"You can change yourself and you can change the situation but you absolutely cannot change other people. Only they can do that." - Joanna Trollope

“Da Vinci believed that if you have a higher purpose, if you have a raison d'etre, then those principles, that love of truth, beauty, and goodness, that commitment will be your North Star.”

when a bird sits on a branch it isn't afraid of the branch breaking. for the bird's trust was never in the branch, but in it's own wings.

like the bird you too must not place your trust in the hope that every circumstance will hold steady. but rather in your own ability to rise, no matter the outcome.

you will never the see the heights of your capabilities if you don't give yourself the chance to fly. and you will never fly if you don't start trusting your own wings.

"as time goes on more what's left is the effortless flow of emptiness. which doesn't sound appealing until you actually experience it. and then it's like, if you had a choice of living one day that way or a whole life not that way, you'll say i'll take the day" - shinzen young

“When you fit in, you have internal conflict because you’re not being 100% you.

When you’re exceptional, you have external conflict because everyone sees you as different.

Pick one.” — Alex Hormozi

Going beyond thoughts

"If you can't change a situation, change your perception of it. That's where your personal power lies. Either be controlled - or be in control."

Someone once said that a tiger doesn't lose sleep over the opinion of sheep. The tiger isn't swayed by judgements from animals whose behaviour is dictated by social conditioning. The sheep constantly seeks validation, changes direction and loses its own identity; therefore, it remains lost and ill-fated.

which is the song of the year for you?

Born to fight

Some people are just born to fight, I think. It's not that they're born brave. It's not that they're born strong. It's just that the universe has decided that this one, this one will have grit and fire and steel in their blood. And it'll be tested, this cosmic mettle of theirs. They'll face trial after trial, be broken and damaged in countless ways.But this one was born to fight. Maybe it's not the life they would have chosen. Maybe they'd love to lay down their arms. But they were born to fight. It's what they know. It's what they do best. It's all they can do..

2024 might not have been your year, or it might have been your best year yet.

No matter the outcome just remember there’s a lesson behind every downfall. There’s a win behind every loss. If this sounds weird to you, just hear me out: You either win, or you learn. Your first workout isn’t going to be great, your first video isn’t going to be great and your first business attempt isn’t going to be great. But you can’t have your 100th without your first. So however your 2024 has turned out, see it as a lesson and then take them with you into 2025.

“The only way out is to get this thing done, and the only way to get this thing done is to put one foot in front of the other. But when you still have 1,000 km to go, that's terrifying.” — Nedd Brockman

Share it with someone who needs this ✨

@ebookscafe

Some days, the only thing you need to get you out of the really bad place you're in are your hobbies (reading, gaming.......), and in a few months, when you're finally feeling better, these hobbies become distractions from your peak performance in society. Limits are best imposed on everything we do, for nothing is good in entirety.
