When You Hit Your Elbow Against Something, But That Specific Point Of Your Elbow

I would be a morning person, if morning happened around 1pm

Just an annual reminder that you shouldn’t be relying on the first of January to reflect upon whether or not the circumstances you consent to are in your best interest. This is little more than a knee-jerk reaction to the cultural pressure to convey self-improvement; a vast majority of people posturing for social approval, rather than having their goals stemming from a sincere initiative to make change. So may this “New Year’s Resolution” be your last, as you acknowledge your ability to overcome procrastination, stagnancy, and monotony, as you desire, when you desire.

The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck 👌🏻 a must read.

“The more you desperately want to be rich, the more poor and unworthy you feel, regardless of how much money you make. The more you desperately want to be sexy or desired, the uglier you come to see yourself, regardless of your actual appearance. The more you desperately want to be happy and loved, the lonelier and more afraid you become, regardless of those who surround you. The more you want to be spiritually enlightened, the more self-centered and shallow you become in trying to get there. You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life”. – an excerpt from Mark Manson’s book, “The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck”. I’m only 10 pages in and my mood has improved significantly. 👌🏼

“Frequently knowledge is treated as an end in itself, and then the goal becomes to heap it up and display it when called for. This static, cold-storage ideal of knowledge is inimical to educative development. It not only lets occasions for thinking go unused, but it swamps thinking. No one could construct a house on ground cluttered with miscellaneous junk.”

— John Dewey, Democracy and Education

Either you repeat the same conventional doctrines everybody is saying, or else you say something true, and it will sound like it’s from Neptune.
