If you look at the things you have or can do versus what is out there, you are always missing out on something.

There's always a better workout system, a better diet that will get you ripped faster, a better mattress, a better whatever.

But if you look at what truly makes you happy, it is outside of all of these things. Because it is in the things you already have and do.


A great book is a friend that never lets you down. You can return to it again and again and the joy first derived from it will still be there.

– Ruskin Bond

Be humble because you are made of earth.
Be noble, for you are made of stars.

– a Serbian proverb I found in Matt Haig's book
