Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful. — William Morris
“One easy way to show you care about others is to ask them questions about their life.
What are they excited about?
What are they working on?
What are they hoping for?
Simply asking the question and listening thoughtfully is an act of generosity. You're giving them the gift of attention.”

“Chase your desired lifestyle, not your desired title. People are blinded by status and labels. Once you release the need for a specific title, there is almost always an easier path to living your preferred lifestyle.”

“It's hard to build momentum if you keep dividing your attention.”

“There are many elements of living a good life, but the first and most foundational is to love yourself and enjoy spending time with yourself.
Go do things on your own so you learn to trust your mind and view it as a welcome companion. If someone declared, "Tomorrow you must spend the day alone" the hope is that you would reply, "That sounds like a good day!"
The person who is at ease within finds every other space larger and more enjoyable.”
