Money

1.

Life has a funny way of working out for people who do stuff and not working out for people who sit on their hands and plot and plan and make excuses for not doing stuff.

 


Health

1.

Longevity experts are obsessed with living longer. They’re focused on the wrong thing. What matters is how well you live, not how long.

2.

Only when I’m given an actual physical burden and my muscles start to groan (and sometimes scream) does my comprehension meter shoot upward and I’m finally able to grasp something. - Haruki Murakami

3.

Muscles are hard to get and easy to lose. Fat is easy to get and hard to lose.

 


Relationships

1.

Nobody should ever be there but not present with family because they’re thinking about something clever to say about what they’re doing on social media.

 


A Few Good Quotes from a Great Book

"Words are really the least effective communicator. They are most open to misinterpretation, most often misunderstood."

"Fear is the energy which contracts, closes down, draws in, runs, hides, hoards, harms. Love is the energy which expands, opens up, sends out, stays, reveals, shares, heals."

"If there were such a thing as sin, this would be it: to allow yourself to become what you are because of the experience of others."

-Neale Donald Walsch (from Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue)

I want a taco. Do you want a taco? I want a taco. If we ever get to meet and hang out, can we go for tacos?
