When a creative idea comes to you- a thought, a tune, an image- put your phone down. Step away from what you're doing. Write it down, think it through, commit it to memory. There are a hundred distractions that will make you forget that idea and it may never come back again.

You can work towards your goals while still feeling rested and having joy in your life. A healthy life is not all hustle, and neither is it all hedonism.

GN. Went to a place I'd never been, no Google maps, no goal. Just aimlessly walking and discovering things along the way. I feel like that should be a requisite weekly well-being activity for all.

Emotional maturity: the ability to take pain without lashing out, and maintaining compassion. I'm still practicing too.

How to focus on the things you want most -------------- We only have so much time in our day. Yet a lot of that is filled with trivial tasks and chores. But you also need time to focus on the things you really want in your life. The problem is, we often want too many things, and end up not doing any of them. So: 1) Write down the top 10 things you want more of in your life- time with family, financial freedom, travel with friends, physical fitness, etc. 2) Now choose the top 3, and forget about the rest. 3) Allocate time each day to do something that will get you closer to achieving those 3 things. 4) Once you've achieved one of the 3, replace it with another thing from your list. Rinse and repeat. Consistency will make it a habit, and a good habit achieves goals. A few years from now, you'll have far fewer regrets, and you'll thank yourself for putting in the time to do what's most important to you.

You don’t need a five-year plan. You need a five-minute moment of honesty about what you truly want.

You’re not lazy. You’re likely in transition. And transitions require grief, not goals. Once you come to terms with the old parts of you that are ready to die, then you can start taking positive action.

Developing focus and willpower is like working out a muscle. This is my daily mental workout. Try it for a while. The difference will be noticeable.

Maybe you're on a hard path because you have a higher calling. And...if you choose to do what's harder your calling also becomes higher. Either way, set your aim and walk toward it, you're stronger than you know.

As Monday begins, just a reminder we can’t outgrow discomfort. But we can grow our capacity to be in it, learn from it, and still act with integrity. So say good morning to that person you don't like at the office too 😁

There are stages in the 'maturity' of an adult, based on adult development theory. And the more developed you are, the more you see, the more you feel, and the more you hold complexity... ...while still being able to make decisions with clarity.

When in doubt, just produce volume, don't go for quality. If you learn fast and often you'll end up having better quality than if you sat and thought about how to improve quality.

I've worked with many starts-ups and individuals, and there is a common factor amongst those that fail to achieve their goals: They get excited about the vision. But they’re not honest about the current reality. https://tkrok.substack.com/p/tension-that-fuels-transformation

You're never going to 'find' yourself because you and the world are always evolving. Just walk in the direction where you feel the greatest sense of purpose.

Always hear about the guy who spent 10,000 BTC ($1.11 billion now) on pizza, but not the guy who received it. "Following the transaction, Jeremy Sturdivant (the recipient) spent the bitcoin on travel and personal expenses, viewing Bitcoin as an experimental currency rather than a long-term investment."

Came home from work exhausted. Really didn't want to work out. Worked out anyway. Now feel energized. Don't let Type 1 Thinking override what your Type 2 Thinking knows is best for you.
