“An emotional response to a situation is the single greatest barrier to power, a mistake that will cost you a lot more than any temporary satisfaction you might gain by expressing your feelings.” ~Robert Greene
If you’re not moving towards something, you’ll fall backwards.
I don’t want to be like the majority of people, who in their 50s, 60s, and beyond stay the same. They’re just as dumb as in their youth, but with the added feature of age, now more hard-headed and “stuck in their ways.”
I want to constantly evolve, improve, get to know myself, challenge myself, and most of all- I never want to stop playing.
These roles we act out, why take them serious?
At any given moment you can rewrite the script to your life, but most won’t. They surmise that what they are is fixed, and their shitty life is authentic, because it’s what they know.
LUNACY.
We care too much about things that matter too little and when we’re alone, if we allow ourselves this luxury, we realize we don’t understand ourselves.
The human animal is a performer by nature. We do it to be accepted, we do it because it feels good to belong, to show off, to be validated.
However, you’re also a writer, director, and a producer.
If you don’t like how your life is going, change it.
Live out a new movie. The one bad habit most people share is dogmatic thinking. You assume this is it, this is all there is.
What if, for the next 30 days you reset?
Don’t know anything, don’t have assumptions, be new.
Dare to approach the world like a child, drop your bullshit beliefs, and see what happens. If you want a new life- this is really all there is to it.
