How to conquer the Hydra that is your mind

Rating: 4/5

Notes

Courage means being afraid and acting anyway

There is no victory without struggle

Take care of your tools, learn how to use them and it’ll serve you well

Root of all fear is the unknown and unknowable future, which cannot be predicted or controlled. Fear of the unknown will always be with you, but do it anyway

Trust your own skills, judgement and experience

Wisdom consists of anticipating and preventing avoidable mistakes

Only take advice from people who have faced the beast

Fortune tends to smile on those who act, even when the final outcome is not guaranteed

The record at the end is often not what you expect - be open to treasures in unexpected places and in uncommon forms

You are entitled to your actions but not the result of your actions
