Most of us don't want success.
They want the way success looks and feels, when the hardest work & sacrifices are mostly done.

Never underestimate the human need for recognition. People will destroy relationships, sabotage opportunities, and betray their own standards just to feel seen for a few minutes. Attention is not a small currency. It is emotional oxygen, and desperate people will bargain away dignity to breathe.

If you were the King, would you prioritize the justice of the law (the act committed) or the truth of the person (the circumstances lived), knowing that choosing one effectively destroys the other? 🎧@homeofbookquotes

And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about.

“I suppose therefore that all things I see are illusions; I believe that nothing has ever existed of everything my lying memory tells me. I think I have no senses. I believe that body, shape, extension, motion, location are functions. What is there then that can be taken as true? Perhaps only this one thing, that nothing at all is certain.”

So many people "run away" and then justify the "running away."
They run away from the hard things, the problems, the challenges of life, society, or their own work.
And then they wonder why nothing works out for them.
Fight for what you want. Stop running.

“To be nobody but

which is doing its best day and night to make you like

"The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts. Therefore, guard accordingly, and take care that you entertain no notions unsuitable to virtue and reasonable nature." 🎧@homeofbookquotes
Authenticity is not about saying whatever pops into your head. It's about sharing what reflects who you want to be.
Healthy self-expression doesn't mean no filter. It involves weighing whether your current thoughts and emotions are aligned with your lasting values.

The Clockmaker’s Compass
In the kingdom of Oros, the Great Clockmaker crafted a mechanical compass for the King. It was not a tool for navigation, but a tool for truth. When pointed at any person, the needle would swing to reveal their "Greatest Regret"—the one moment in their life they would change if they could.
One day, the King brought a criminal before him to be judged. The man had stolen bread to feed a starving village. The King, hesitant to pass a harsh sentence, held the compass to the man. The needle spun wildly, failing to point to any specific regret.
Confused, the King held the compass to himself. The needle immediately pointed to his own chest: his greatest regret was choosing to be King instead of a simple farmer.
The King then held the compass to the criminal one last time, begging it to show the man’s guilt. Finally, the needle clicked into place. It didn’t point to the theft of the bread, nor to any sin. It pointed to the King himself. The criminal’s greatest regret was that he had never been given the opportunity to live a life where he didn't have to steal to survive.
The King realized that the compass did not measure the "truth" of an action, but the truth of the circumstance. He held the power to punish the man for his crime, but he now saw that the man’s "guilt" was a shadow cast by the King’s own governance. 🎧@homeofbookquotes
One of the signs of growth is that situations that used to take longer to solve will now take lesser times for you.
You start to bounce back a bit quicker, you process things faster, but you have to be careful, this can also be a sign of numbness, it can also mean that you are losing your sensitivity, your soul, you start to not care, you are quick to wave things off, to become detached and nonchalant.
You must be vigilant, to feel things passionately is important, you should not want to lose that.
There is no joy in life without emotions, no joy at all. 🎧@homeofbookquotes
