    Because self-improvement isn’t about getting things; it’s about becoming someone, and the someone worth becoming is a person who cares about not what they get but rather what they create.

    But then there’s this other kind of freedom that says: “Hey look, man, it’s great you don’t want to be anybody’s personal minion—I’m with ya there—but do you really think just doing whatever you want is going to lead to a happy existence?” Actually, dude, this is what I would tell that person: “It’s often better to take options away, so long as you’re removing those options yourself.”

    Because here’s freedom for excellence: this is the freedom that comes from restriction.

    Freedom for excellence isn’t about being able to move in this or that direction like in the notion of autonomous self-direction; it’s about having the power to pursue whatever skills you think are worth having and developing the discipline to say no to all the things that are distracting you from your life’s purpose.

    because there’s really no assurance that just because people are free, they’ll make the most of themselves

    You don’t have to be the best in the world to get ahead. You don’t need to be number one to see the limelight, strike it rich, or find meaning in life

    You don’t have to be the best in the world to get ahead. You don’t need to be number one to see the limelight, strike it rich, or find meaning in life. You only need to be good or great—or at least fairly competent—at a few things and then combine those things to foster that uttermost creative quality within yourself.
  • JENNY MANANSALAhas quoted4 years ago
    a great life lesson in how to achieve your goals by learning to be good at multiple skills instead of killing yourself trying to master one.
  • JENNY MANANSALAhas quoted4 years ago
    It’s not about killing yourself trying to be the best. It’s about putting the puzzle pieces together, getting better at what you need to get better
