A major cheat code in life: Being a pleasure to deal with. Kind when others aren’t. Calm when things go sideways. Reliable under pressure. Intelligence alone is overrated. Be someone who lightens the load for folks around them. People value people who make their lives easier.
Blake Burgex.comThe most underrated skill in business: Being easy to work with. Not the smartest person. Not the most talented. Just the person everyone wants on their team. Returns emails quickly. Doesn't create drama. Makes other people's jobs easier. Shows up prepared. While everyone's trying to be impressive, just be helpful. It pays better.

"The prize for doing great work is that you get to do more of it."
There's something humbling about recognizing that truth isn't something we create or bend to our preferences, but rather something we receive and discover. When truth belongs to God, it gives us a foundation that transcends our limited perspectives.
I feel thin, sort of stretched, like butter scraped over too much bread.

“Once you grow up, you realize you don’t want to be crazy in love.
You want to be calm in love,
stable in love, patient in love,
understood in love, safe in love.
Your partner should give you peace of mind and reassurance, not constant little heart attacks and high anxiety.”
