Plant the seeds of greatness in your mind. - James Clear

The negative examples always spread farther and faster than the positive examples. In a world this big, you'll find at least one negative example every day.

Don't let the existence of a bad example ruin your faith in the world. Good news is always quieter than bad news. Good behavior rarely stirs the pot or ignites emotion.

But no matter. We need role models all the same. Continue living the best way you know how.

If you are bummed by the state of the world, go build something.

Read books that are relevant to what you want to achieve and reading will never seem boring.
