Failure Does Not Shape You; The Way

Failure Is Not An Event, But Rather A Judgment About An Event. Failure Is Not Something That Happens To Us Or A Label We Attach To Things. It Is A Way We Think About Outcomes.

Solitude Is The One Place Where We Can Gain Freedom From The Forces Of Society That Will Otherwise Relentlessly Mold Us. Solitude Requires Relentless Perseverance.

Wise People Build Their Lives Around What Is Eternal And Squeeze In What Is Temporary. Not The Other Way Around.

True Joy, As It Turns Out, Comes Only To Those Who Have Devoted Their Lives To Something Greater Than Personal Happiness. This Is Most Visible In Extraordinary Lives, In Saints And Martyrs. But It Is No Less True For Ordinary People Like Us.

If You Want To Do The Work Of God, Pay Attention To People. Notice Them. Especially The People Nobody Else Notices.
