The Motivation Manifesto - That pick me up, get you going, remember why you started kinda book. Eyed this book on my shelf this morning and decided to do another read through. When I read books I always highlight the good parts. From time to time I'll re visit an old book and just read all the highlighted passages. Easy and efficient way to refresh your memory or revisit an old favourite 👌🏻
"All great people of history, all the heroes and leaders and innovators who lit humanity’s way out of darkness and ignorance, forged within themselves the courage to overcome their internal conflicts when it mattered most. In many ways, they are just like us: They worried. They procrastinated. They sometimes had lower opinions of their fellow human beings. But what made them celebrated, what pushed society forward, what gave birth to their legend, was their sheer will to overcome such impulses and to faithfully, actively, and lovingly fight for a better life for themselves and others. Let us learn from them, let us master ourselves, and let us now add our own chapter of courage to the good book of humanity. But we all know that the seeds of greatness grow faster in the hearts of those doing work they love than in the bitter hearts of those enslaved by work they despise."
