Life lesson, never underestimate what a small group of hyper focused people can accomplish
So much things in the nature and life is based on statistics/chance and the ways how to deal with it. The more tightly you try to organize stuff in life, the more brittle it will get, because you left no room for an error nor for a surprise or an opportunity. The other extreme (no planning at all) has no direction so it's less likely that over long enough time you get somewhere (though there is a small chance of course).
“Privacy is a prerequisite to freedom”
Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark in the hopeless swamps of the not-quite, the not-yet, and the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life you deserved and have never been able to reach. The world you desire can be won. It exists.. it is real.. it is possible.. it's yours.” ― Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged

The Guest House By Jalaluddin Rumi This being human is a guest house. Every morning a new arrival. A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor. Welcome and entertain them all! Even if they’re a crowd of sorrows, who violently sweep your house empty of its furniture, still, treat each guest honorably. He may be clearing you out for some new delight. The dark thought, the shame, the malice, meet them at the door laughing, and invite them in. Be grateful for whoever comes, because each has been sent as a guide from beyond.

Wise advice 👊🏽
I'm genuinely not sure what my favorite quote/life lesson is, but as a Christian, I've found that Uncle Iroh's quote about drawing wisdom from other sources is applicable to my faith as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rx7qNMLXmgw For whatever reason, many of my fellow Christians think you cannot learn from other worldviews. I see it differently. I can learn great wisdom from Shintoism or Taoism without compromising my belief in the inerrancy and supremacy of Scripture. Same goes for other denominations. I'm technically Protestant but draw a lot of wisdom from Eastern Orthodoxy (I even describe myself as "Orthodox adjacent"). I might have disagreements with some of their doctrines that keep me from committing fully to their worldview, but I'm still fully capable of learning many things from them which I can apply to my own perspective. To be clear, I cut off any study of any worldview or religion that I firmly believe is staunchly opposed to my own (such as Islam or New Age), as I do still believe there's a danger to being friendly towards antagonistic religions or worldviews that naively play with spiritual powers. Doesn't mean I'm not friendly toward people that believe in those, I just won't study their beliefs in cases like that. Nonetheless, I think a lot of Christians (and people of other worldviews) could majorly benefit from studying wisdom from other perspectives, particularly the aforementioned Tao and Shinto, which I find have plenty of wisdom that is completely compatible, and maybe even in line with, holy Scripture. Anyways, apologies for the longwinded note but I hope it was an enjoyable read nevertheless!

One of my favorites is the wisdom from Don Miguel Ruiz’s The Four Agreements: 1. Be Impeccable With Your Word Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love. 2. Don't Take Anything Personally Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won't be the victim of needless suffering. 3. Don't Make Assumptions Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life. 4. Always Do Your Best Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret.
Learn about everything. Broaden your horizons. Listen to others in your field, even if you don’t agree. Above all, if you love something, embrace it fully. No half-measures or excuses.

I have two great life lessons to mention. My wife always says that there is a place and a time for everything. This phrase can be applied to discussing things as a couple, but also to politics, economy and even art. Second greatest life lesson was learning about Bitcoin and our socialized understanding of weak FIAT money. Have a blessed day, Nathan! 😃

And all the time — such is the tragi-comedy of our situation — we continue to clamour for those very qualities we are rendering impossible. You can hardly open a periodical without coming across the statement that what our civilization needs is more 'drive', or dynamism, or self-sacrifice, or 'creativity'. In a sort of ghastly simplicity we remove the organ and demand the function. We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honour and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and bid the geldings be fruitful.
