5 questions to live a more thoughtful life:
β’ Where are you pursuing comfort when you should be pursuing discomfort?
Discomfort forces growth. Comfort stagnates it.
We choose comfort when we:
- Procrastinate
- Are distracted
- Compulsively worry
- Fear embarrassment
- Run from commitment
- Take on too many projects

Set realistic expectations and create space for creativity.

β’ In what ways have you yet to accept the fact that youβre who you are and not the person you think you ought to be?
We focus on the past.
We are our own worst critic.
No one cares what you do.
Acknowledge the flaws, but then look forward and not what is or has been.

β’ How would you spend your days differently if you didnβt care so much about seeing your actions reach fruition?
We strive towards the end goal, but are we enjoying the present?
Your time on earth can be wiped away in a second.
Make the most of this second.
Make it count.
