Our stillness depends on our ability to slow down and choose not to be angry, to run on different fuel. - Ryan Holiday

When we remove ego, we’re left with what is real. What replaces ego is humility, yes — but rock-hard humility and confidence. Whereas ego is artificial, this type of confidence can hold weight. Ego is stolen. Confidence is earned. Ego is self-anointed, its swagger is artifice. One is girding yourself, the other gaslighting. It’s the difference between potent and poisonous.

As our island of knowledge grows, so does the shore of our ignorance.

Think progress, not perfection.
