“Your true self does not speak in words or banal phrases. Its voice comes from deep within you, from the substrata or your psyche, from something embedded physically within you. It emanates from your uniqueness, and it communicates through sensations and powerful desires that seem to transcend you. You cannot ultimately understand why you are drawn to certain activities or forms of knowledge. This cannot really be verbalized or explained. It is simply a fact of nature.”
Robert Greene, The Daily Laws (Page 115)
“Everyone weighs sleep against other priorities. This plasticity is what gives scope for the individual to be exploited, by herself and others, as sleep’s nonessential component is eroded. Sleep inequalities persist because their consequences can be deferred – but they cannot be deferred indefinitely.”
Jonathan White, Aeon
“A victory over oneself is a bigger and a better victory than a victory over thousands of people in a score of battles. Those who have achieved victory over other people can be defeated in future battles, but those who have achieved victory over themselves become victors forever.”
Dhammapada, A Calendar of Wisdom (Page 101)
“When you are in company, do not forget what you have found out when you were thinking in solitude; and when you are meditating in solitude, think about what you found out by communicating with other people.”
Leo Tolstoy, A Calendar of Wisdom (Page 100)
“When people talk about “living the dream” they generally don’t mean having a conversation with a talking crow or giving a speech in the nude. Rather, they mean making life choices that aim to satisfy their true desires, and not simply accepting the choices made for them by circumstance.”
Stuart Mangrum
“Criticizing is easy and fast. Creating is difficult and slow. The two hours you spent on a book or movie usually took two years to produce. Anyone can tear down someone else’s work. The true test of insight is whether you can help them improve it or build something of your own.”
Adam Grant, Twitter
“Good marketing can sell once, but only a good product can sell twice. In the long run, your performance reverts to the value you provide.”

“If you can’t solve the problem in front of you, solve an easier version of it—and then see if that solution offers you a starting point, or a beacon, in the full-blown problem. Maybe it does.”
