Looking to the past for inspiration to apply to today's ever changing world. Sharing quotes from Marcus Aurelius, and other thinkers to inspire calm, clarity, and conviction in this noisy world.

“The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.” — Albert Camus image
“Straight on hustle. Rise and grind. I’ll sleep when I’m dead.” — Unknown image
“The life given us by nature is short, but the memory of a well-spent life is eternal.” — Cicero
To be the drop is to cling to your edges, trembling in fear of losing yourself. To become the ocean is to dissolve into vastness, to surrender to love so boundless it erases all boundaries. The drop thinks it will vanish, but in truth, it awakens to its true nature—never separate, always the ocean, infinite and free. image
“You have power over your mind — not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.” — Marcus Aurelius, Meditations 6.8
“But neither a bull nor a noble-spirited man comes to be what he is all at once; he must undertake hard winter training and prepare himself, not propel himself rashly into what is not appropriate to him.” — Epictetus #SatoshiStoicmoto #Epicetus
“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma—which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become.” —Steve Jobs #TLDR #SteveJobs #CoffeeChain #GM #LifeIsGood
“Everyone holds his fortune in his own hands, like a sculptor the raw material he will fashion into a figure. . . . The skill to mold the material into what we want must be learned and attentively cultivated.” —Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“Life is no ‘brief candle’ for me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I have got hold of for the moment, and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations.” — George Bernard Shaw
“To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die.” — Thomas Campbell
“Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.” — Leo Tolstoy
