Meaning isn’t given to you by your culture, your parents, or your god. You create meaning through your choices and your actions.

The less you rate and judge the results of your actions in your daily life, and instead celebrate having shown up at all, the happier and more motivated you will feel.

Open yourself up to the becoming of yourself into the future. You are not done changing.

The philosophy of recklessness says “let go and let go (and let go and let go).”

Wealth and abundance increases when you increase its flow.

To create is to step forward without armor, to act before permission arrives. To risk being seen as flawed, dumb, unskilled, even delusional. To destroy your safety in service of the sublime.

At midlife, your postponed self demands to live in the light.

The real world beckons when you let go of the self.

At midlife, you stop relying on goals to give your life meaning. You find joy in being present, in connecting with people you love, in creating good things in the world.

Ask yourself: what is no longer working in my life? And be ready to let go of it.

The future cannot be extrapolated. It can only be entered.

To ask if something is enough is to invite a spreadsheet into the forest.

At midlife, you are ready to choose recklessness.
