People waste so much time chasing the wrong people. When you meet someone who is meant to stay in your life, you know it. You neither judge them nor feel judged by them. There is no taboo but you respect each otherโ€™s boundaries. The conversations feel effortlessly stimulating.

The best things in life happen offline and are not documented. The ordinary walks and laughters with your family. The long conversations in person with old friends you effortlessly trust. The satisfaction that comes with tough trainings done with peers who also value their

We all agree on the value of coaching for athletes. But what about for coaches? Atul Gawande once said, "Coaching done well may be the most effective intervention designed for human performance." This sentiment doesn't just apply to athletes. The best leaders learn alongside

It's sad that very few people ever take the time to write long, meaningful letters to their family and friends anymore; everyone is always "busy" and afraid of bothering, and they are missing out on the joy of being intellectually and emotionally deeply connected to someone else.

Underrated truth: The people who elevate your life arenโ€™t always loud. They show up quietly. They keep their word. They support you in the dark. They celebrate you without keeping score. Cherish them. One loyal friend is far more valuable than a hundred fair-weather ones.

Strive to become someone who can be genuinely happy for others; one day, you will suddenly notice that you already earned everything you needed and wanted along the way, because a confident and happy version of yourself is a precondition for generosity and love towards others.

If there was a tutorial to life, it would actually be quite simple: 1) Read books to avoid the common time-wasting mistakes, most of the wisdom you need for a happy life is actually written down in timeless novels 2) Accumulate a wide range of experiences and meet a lot of

Underrated relationship advice: Stop assuming people know how you feel about them. Tell your friends youโ€™re proud of them. Text your parents you love them. Compliment your coworkers. Say the kind thing while you still have the chance.

You don't feel great during your best writings. You don't feel great when you are about to make the best investment of your life. You don't feel great when you are about to make a lifelong commitment that will change your perspective. You don't feel great when you are about to

The older I get, the more I realize that itโ€™s perfectly ok to live a life that looks confusing to others. Wake up early. Eat real foods. Go on long walks. Obsess over something. Pray. Be grateful. Read old books. Never gossip. Be loved by a few. Recipe for a good life.

A long walk with a friend is simultaneously a deep conversation, physical relaxation, mental stimulation, emotional connection, and a good way to remember that the best things in life are often very simple.

โ€œSo then it becomes, for meโ€ฆ what does that look like? That place of absolute joy. Iโ€™ve thought about that a lot. And I think I know. For me, itโ€™s the perfect day on the mountain. The perfect day on skis. Andโ€”big surpriseโ€”itโ€™s not a race. Itโ€™s a training session.โ€โ€”Mikaela

One day, you will wake up and realize that you are the same age as all the people you thought were "old" many years ago, and whether you feel at peace will depend on whether you took the risks that seemed bold at the time, but that were in retrospect the only obvious thing to do.
