Sleep is an act of character. - Ryan Holiday

You can't expect to get better at something you don't actually do. You have to get your reps in.

Those who have subdued their ego understand that it doesn’t degrade you when others treat you poorly; it degrades them.

Most of us are afraid of dying. But sometimes this fear begs the question: To protect what exactly? For a lot of people the answer is: hours of television, gossiping, gorging, wasting potential, reporting to a boring job, and on and on and on. Except, in the strictest sense, is this actually a life? Is this worth gripping so tightly and being afraid of losing? It doesn’t sound like it.
