There’s NO medal for pushing past our actual band-with. There’s NO medal for not resting. There’s NO medal for overworking. There’s NO medal for “the most burnt-out.” There’s NO medal for ignoring what our body needs. #mentalhealth

You heard how a building from Louis Armstrong's childhood fell to Hurricane Ida, largely because, through the years, nobody with power and resources cared enough to preserve it. Here's what happens when somebody cares. cnn.com/travel/article/1811-…

Success is largely the failures you avoid. Health is the injuries you don't sustain. Wealth is the purchases you don't make. Happiness is the objects you don't desire. Peace of mind is the arguments you don't engage. Avoid the bad to protect the good.
