See All“Entitled people (…) avoid rejecting anything because doing so make them or someone else feel bad.”
The Subtle Art Of Not Giving A F*Ck • Mark Manson“Will you not allow that I have as much of the spirit of prophecy in me as the swans? For they, when they perceive that they must die, having sung all their life long, do then sing more than ever, rejoicing in the thought that they are about to go away to the god whose ministers they are.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“If you want to be proud of yourself, then do things in which you can take pride”
The Therapeutic Process: Essays and Lectures • Karen Horney“For in order to command well, we should know how to submit; and he who submits with a good grace will some time become worthy of commanding.”
On The Laws • Marcus Tullius Cicero“Order is not enough. You can’t just be stable, and secure, and unchanging, because there are still vital and important new things to be learned. Nonetheless, chaos can be too much. You can’t long tolerate being swamped and overwhelmed beyond your capacity to cope while you are learning what you still need to know. Thus, you need to place one foot in what you have mastered and understood and the other in what you are currently exploring and mastering. Then you have positioned yourself where the terror of existence is under control and you are secure, but where you are also alert and engaged. That is where there is something new to master and some way that you can be improved. That is where meaning is to be found.””
12 Rules For Life: An Antidote To Chaos • Jordan B. Peterson
