Mark Manson - From the Greatness category:
Great things are, by their very nature, unique and unconventional. Therefore, to achieve them, we must go against the herd mentality. And to do that is scary. (Mark Manson)
Mark Manson - From the Happiness category:
To live a happy and healthy life, we must hold on to values that are greater than our own pleasure or satisfaction. (Mark Manson)
Mark Manson - From the Importance category:
When people feel like they have no sense of direction, no purpose in their life, it's because they don't know what's important to them... they're essentially taking on other people's values and living other people's priorities instead of their own. (Mark Manson)
Mark Manson - From the Life category:
Thinking about death forces us to zero in on what's actually important in our lives and what's just frivolous and distracting. (Mark Manson)
Mark Manson - From the Passion category:
We all have a tendency to lose touch with what we loved as a child. Something about the social pressures of adolescence and professional pressures of young adulthood squeezes the passion out of us. We're taught that the only reason to do something is if we're somehow rewarded for it. (Mark Manson)
Mark Manson - From the Rejection category:
If you want to be a professional artist, but you aren't willing to see your work rejected hundreds, if not thousands of times, then you're done before you start. (Mark Manson)
Mark Manson - From the Sacrifice category:
Everything involves sacrifice... Nothing is pleasurable or uplifting all of the time... Ultimately, what determines our ability to stick with something we care about is our ability to handle the rough patches and ride out the inevitable rotten days. (Mark Manson)
