When everyone goes right, the easier way for you to stand out is to choose a different path.
Easier and most difficult.

The muscle
In the end, there are probably more things in life you are uncomfortable with than things you can easily accept and embrace.
This should be a reason to train your acceptance muscle, not the excuse to give in to control.
It’s a counterintuitive reaction and a pointless use of resources.
Good and bad
The good news it that you are in charge. You choose what to do, how to spend the day, what to eat, how frequently to exercise, how to spin the story, what people you go out with, how to get back up after a bad fall.
The bad news is that there is no excuse.
Hold on
A thought is just a thought if you don’t hold on to it.
A feeling is just a feeling if you don’t hold on to it.
A failure is just a failure if you don’t hold on to it.
I guess the point is that we should spend more time unlearning to hold on.
You are not
You are not what you do when you have the money. When you are relaxed, you have bandwidth, you hear people cheering for you. You are not what you do when you are on top, at your best, well-dressed. You are not what you do when you have all the options and no stake in the outcome.
You are you especially when there’s no choice. That’s where your true you is.
Those moments are precious.
