She can’t shake the feeling—eyes on her, shadows trailing her steps, an unspoken presence lingering. She lives alone in the apartment... or does she?

Motion comic conceptualized, animated, and created on @morphic.

The most important thing is not to let yourself get impatient. This is one more piece of advice I have for you: don't get impatient. Even if things are so tangled up you can't do anything, don't get desperate or blow a fuse and start yanking on one particular thread before it's ready to come undone. You have to figure it's going to be a long process and that you'll work on things slowly, one at a time.

Betrayal from a friend is far more dangerous than attack from an enemy.

The closer someone is to you, the more quickly and extensively they can damage you.

Few powerful men are destroyed by their enemies.

Far more common are powerful men destroyed by their supposed allies.

“The world is full of people suffering from the effects of their own unlived life. They become bitter, critical, or rigid, not because the world is cruel to them, but because they have betrayed their own inner possibilities. The artist who never makes art becomes cynical about those who do. The lover who never risks loving mocks romance. The thinker who never commits to a philosophy sneers at belief itself. And yet, all of them suffer, because deep down they know: the life they mock is the life they were meant to live.“

— Carl Jung

At some point you don't need any more advice or motivational quotes or clever sayings.

You just need silence and a work ethic.

@Audiobooks_collection

Cynicism feels like intelligence… Pessimism feels like maturity.

Both are just mental laziness dressed up as wisdom.

It takes no skill to call out what’s broken.

The real work is imagining what’s better—and building it.

New Post,

Read, like and Restack: Don't hurt me, please

The more you think about yourself, the more miserable you get.

@Audiobooks_collection

Everyone dreams big until they see the price tag.

@Audiobooks_collection

People think you have to be "so sophisticated" to do big things, and the truth is - you don't.

You just have to be relentless about taking action again & again and learning on the way forward.

@Audiobooks_collection

Life is actually quite funny.

One day you’re wishing for something, and the next, you have it.

But you forget you were once wishing for it, so then you just take it for granted and start wishing for something else, for something better.

@Audiobooks_collection

The weight of the tasks undone and issues ignored is always heavier than the burden of handling them head-on. Avoidance is the most toxic trait you can develop, and it will quietly poison all your life.

@Audiobooks_collection

People who warn you about "hustle culture," should warn you more about poverty.

Sometimes the only way out, is through.

@Audiobooks_collection

If you come from a poor background - just freaking go for the fences.

Play big, be audacious, take chances.

What's going to happen to you? End up poor?

The worst case is that you end up where you started - and the most likely scenario is that you don't.

Go for it.

When something is gone, something better is coming.

A mask doesn’t fool the mirror. You can’t separate who you are from what you do.

My father, never a rich man, gave me some advice: “If you want to really help the poor, son, don’t be one of them.” It took me awhile to understand the full depth of what that meant.
