“You are in danger of living a life so comfortable and soft, that you will die without ever realizing your true potential.”

“One of history's few iron laws is that luxuries tend to become necessities and to spawn new obligations. Once people get used to a certain luxury, they take it for granted. Then they begin to count on it. Finally they reach a point where they can't live without it.”
― Yuval Noah Harari, Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind

“Nothing compares to squats. You can do leg presses, but why? Why do inferior movement, why do a movement that looks good but produces hardly any results. I don't care how much weight you use, I'd rather do 3 good plates and get in 15, 20 reps and reap the benefit. Please don't want to do whats hard, they want to do whats easy, what looks showy”
― Tom Platz

“Here are a few key guidelines to consider: Spend less than you earn—invest the surplus—avoid debt. Do simply this and you’ll wind up rich. Not just in money. Carrying debt is as appealing as being covered with leeches and has much the same effect. Take out your sharpest knife and start scraping the little bloodsuckers off. If your lifestyle matches—or god forbid exceeds—your income, you are no more than a gilded slave. Avoid fiscally irresponsible people. Never marry one or otherwise give him or her access to your money. Avoid investment advisors. Too many have only their own interests at heart. By the time you know enough to pick a good one, you know enough to handle your finances yourself. It’s your money and no one will care for it better than you. You own the things you own and they in turn own you. Money can buy many things, but nothing more valuable than your freedom. Life choices are not always about the money, but you should always be clear about the financial impact of the choices you make.”
