Kindle Notes & Highlights
Take your age and subtract two. That’s the number of years you’ve spent forcing yourself to say “yes” when your essential self wanted to say “no.”
Teaching your social self to pay attention when your essential self says “no” is the most basic way to reconnect the two sides of your personality.
Instead of fighting your unexplained bad moods, pay special attention to them. They are a clear sign that you’ve lost your North Star, and that your essential self is trying to tell you where to find it.
