I find paradoxes so interesting. The most successful are the ones most comfortable failing. The happiest people are the ones that don’t fear sadness. The most attractive man is the one least desperate for a woman’s attention. Too many options leads to dissatisfaction. Too few options feels restricting. The more you try to tightly control something the more likely it is to slip away. Chasing happiness makes it more elusive. Trying to show others that you’re strong makes you look weak. Seeking approval from others makes it less likely they will approve of you. The more you think you know, the less you are able to learn.

April 22nd THE MARKS OF A RATIONAL PERSON “These are the characteristics of the rational soul: self-awareness, self-examination, and self-determination. It reaps its own harvest. . . . It succeeds in its own purpose . . .” —MARCUS AURELIUS, MEDITATIONS, 11.1–2 #DailyStoic
