    Gaining Ground

    Some years are going to be years of progress. There will be years of  making small, unimpressive gains in either character or circumstances.  These improvements matter more than achievements.

    Anti Social

    There is no going back to the way things were before social media. If you choose to use it, or not to use it, both actions have consequences. Both choices have an impact in different ways.

    Take It Uneasy

    This cultural desire to embrace leisure seems to make us passive. It whittles away our potential. For this reason, the ability to live an easy, relaxed, stress-free life doesn’t seem appealing to me.

    Captive Comforts

    When you experience too much comfort, you become captive. Your instincts to grow, to keep reaching for your potential start to dull. In a very real way, you forget who you truly are.

    The Skill is the Success

    Friendship On Purpose

    As an adult, the deepening of friendship requires a deliberate desire. Similar to dating, you have to actively decide to become better friends with someone, and invest some time and interest in getting to know them.

    Narrow It Down

    If you spend five years just focused on building one skill, or achieving one goal, you will find all the knowledge you need. It will all be useful to you, and you won’t grow bored of learning about it.

    At Least You Know

    Even in failure, you still gain something. Even if it’s just the knowledge to do it differently next time.
