Daily Stocism
@dailystocismYour daily dose of Stocism.
Be quiet, work hard, and stay healthy. It’s not ambition or skill that is going to set you apart but sanity.
Your potential, the absolute best you’re capable of—that’s the metric to measure yourself against. Your standards are. Winning is not enough. People can get lucky and win. People can be assholes and win. Anyone can win. But not everyone is the best possible version of themselves.
Be quiet, work hard, and stay healthy. It’s not ambition or skill that is going to set you apart but sanity.
Control your emotions. Learn to react less.
Keep it private, people love to ruin things.
I can't control the other person's behavior, but I can control my response. Their actions may be rude or unacceptable, but I still want my response to be measured and thoughtful. Even if they aren't doing what is right, I still want to make sure I'm doing what is right.
7 keys to a productive life: 1. Wake up early 2. Limit interruptions 3. Make a little progress everyday 4. Say no (a lot) 5. Learn from your mistakes 6. Pick yourself back up when you slip 7. Waste no time measuring yourself against other people
Anger is worthless. It only makes the world a worse place. It only makes the holder of it feel worse. Stop the cycle. Treat yourself how you’d treat someone else.
