1. Atomic Habits,
@JamesClear âEvery action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become.
No single instance will transform your beliefs, but as the votes build up, so does the evidence of your identity.â
2. The Daily Stoic,
@RyanHoliday âNever be so tied to your former acquaintances and friends that you are pulled down to their level.
You must choose to be loved by these friends and remain the same person or become a better person at the cost of those friendsâ
3. Navalmanack,
@naval âSeek wealth, not money or status.
Wealth is having assets that earn while you sleep.
Money is how we transfer time and wealth.
You will never get wealthy renting out your time.â
4. Turning Pro,
@SPressfield âFear is the primary color of the amateur.
Fear of failure. Fear of success. Fear of looking foolish. Fear of underachieving.
The amateur fears that if he turns pro and lives out his calling, he will have to live up to who he really is.â
5. The Obstacle is the Way,
@RyanHoliday âThe obstacle in the path becomes the path. Never forget, within every obstacle is an opportunity to improve our condition.
The impediment to action advances action.
What stands in the way becomes the way.â
6. 4-Hour Work Week,
@tferriss âOne cannot be free from the stresses of a speed-and size-obsessed culture until you are free from the materialistic addictions,
time-famine mind-set,
and comparative impulses that created it in the first place.â
7. The War of At,
@SPressfield âThe more scared we are of a work or calling, the more sure we can be that we have to do it.
Itâs better to be in the arena, getting stomped by the bull, than to be up in the stands or out in the parking lot.â
8. Stillness is the Key,
@RyanHoliday âStillness. To be steady while the world spins around you.
You can't escape, with your body, problems that exist in your mind and soul. You can't run away from your choicesâyou can only fix them with better choices.â
9. The Bhagavad Gita
âIt is better to live your own destiny imperfectly than to live an imitation of somebody elseâs life with perfectionâ
10. The ONE Thing, Gary Keller
âActivity is often unrelated to productivity.
Busyness rarely takes care of business.
Success is about doing the right thing.
Not about doing everything right.â
11. Greenlights,
@McConaughey âKnowing who we are is hard.
Eliminate who we're not first, and we'll find ourselves where we need to be.
Sometimes which choice you make is not as important as making a choice and committing to itâ
12. Think Like a Monk,
@JayShettyIW âIt is impossible to build oneâs own happiness on the unhappiness of othersâ
13. Ego is the Enemy,
@RyanHoliday âWhen we remove ego, weâre left with what is real.
What replaces ego is humility, yesâbut rock-hard humility and confidence.
Whereas ego is artificial, this type of confidence can hold weight.
Ego is stolen.
Confidence is earned.â
14. Do the Work,
@SPressfield A child has no trouble believing the unbelievable, nor does the genius or the madman.
Itâs only you and I, with our big brains & our tiny hearts, who doubt, overthink & hesitate.
The song weâre composing already exists, itâs our job to find it.â
15. The Psychology of Money,
@morganhousel âMoneyâs greatest intrinsic valueâand this canât be overstatedâis its ability to give you control over your time.â
16. The 80/20 Principle, Richard Koch
â80% of the results come from 20% of the causes.
A few things are important; most are not.â
17. Think and Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill
âThe starting point of all achievement is DESIRE.
Keep this constantly in mind.
Weak desire brings weak results just as a small fire makes a small amount of heat.
You are the master of your destiny.â
18. Rich Dad, Poor Dad,
@theRealKiyosaki âToo many people are focused too much on money and not on their greatest wealth, which is their education.
Intelligence solves problems and produces money. Money without financial intelligence is money soon gone.â
19. Principles,
@RayDalio âEvery time you confront something painful, you are at a potentially important juncture in your lifeâ
You have the opportunity to choose healthy and painful truth or unhealthy but comfortable delusion.â
20. How to Win Friends & Influence People,
@DaleCarnegie âYou can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you.â
21. The Untethered Soul, Michael Singer
âThere is nothing more important to true growth than realizing that you are not the voice of the mind - you are the one who hears it.â
