"Don't spend too much time around someone whose primary way of engaging with life is as a martyr. When suffering becomes your identity, you only see the hard parts of life." - James Clear

“If your choices are beautiful,” Epictetus said, “so too will you be.”

It’s simple and it’s true. You are what your choices make you, nothing more and nothing less.

Seneca would say that he actually pitied people who have never experienced challenges.
“You have passed through life without an opponent,” he said,
“No one can ever know what you are capable of, not even you.”
Epictetus said when a challenge is put in front of you, think of yourself as an athlete getting paired with a tough competitor.
You want to be Olympic-class? “This is going to take some sweat to accomplish,” he said.

"Many of the best things in life grow along the way.

Start hanging out with someone and love grows along the way.
Start exercising and motivation grows along the way.
Start writing and inspiration grows along the way.
Start now and let the feeling follow."

"Your enemy is not some external monster.
Your enemy is within. It's the voice that tells you you're not good enough. It's the voice that tells you to play it safe.
It's the voice that says, 'Maybe tomorrow.'
This enemy is relentless. This enemy is cunning.
This enemy will do everything in its power to keep you from achieving your dreams. But you can defeat it.
You can silence it. You can push it aside and get to work. Remember, the enemy thrives on inaction.
The enemy hates it when you take action. So take action. Do something, anything, to move toward your goals.
Every step you take, every word you write, every brushstroke you make is a victory over the enemy. Keep taking those steps. Keep writing those words. Keep making those brushstrokes. And eventually, you will win." - Steven Pressfield

"And part of maturity is realising that other people are not mind readers, even those who love you and care about you.It’s on you to reach out, talk about how you feel, and to explain yourself. Everybody is busy with their own lives and is caught up in their own issues & problems, amidst all that you can’t expect them to magically be in tune with your every need and emotion. So Communicate."
