Honesty is about the scars. Its about the blemishes. But its more than just bragging about failure, which could be a form of ego. Its about truly helping people.
James AltucherThe reality is: when you're slouched over, not only are you not using the full potential of your brain, but you look untrustworthy.
James AltucherOnly think about the people you enjoy. Only read the books you enjoy, that make you happy to be human. Only go to the events that actually make you laugh or fall in love. Only deal with the people who love you back, who are winners and want you to win too.
James AltucherEveryone is different. We all suffer from the disease of being human. There are a thousand cures but no antidotes.
James AltucherEvery time you say yes to something you donโt want to do, this will happen: you will resent people, you will do a bad job, you will have less energy for the things you were doing a good job on, you will make less money, and yet another small percentage of your life will be used up, burned up, a smoke signal to the future saying, โI did it again.
James AltucherYour hands are not made to type out memos. Or put paper through fax machines. Or hold a phone up while you talk to people you dislike. 100 years from now your hands will rot like dust in your grave. You have to make wonderful use of those hands now. Kiss your hands so they can make magic.
