Jon Acuff
“If taking a break from social media sounds intimidating, remember, you’ve already done this for an entire year. It was called 1997.”
Jon Acuff, Finish: Give Yourself the Gift of Done

Paulo Coelho
“One day you will wake up & there won’t be any more time to do the things you’ve always wanted. Do it now.”
Paulo Coelho

“Elite students climb confidently until they reach a level of competition sufficiently intense to beat their dreams out of them. Higher education is the place where people who had big plans in high school get stuck in fierce rivalries with equally smart peers over conventional careers like management consulting and investment banking. For the privilege of being turned into conformists, students (or their families) pay hundreds of thousands of dollars in skyrocketing tuition that continues to outpace inflation. Why are we doing this to ourselves?”
Peter Thiel, Zero to One: Notes on Startups, or How to Build the Future

Helen Keller
“When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.”
Helen Keller

Marilyn Monroe
“Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.”
Marilyn Monroe
