A major cheat code in life: Being a pleasure to deal with. Kind when others aren’t. Calm when things go sideways. Reliable under pressure. Intelligence alone is overrated. Be someone who lightens the load for folks around them. People value people who make their lives easier.

In Mrs. Doubtfire (1993) when Mrs. Doubtfire is fishing her teeth out of the wine she says, "Carpe dentum. Seize the teeth." This line was improvised by Robin Williams as a reference to Dead Poets Society (1989) in which his character says, "Carpe Diem. Seize the day, boys."

A lesson I wish I learned earlier: Real happiness is found in the anticipation. It’s the quest. It’s the hunt. It’s the process. It's the journey. It's the moment right before you achieve it. Happiness is not in the having, but in the becoming.

The surest way to create your dream reality is to show up asking: “What can I give to this space, this person, this moment?” Think of your desires like seeds in the ground. You water them when you give freely, with no expectations. Then you wake up one day… and boom. Flowers.

“My theory of the world is basically that everything would be better if people could tactfully but frankly say how they felt and what they needed. And a lot of harm is caused by people trying to manage the reactions of the people around them.”
