“Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.”

43) Challenge the status quo.
Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.”
– Mark Twain
44) Spend some time to come up with a really fucking cool bucket list and start working your way through it.
45) Make more time to spend with your friends and family.
46) Get your hands dirty.

58) Dream bigger. Most people don’t think they can accomplish big things, so they settle for mediocrity. Don’t be like everyone else.

60) Save more of your money. Trust me on this.
61) Read The War of Art by Steven Pressfield.
