Fear

Don’t let the weight of fear weigh down the joy of curiosity. Fear is really false evidence appearing real.

Knowledge of oneself

To resist the influence of others, knowledge of oneself is most important.

Busy

Of the many, many excuses people use to rationalize why they can’t do something, the excuse, “I am too busy,” is not only the most inauthentic, it is also the laziest. I don’t believe in, “too busy.” Busy is a decision. We do things we want to do, period. If we say we are too busy, it is shorthand for, “not important enough.” It means you would rather be doing something else that you consider more important.

Reality

[…] enter the real world as soon as you can. […] I mean for you to get off of social media, to get out of the big cities, and to re-connect with what’s real: Nature, your soul, your inner child. Respect yourself. Most of the world is asleep today, playing a small role in a gigantic illusion. You don’t have to be. You can choose a different life. It’s all within. You will know the answer when you take the time to find yourself and trust yourself.

Overshadowed

Not to live as if you had endless years ahead of you. Death overshadows you. While you’re alive and able—be good.

~ Marcus Aurelius
