Stoicism is not about being emotionless; it is about being in control of your emotions, not letting them control your decisions. - Ryan Holiday

Your information matters as much as your physical diet. Choose carefully what you put in your brain.

Andrew Carnegie famously put it. There’s nothing shameful about sweeping. It’s just another opportunity to excel — and to learn. But you, you’re so busy thinking about the future, you don’t take any pride in the tasks you’re given right now. You just phone it all in, cash your paycheck, and dream of some higher station in life. Or you think, This is just a job, it isn’t who I am, it doesn’t matter. Foolishness. Everything we do matters — whether it’s making smoothies while you save up money or studying for the bar — even after you already achieved the success you sought.

The world is complicated. Things are always changing. We are constantly learning, being exposed to things we didn't know or consider.

Our minds must be flexible and open enough to accommodate this.
