Remain playful as your responsibilities increase. It's easy to become serious when people and results depend on you, but nearly everyone's performance improves when they proceed lightly through the world.

People often think that something “far off” will make them happy. That moving to a new place or getting a different job or meeting someone new will change how they feel. But happiness will always be withheld if you believe it is somewhere else. The secret is to find happiness in the people and places that are close to you. See the beauty in the things that are nearby.

Earlier this week I read a line that stood out to me, "Your goal in life should be to reduce the amount of time it takes you to get out of a bad state."

The ability to bounce back quickly is a key skill in life.

My wife once told me, "When you're five, you can be mad for a day. When you're ten, you can be mad for an hour. By the time you're thirty, you get ten minutes—and then you have to move on."

Life is full of moments of frustration and disappointment. Growth and maturity is learning to pull yourself out of a bad state faster.
