“Unfortunately, our world doesn’t foster a healthy environment for our brain. Before Jim Kwik provides a road map to become limitless, he indicts the four growing villains that are challenging our capacity to think, focus, learn, grow, and be fully human. The first is digital deluge—the unending flood of information in a world of finite time and unfair expectations that leads to overwhelm, anxiety, and sleeplessness. Drowning in data and rapid change, we long for strategies and tools to regain some semblance of productivity, performance, and peace of mind. The second villain is digital distraction. The fleeting ping of digital dopamine pleasure replaces our ability to sustain the attention necessary for deep relationship, deep learning, or deep work.”

made a comparison between nobility of sacrifice and happiness of
rebellion to find out which one is nobler and more beautiful; but until
now I have distilled only one truth out of the whole matter, and this
truth is sincerity, which makes all our deeds beautiful and
honourable.”
― Kahlil Gibran

“Ma Montagne est ainsi. Attachement au sol et aspiration au départ. Lieu de refuge, lieu de passage. Terre du lait et du miel et du sang. Ni paradis ni enfer. Purgatoire.”

“A meaningful life can be extremely satisfying even in the midst of hardship, whereas a meaningless life is a terrible ordeal no matter how comfortable it is.”
