1. Today, make sure you take a walk.
And in the future, when you get stressed or overwhelmed, take a walk.
Take a walk when you have a tough problem to solve or a decision to make.
When you want to be creative, take a walk.
When you need to get some air, take a walk.
When you have a phone call to make, take a walk.
When you need some exercise, take a long walk.
Take a walk together when you have a meeting or a friend over.
Nourish yourself and your mind and solve your problems along the way.
2. Failure is a part of life we have little choice over.
Learning from failure, on the other hand, is optional.
We have to choose to learn.
3. The next time you face a political dispute or a personal disagreement, ask yourself:
Is there any reason to fight about this? Is arguing going to help solve anything?
Would an educated or wise person really be as quarrelsome as you might initially be inclined to be?
4. How you handle even minor adversity might seem like nothing, but, in fact, it reveals everything.
5. No need to be too hard on yourself.
Hold yourself to a higher standard but not an impossible one.
And forgive yourself if and when you slip up.
6. βIt is possible to curb your arrogance, to overcome pleasure and pain, to rise above your ambition, and to not be angry with stupid and ungrateful peopleβyes, even to care for them.β βMARCUS AURELIUS
7. Do your job today.
Whatever happens, whatever other peopleβs jobs happen to
be, do yours.
Be good.
8. Why do we read?
Weβre not trying to ace tests or impress teachers.
We are reading and studying to live and be good human beingsβalways and forever.
9. βIn your actions, donβt procrastinate.
In your conversations, donβt confuse. In your thoughts, donβt wander. In your soul, donβt be passive or aggressive.
In your life, donβt be all about business.β βMARCUS AURELIUS
10. Great teachers are usually hardest on their most promising students.
When teachers see potential, they want it to be fully realized.
But great teachers also know that natural ability and quick comprehension can be quite dangerous to the student if left alone.
An early promise can lead to overconfidence and create bad habits.
Those who pick things up quickly are notorious for skipping the basic lessons and ignoring the fundamentals.
Donβt get carried away. Take it slow. Train with humility.
