2020-10-30 Learn to love the bor

Now you might say, “oh Nik, that all sounds so conscientious and not at all fun,” but I fundamentally believe a good life can be both at the same time.

If you live to be 82 years old, that’s about 30,000 days. And guess what? No matter what you do, 27,000 of those days will be boring. Normal, routine, nothing out of the ordinary days. If you don’t somehow learn to love those, you’re in for a disappointing ride regardless of how many highs you achieve.

Deep down, we know happiness lies in the little things. The side effects. The random stuff that happens along the way. But if we don’t start learning to cherish those little things in real-time, we’ll miss all of them until it’s too late.
