The future isn't written in the stars. There are no guarantees. So claim your adulthood. Be intentional. Get to work. Pick your family. Do the math. Make your own certainty. Don't be defined by what you didn't know or didn't do. You are deciding your life right now.
Don't be defined by what you didn't know or didn't do.
The most important thing in life is to stop saying 'I wish' and start saying 'I will.'

The stories we believe about ourselves can either limit our potential or propel us towards greatness.
The way we perceive the world is heavily influenced by our past experiences and the narratives we tell ourselves.
Civilization is a stream with banks. The stream is sometimes filled with blood from people killing, stealing, shouting and doing the things historians usually record, while on the banks, unnoticed, people build homes, make love, raise children, sing songs, write poetry and even whittle statues. The story of civilization is the story of what happened on the banks.
We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.
The knowledge of the past stays with us to spur us on to new and better things.
Memory is not a perfect recorder of events; it is a reconstructive process that can be influenced by many factors.
Myth is a type of speech chosen by history: it cannot possibly evolve from the 'nature' of things.
