There are two ways to grow: by adding or by shedding. Do you need to add something or do you need to shed something? - James Clear

When considering a new project or opportunity, one of the first questions to ask is, "How do I want to spend my days?"

Make as few choices as possible that violate your answer.

Many opportunities seem exciting but actually give you less of the life you want.

Behavior that is incongruent with the self will not last. You may want more money, but if your identity is someone who consumes rather than creates, then you’ll continue to be pulled toward spending rather than earning.

The events of your past are fixed. The meaning of your past is not.

The influence of every experience in your life is determined by the meaning you assign to it.

Assign a more useful meaning to your past and it becomes easier to take a more useful action in the present.
