Stillness is the Key by Ryan Holidayby Parker on TwosMost desires are at their core irrational emotions. Think ahead to the refractory period, to consider the inevitable hangover before we take a drink. When we do that, these desires lose some of their powerOnly those of us who take the time to explore, to question, to extrapolate the consequences of our desires have an opportunity to overcome them and to stop regrets before they startReal pleasure lies in having a soul that’s true and stable, happy and secureEnough is a beautiful thing“Nothing is enough for the man to whom enough is too little.” - Epicurus“We are restless because deep in our hearts we know now that our happiness is found elsewhere, and our work, no matter how valuable it is to us or to others, cannot take its place. But we hurry anyway, and attend to our business because we need to matter, and we don’t always realize we already do.” - Marco RubioYou will never feel okay by way of external accomplishments. Enough comes from the inside“Beauty remains, even in misfortune. If you just look for it, you discover more and more happiness and regain your balance.” - Anne Frank“There is no enjoying the possession of anything valuable unless one has someone to share it with.” - Seneca
