If you spend your life trying to be good at everything, you will never be great at anything.

The quickest way to be a little bit happier and more engaged in your job is to spend some time thinking about developing closer friendships.

When I was in kindergarten, I entered a competition and read 52 books in a week.

When you ask people what affects their wellbeing most, they think of health and wealth.

Talent (a natural way of thinking, feeling, or behaving) × Investment (time spent practicing, developing your skills, and building your knowledge base) = Strength (the ability to consistently provide near-perfect performance)

People who have at least three or four very close friendships are healthier, have higher wellbeing, and are more engaged in their jobs. But the absence of any close friendships can lead to boredom, loneliness, and depression.

What works for one persons needs is almost always very different from the next.
