An idea from Atomic Habits:
When you fall in love with the process rather than the product, you don’t have to wait to give yourself permission to be happy. You can be satisfied anytime your system is running.

Long-term thinking changes your short-term actions.
-When you intend to invest long-term, it changes which stocks you buy.
-When you intend to be in a relationship long-term, it changes the type of person you look for.
-When you intend to stay injury-free for the long term, it changes the type of workouts you do.
Build what lasts.

Being curious and excited can take you far, especially over the long arc of a life. The person who is a voracious lifelong learner will figure it out eventually. A strong reader with a healthy dose of curiosity and a willingness to try things is hard to stop.

On funerals, loss, grief, friendship, and support:
It's not about knowing what to say. It's about being there when nobody knows what to say. The only thing people need to hear is, "You are not alone." And that doesn't require words. It just requires your presence.

There's only one lesson that every child needs to learn from failure: to try again.

Adversity, discomfort, struggles, difficulties, challenges, hardships, setbacks - these are gifts in your youth .. it helps you learn how to adjust, deal with, be adaptable and learn how to get inner-strength, for the best of the bunch it makes them so resilient & creates a inner love ❤️ that becomes unbearable - it’s how you actually build the purest form of confidence… and yet the last 30 years of parenting and societial norms have demonized “losing” … this video really matters to me .. it will lead to more people understanding this deep truth and ultimately mean that some young children today will end up happier versus more confused and indifferent! Pls share this with a parent that has a “competitive kid” … IT DOES MATTER - that’s the point! LIFES A GAME - the sooner you learn how to deal with losing the better - and the worst way to deal with losing is by believing “it doesn’t matter” 🔑🔑🔑🔑🔑✅❤️

Be forgiving with your past self. What's done is done. Take the lessons with you and release the guilt.
Be strict with your present self. Win the moment in front of you right now.
Be flexible with your future self. There are many paths to success. You don't need life to be a certain way to live well.

Hard times don’t last forever.
There are only three outcomes:
– You quit
– It gets easier
– Or you get better
But no matter what, they end.
“A hero can be anyone. Even a man doing something as simple and reassuring as putting a coat around a young boy's shoulders to let him know that the world hadn't ended.”
