The secret to self-discipline is to avoid environments that make it difficult, and create environments that make it effortless.
You weren’t born to work 40 hours a week doing something you hate, numb your mind with endless scrolling, and wake up one day wondering where the time went.
When you’re bored, pick up a book instead of your phone and see where that simple habit shift it takes you.
The gym, long walks, and a personal project that you can pour your heart into will solve most of your problems.
The best periods of my life always came after a period of getting absolutely fed up with the lack of progress I was making.
If you don't choose a struggle, you will be assigned one.
Staying calm in a situation that used to stress you out is a powerful sign of growth.
It’s incredible how many people still believe you need a college degree to see any form of success. The conditioning runs deep.
If you don’t know what you want, you will be told what you want, and you will believe it.
Most of your problems aren’t problems. They’re a temporary emotional wave that normalizes with time.
Your problems never go away, you just get better at solving them.
You cannot advance to a higher phase of life until you learn the lesson that the current phase is trying to teach you.
If thinking about your future doesn't get you excited, it's time to set new goals.
If you can't change the situation, you can change your perspective of the situation.
You feel bad because the person you want to become is watching your moves, and they don't like what they see.
One meaningful project.
One hour of focused work.
One day at a time, without waver.
That's the secret you're looking for.

That's the secret you're looking for.
Normalize not having an opinion on things you don’t understand.
Sometimes a simple “fuck it, I’ll make it work” is all you need to start the snowball of momentum into a better life.
Force yourself into uncomfortable situations so you don't end up being 50 years old with the emotional maturity of a 15-year-old.
