Only a fool goes with their first thought. A wise person takes time to contemplate. - Ryan Holiday

A good person dyes events with his own color . . . and turns whatever happens to his own benefit.

History, you must understand, is not about the past. It’s a lens for understanding the present (that’s why we fight over what gets taught). It’s way of predicting, even determining the future.

If we can focus on making clear what parts of our day are within our control and what parts are not, we will not only be happier, we will have a distinct advantage over other people who fail to realize they are fighting an unwinnable battle.
