You are in the great game - points counter points

Today you are in the Great Game. And this moment you have right now might as well be the most important moment in the universe.  Go out and live fully now.

Achievements are great. It is satisfying to accomplish something. It feels good to win. And many achievements make the world a better place, too.

But also remember to ask, "What am I really trying to accomplish here?" You may realize the goal is not to write a best-selling book or earn that promotion or get into medical school, but rather to build a life you enjoy. And there are many versions of a life you enjoy.

It is often the case that if you can release the narrative of "I have to do this" to be happy, then a different (but equally lovely) life is waiting for you."

"I ask myself: are defeats necessary?

Well, necessary or not, they happen. When we first begin fighting for a dream, we have no experience and make mistakes. The secret of life, though, is to fall seven times and to get up eight times."

Patience and art of not taking things personally

If you are patient in one moment of anger, you will avoid one hundred days of sorrow.”

- old chinese proverb

"The recipe for frustration is taking on something that requires a whole person, but only giving it half your time.

Look at what you're trying to do. What is required? Some things can only be done well when they are pursued with full effort."

"It's hard to learn when you feel defensive.

Relax. You are capable and you can recover from whatever you face.

You can accept feedback without taking it personally. What is this moment teaching you?"

"All the water in the world cannot sink a ship unless it gets inside the ship. All the negativity in the world cannot sink a person unless it gets inside the mind."

"The secret of being happy consists of knowing how to enjoy yourself—enjoy being at table, in bed, enjoy standing up, sitting down, enjoy the nearest ray of sunshine, the slightest bit of landscape: in other words, love everything."

Psychologist and author Adam Grant shares a question for sparking better conversation... "When you meet someone new, don't ask: What do you do? It limits what people share about themselves to a job description. Instead, try: What do you love to do? It ignites curiosity and invites people to express their distinctive interests."
