Cut the crap. Literally, cut the unnecessary distractions out of your life—delete apps, unfriend and unfollow toxic people, stop committing to activities you don't care about. Life is too short.

Growth is destructive. You can’t become someone new without destroying who you used to be.

Indecision is itself a kind of decision—and almost always a bad one.

Importa más que conseguir algo imposible, el trabajo que uno se da por obtenerlo.

Major cheat code for life: The ability to reset fast. You can start over at 10am, 2pm, or 6:30 at night. Zero reason to let one bad hour carry into the rest of your day. You can’t control what hits you. But you can control how long you sit in it.
Resilience is a superpower.

Procrastination promises relief but delivers regret. Action avoids regret and delivers relief.

You cannot maximize happiness. Happiness is not a permanent state. It is a moment, a spike in a long, jagged line moving through time. The more you try to make it last, the faster it disappears.

My IG feed is flooded w/ "Write your book in one day" AI writing & marketing ads. Using AI to write your book or song is like your folks taking you to Disney, you stop at the front gate, dad buys you some mouse ears and you go home. no rides, thrills, lines or gained experience.

Most people quit because they forget that you have to be bad at something before you can be good at it. It's so obvious. You suck. Of course you're not going to win in 2 weeks. But if you can learn to enjoy extended periods of failure, you will make it very, very far in life.
