Don’t take criticism from someone you wouldn’t take advice from. - Jim Kwik

The fastest learners on the planet are children, and that’s partly because they don’t care what others think of them. They have no shame around failing. They will fall 300 times and get up 300 times in the course of learning to walk, and don’t feel embarrassed; they just know they want to walk. As we get older, we have a harder time staying this open. We might take a singing lesson, or maybe a coding class, and if we hit a flat note or make a mistake as we learn, we shrink or stop.

To sum it up, passion is what lights you up inside.

if we never let our mind wander or be bored for a moment, we pay a price — poor memory, mental fog, and fatigue.
