Most people who tell you what you can't do are actually saying what they can't do; that's why talented people are so much more fun to be around, they don't see limits, they see potential, in themselves, in others.

Foolish decisions often come from having too much free time, that's when you overthink the details that don't matter, that's when you seek unnecessary stimulation to escape your boring daily life, that's when you destroy what you've built without noticing it until it's too late.

People who couldn't marry well will keep warning you against marriages; people who couldn't invest well will keep warning you that everything is a scam; people who couldn't get what they want from life will keep warning you that you won't be able to do it either.
Pessimism and cynicism are just common signs that you are failing in life. Don't get annoyed, and don't take it personally either.

It's ironic that a lot of smart people fail to live fulfilling lives precisely because they think too much; and they think too much because they lack two things: (1) the faith to believe in their own growth and (2) the courage to act when they feel scared.
