A mentor once told me this: Fall in love with feeling like a work in progress. Resist the urge to look polished. You don’t need to pretend you have it all figured out. Nobody does. Embrace your unfinished form. Just commit to getting a better each day and trust where it leads.

Ryan Holiday’s keys to a productive life…
Wake up early.
Limit interruptions.
Make a little progress everyday.
Say no (a lot).
Learn from your mistakes.
Pick yourself back up when you slip.
Waste no time measuring yourself against other people.
Insight of the Day
A word of encouragement during failure is worth more than an hour of praise after success.
Anyone can celebrate a victory. Few can strengthen a person in defeat.
Insight of the Day
Your future is not created by what you do occasionally.
It is created by what you do repeatedly.
Your habits are your destiny.

We have a chronic disease epidemic.
93% of Americans are metabolically unhealthy, and FOOD is the primary cause and the cure.
Yet doctors learn almost nothing about nutrition, the microbiome, or toxins. Until we change this, we’ll keep treating symptoms instead of causes.

Opportunity Cost
Every choice has a price— what you could have done instead?
When using this lens, you can’t afford to sit still.
The cost of overthinking and inaction is the life you could have lived.
The worst decisions are the ones you never make.

Take a chance on yourself for once.
Ignore society. Ignore your friends. Ignore your parents. They want the best for you, but most of the time, they want what's best for them.
If you only do what others approve of, you drastically limit your potential in life.

Fast, lift, sprint, stretch, and meditate.
Build, sell, write, create, invest, and own.
Read, reflect, love, seek truth, and ignore society.
Make these habits.
Say no to everything else.
Avoid debt, jail, addiction, disgrace, shortcuts, and media
Relax.
Victory is assured.

There is a turning point in every young adult’s life.
You can either remain a slave to the code written in your head, or you can go through the painful experience of learning it, deconstructing it, and reprogramming it.
I promise, you don't want to be like everyone else.
"The ideal life would be one where you had a hobby that as a byproduct made you money, you had a hobby that as a byproduct kept you healthy, you had a hobby that as a byproduct made you smarter and more creative."

Aim at something. Discipline yourself. Or suffer the consequence.
