Adulthood 

It’s a million forms and a million renewals, enrollment renewals, that you personally have to do. It’s picking a passion of yours, a subject matter or a vocation, and practicing it professionally to earn a living and to give back to your community. You have to take care of yourself and your environment/home, of course. And there’s always some pressure to do well at your job, and to deliver the key points of it well—mainly for the sake of the people around you, the subgroup you serve or produce for. That’s why it’s important to pick a true passion of yours, I think–it makes the days worthwhile and enjoyable. -Homemaking and caregiving is the most important job; I sense that most happy and diligent individuals come from supportive and strong upbringings and homes. It wasn’t neglectful or haphazard; it was structured and loving, teaching responsibility and moral uprightness.

-It’s not what you do, it’s how well you do it.

Be where you are, or you will miss your life. -Buddha.

You can follow the 80/20 rule; get 80% of your work done during 20% of the time, rather than trying to get 100% of your work done during 100% of the time. (You’re allowed to get a lot of work done quickly. It’s ok to not have a set schedule.)

Who’s the judge? The judge is God. Why is he God? Because he decides who wins and loses, not my opponent. Who’s your opponent? He doesn’t exist. Why does he not exist? Because he is merely a dissenting voice to the truth I speak. –The Great Debaters. 

Half of life is in living; e.g., giving your best, and keeping a positive attitude. The other half is letting go of the annoyances and the things that bother you. 1/2 is in being; the other half is in letting go. Letting go really is that important; it’s one half of life, or so.
