It’s an excellent message for all of us to remember because maybe we’re in a position where light seems to be shining on us, or we’re chasing others who we think have light shining on them. We need to remember that the light is within us, so we don’t need to ever worry about losing it or needing to chase it—it’s already here. We just need to find it within and let it shine. JC |

I’ve never watched the movie, despite liking the majority of Michael Lewis’s books. The final scene I saw was the one in which Billy Beane watches his analytics-focused approach to rebuilding the Oakland Athletics fail at the beginning of the season. The team was on a losing streak, and the media and fans questioned why the team was struggling and called for Beane...
“Men are disturbed not by things, but by the view which they take of them.” -Epictetus Everything is neutral until you assign a value to it. So that “bad” even that happened to you was only “bad” because that was the value you assigned to it. Remember this the next time you begin to assign a negative value to something that has happened to you. See you tomorrow and keep pursuing, JC
