Maturity is what happens when one learns to only give a fuck about what’s truly fuckworthy. - Mark Manson

Strength isn’t being tough. It’s choosing not to turn into an asshole when you have every right to be.

The vast majority of your life will be boring and not noteworthy, and that’s okay.

Values underlie everything we are and do. If what we value is unhelpful, if what we consider success/failure is poorly chosen, then everything based upon those values — the thoughts, the emotions, the day-to-day feelings — will all be out of whack. Everything we think and feel about a situation ultimately comes back to how valuable we perceive it to be.
