In fact, its human nature.
Every interaction you have with someone matters.
We are all strings of a web and when one moves, its felt by everyone.

Deal with your crap.
Your problems are endless energy drains that arent giving you an appreciating return.
It is a bad way to invest your power.
All of the time you are spending thinking through made up issues is only creating more worry and distraction.
Nobody that had any kind of impact on the world sat around idling like this forever.
you gotta fix yourself first.

Your life is on pause when youre constantly treading water.
Dont worry about your purpose.
You do not have just one reason to be alive.
Your purpose shifts each day, each hour.
Youre doing what youre meant to be doing right now.
Dont strive to be the wisest one in the room.
The wisest person in the room is the one who asks more questions than they make statements.
They are infinitely open-minded.
There is always something to learn, and everyone is a teacher.
The wisest leaders guide people to discovering what they already know.
Ask yourself every morning: What can I do today to change my life forever?
I ask myself this every day, and then I write a list.
What you must realize is that changing your life for the better changes everyones lives for the better.
You must start here.
Decide what you’ve got the option to live without.
I could live out of a suitcase happily.
I have, and would again.
I left New York when I was 21 and never looked back.
I dont need a new car.
I dont need to be in style.
Knowing what I can live without is the most empowering thing I have ever afforded myself.
Because of this, my time and money can go toward things that matter.
Im not saying give up on the things that make you who you are.
Im saying figure out what you’re free to live without, and what you cant.
In doing so, you create space in your life.
You open up hours of your days for possibility.
You are no longer desperately trying to impress people, youve humbly accepted your humanness.
Now, the real work can begin.
Start where you are, use what you have, do what you might.
Start with the advantages already in your corner.
Use the gifts that are already yours.
Start with the people who are closest to you.
Show them unconditional kindness.
Make something out of nothing.
This is where the seeds are planted.
Treat every person like they have something to teach you.
Everything that youve ever become is the result of what other people have done.
Treat everyone as though they have something to each you, because they do.
This is how you grow.
Be better than other people.
Strive to be better than others, always.
There is such an oddly negative connotation to this phrase.
Maybe one day, theyll come around too.
Take your 20s seriously.
You dont have off time.
You dont have years you get to throw away.
It also disregards the fact that to live the life you want, you better be preparing for it.
You will conform to your surroundings.
The essence of life is movement, and fluidity.
This is why zen spaces are cleared out, why people who are accomplished keep small social circles.
Your potential is infinite, but your energy is limited.
Decide what youre going to spend it on now.
It is to patch your wounds so that you are not infected by it.
Immunizing yourself is the ability to be surrounded by it, and to not succumb.
Focus on what you have to give, not what you have to get.
A lot of people say they want to do what they love because they are lazy.
They want to take the easy way out.
You will not always be happy doing what you think you love to do.
Work is still work.
A job is still a job.
Effort must be exerted to sustain it.
Sometimes it feels like too much.
And that is the kind of focus that will power you through the hard moments.
You dont actually want to take the safe lane, and youll realize this when you get there.
Start with your partner, start with today, start with every person you see.
You will change the world with what you do every day.
