"What happened yesterday you cannot change, what is happening today you can only experience."

― Sadhguru, Inner Engineering

"Focus on serving others. No matter what is going on around us, we can attend to the people in front of us, to the issues confronting us and there, we offer what we can. We can offer insight and compassion. We can be present. We can stay and not flee. We can be exemplars of the best human qualities. That is a life well lived, even if we didn’t save the world."

― Margaret Wheatley, Who Do We Choose to Be?

“The stars will never align, and the traffic lights of life will never all be green at the same time. The universe doesn't conspire against you, but it doesn't go out of its way to line up the pins either. Conditions are never perfect. 'Someday' is a disease that will take your dreams to the grave with you. Pro-and-con lists are just as bad. If it's important to you and you want to do it 'eventually,' just do it and correct course along the way.”

― Tim Ferriss, The 4-Hour Workweek
