Gratitude is a discipline, not an emotion.
If you must masturbate, you have already failed
Everybody supplies their own ammunition for their own execution
Minimalism is the intentional promotion of the things we most value and the removal of anything that distracts us from it.
You can waste your whole life trying to be everything to everybody. Pick your passion. And let them pick theirs.
Gratitude causes us to no longer desire a different life. Instead, it causes us to make the most of the one life we already have.
