“I don’t accept that I am what I am and that “that” is what I am doomed to be. NO. I do not accept that. I’m fighting. I’m always fighting. I’m struggling and I’m scraping and kicking and clawing at those weaknesses—to change them. To stop them. Some days I win. But some days I don’t. But each and every day: I get back up and I move forward. With my fists clenched. Toward the battle. Toward the struggle. And I fight with everything I’ve got:”
Jocko Willink, Discipline Equals Freedom: Field Manual Mk1-MOD1

“What is better – To be born good, or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?”
Paarthurnax, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

“Stop counting the relapses and stop worshipping the time you have without them. Just keeping getting back up. You just keep getting back up. Now that is recovery!”
Jackie Lynn Cazee-Samm

“You did not lose if you lost things that made you lose yourself.”
Michael Bassey Johnson, Night of a Thousand Thoughts

Bremer Acosta
“Life will question you in its vital moments. It's up to you in how you'll respond. You might have drifted from the principles that you once followed. You could've indulged in vices or fallen into unthinking habits. It's your choice to start your practice again. Remind yourself of what's valuable and then act. You still have a choice to be brave, temperate, and wise.”
Bremer Acosta, Stoic Practice
