There are some important attributes of nicknames you must accept, and if you don’t, it sticks even harder.
You do not pick your nickname.
You do not decide how it is pronounced.
You do not choose who gives it to you.
It is as random as a butterfly.
Every nickname is a story, with you as its subject.
You will serve it.

To improve your decision-making, constrain your choices.
To improve your choices, expand your environment.

You know.
You doubt because you don’t want to believe what you know.
But you know.
Time does not reveal what you don’t know, it calls out your bullshit masquerading as doubt.
You know.
You doubt because doubt is the most sophisticated form of procrastination.
But you know.
Reality does not stoop to meet doubt, it stomps upon it.
You know.
Act on what you know.

Sit with every emotion.
Sit in silence with it.
Allow it to kick and scream.
Allow it to turn the place upside down.
All emotions ultimately serve you.
The greatest kings sit in silence and act in same.

Nothing satisfies the heart like love.
Nothing.
Every other thing turns desire into suffering.
Everything but love.
Life is perfectly designed to flourish within love.
Find it.

The most beautiful thing about love is how much you miss the person when they are away, even when their absence is for good reason.
The greatest gift of technology is that you can bring that person into your space when you can no longer bear the longing.
The greatest curse of technology is that you can bring that person into your space when they are no longer that person.
The most beautiful thing about love is how willing you are to forgive wrongs, even without or before an apology.
The best of us is wrapped in love. No matter what the world throws at you, remain open to love.

If winning is important to you, avoid arguments.
State your case, listen to the other party’s, and let reality reveal whose position holds in time.
If you’re sure you’re right, why argue?
If you’re not sure you’re right, why argue?
If you’re sure you’re not right, why argue?
There’s never a good reason to argue, except one: a desire to drain your own energy.

In every moment of your life, you are present as the doer, the thinker, and the observer.
The doer executes, the thinker assesses, and the observer improves.
Discipline serves the doer.
Goals serve the thinker.
Discernment serves the observer.
All three are always available to you whenever you are ready to lock in.
