It makes me think of this quote too:

“Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage.”—Anais Nin

How remarkable our lives are, is limited by how courageous we live.

The more courageous we live, the more doors we open. The more doors we open, the more we expose ourselves to life-enhancing opportunities.

Yeah im with you I was in the same mindset at first

But when I thought about it more and more there’s always a secondary goal that someone is trying to achieve and unfortunately it’s through hurt

It reminds me of this quote:

“There is only one good, knowledge, and one evil, ignorance.”—Diogenes Laertius

If people knew enough, they’d do the right thing.

Suchhhhh a good quote

I’d be happy with great, good, okay, or decent outcomes. All of those are better than nothing. But the obsession with perfect stops you from getting any of those.

I feel that—same with me!

I never over planned or analyzed it, just dipped my toe in and kept going

Absolutely!!! One of my favorite sayings/quotes

Glad it resonates with you 🙌🙌

I love the concept of failing fast, thanks for adding that

Definitely needs to be more widely understood

I’m right there with you

Achieving/reaching for things/having a purpose/having meaning is the magic of life for me

If I was just wandering around not trying to pursue anything I’d be more anxious

Yup that’s definitely true haha!

Hahaa 😂

Hope it resonated with you

One of my favorite things he’s said!

😭😭

LOL Was waiting for that one

I relate to this more than you know!!

I used to have such a bad habit of making everything I do all or nothing. I never made breathing room, or room for grey area.

So happy to see the mindset change is going great for you!

Keep it up 🙌😤🥳

James Clear has a great quote that aligns with this:

“If you're not working hard, ideas don’t matter. The best idea is worthless without execution. If you're already working hard, ideas are crucial. Most effort is wasted on mediocre ideas.”

If you’re not in motion and taking action then your ideas are irrelevant. Ideas only have value when they are brought to real life.

Honestly, needed to be more hustle-y I guess :/

Glad you found it thought-provoking at least🙌

Hopefully we can get a good discussion going in a future post

Wow that is super disappointing, was really getting into all the great comments

Saw your comment notification and quickly opened the app to see this :(

Happy to hear that!! Can’t wait to share with you 😄😄

Dude wow what a good song

I saw 7 minutes and got overwhelmed, but it’s actually so well done

It packs those lyrics in in a minute, and then you’ve got the perfect sound for like 5 more minutes to reflect on what you just heard

Thanks for the recommendation! 🙏

Def going to check out the rest of the album now

Haha what a coincidence!!

Thanks for sharing that wisdom. And that last chunk is particularly sticking with me: Your life is for you and it waits

LOL 😂😭

I loveeeee that concept

I think James Clear talks about something similar with habits. He called them “identity based habits”

So instead of saying “I want to lose 10 pounds” you say “I want to be someone who’s healthy”

Thanks for sharing that! Definitely great to keep in mind

😵‍💫😵‍💫

Gonna have to chew on that one for a little
