William B. Irvine
“if we seek social status, we give other people power over us: We have to do things calculated to make them admire us, and we have to refrain from doing things that will trigger their disfavor.”
William B. Irvine, A Guide to the Good Life: The Ancient Art of Stoic Joy

William B. Irvine
“the easiest way for us to gain happiness is to learn how to want the things we already have.”
William B. Irvine, A Guide to the Good Life: The Ancient Art of Stoic Joy

James Clear
“The mark of whether you are made for a task is not whether you love it but whether you can handle the pain of the task easier than most people. When are you enjoying yourself while other people are complaining? The work that hurts you less than it hurts others is the work you were made to do.”
James Clear, Atomic Habits: An Easy and Proven Way to Build Good Habits and Break Bad Ones

Keigo Higashino
“Which is harder: devising an unsolvable problem, or solving that problem?”
Keigo Higashino, The Devotion of Suspect X

Yuval Noah Harari
“How many young college graduates have taken demanding jobs in high-powered firms, vowing that they will work hard to earn money that will enable them to retire and pursue their real interests when they are thirty-five? But by the time they reach that age, they have large mortgages, children to school, houses in the suburbs that necessitate at least two cars per family, and a sense that life is not worth living without really good wine and expensive holidays abroad. What are they supposed to do, go back to digging up roots? No, they double their efforts and keep slaving away.”
Yuval Noah Harari, Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind
