Pain grows heavier when you attach tomorrow's story to it.
Focus 7

Noise is easy; direction is hard.
What you daily nourish will in the end be larger than what you only admire.
The mind can only be creative when it is not full.
A thought thought through is worth more than ten begun.
A thought thought to the end changes more than a thousand half-thought ones.
Your attention is a vote you cast all day long.
One thought a day.
