Book cover for High Performance Habits: How Extraordinary People Become That Way
Just because people want to put things on your plate because you’re good doesn’t mean you should let them. What’s achievable is not always what’s important.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
“The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Paul Tough
“What matters most in a child's development, they say, is not how much information we can stuff into her brain in the first few years. What matters, instead, is whether we are able to help her develop a very different set of qualities, a list that includes persistence, self-control, curiosity, conscientiousness, grit and self-confidence.”
Paul Tough, How Children Succeed: Grit, Curiosity, and the Hidden Power of Character

Roger Ebert
“I believe that if, at the end of it all, according to our abilities, we have done something to make others a little happier, and something to make ourselves a little happier, that is about the best we can do. To make others less happy is a crime. To make ourselves unhappy is where all crime starts. We must try to contribute joy to the world. That is true no matter what our problems, our health, our circumstances. We must try.”
Roger Ebert

Kate Braestrup
“A marriage, willy-nilly, requires you to trust that your spouse will tell your story truthfully and lovingly when you are no longer around to tell it yourself.”
Kate Braestrup, Here If You Need Me

Ally Condie
“It is strange how we hold on to the pieces of the past while we wait for our futures.”
Ally Condie, Matched
