I learned that accepting others and accepting myself are two sides of the same coin; you can't love and accept yourself without doing the same for others.

'Someday' is the day after you die.

Your values are your current estimations of truth. They represent your answer to the question of how to live.

Believing that you must do something perfectly is a recipe for stress, and you'll associate that stress with the task and thus condition yourself to avoid it

It's important to note that you don't have to earn money from all of your interests. If you just dive in and pursue what you enjoy, you may be surprised to find out which interests help you generate income and which don't.

Productivity = creating value and delivering it to people. All other busywork is unproductive fluff and should be minimized.

Think for yourself. Unplug yourself from follow-the-follower groupthink, and virtually ignore what everyone else in your industry is saying (except the ones everyone agrees is crazy). Do your own research, draw your own conclusions, set your own course, and stick to your guns. When you're just starting out, people will tell you you're wrong. After you've blown past them, they'll tell you you're crazy. A few years after that, they'll (privately) ask you to mentor them.
