For this Day:

;

Lack of daily design

Plateaus don't happen from lack of ambition. They happen from lack of daily design.
Most driven, high-energy producers:

• wake up reactive

• rush through their mornings

• overcheck their phones

• overwork and push too hard 

• neglect mental and physical recovery

• end their days depleted and stressed

That cycle quietly limits growth. And over time, erodes a human's assets of genius.

- Robin Sharma

...lot of scum

Society is like a stew. If you don't keep it stirred up you get a lot of scum on the top. 
-Edward Abbey, naturalist and author (1927-1989)

...of a free people

Human kindness has never weakened the stamina or softened the fiber of a free people. A nation does not have to be cruel to be tough. 
-Franklin D. Roosevelt, 32nd US President (1882-1945)
