You shouldn’t finish every book you start.
Abandoning a book is not an admission of failure—it’s a sign of wisdom. You’ve decided to let go of sunk costs.
The purpose of reading is to be entertained and informed. If a book doesn't bring joy or insight, it’s time to move on.

Downplaying your achievements is not the antidote to appearing arrogant.
Humility is acknowledging your weaknesses, not denying your strengths. Generosity is elevating others, not diminishing yourself.
Owning your success doesn't make you a narcissist—it makes you a role model.

”(Cartmell) knows that Mayor Sohi is always talking about how bad the drug crisis is in Edmonton. He knows this, and it’s just such a blatant misrepresentation. He’s in campaign mode, you know?”

Don't confuse being a fast talker with being a deep thinker. Speaking quickly signals confidence, not complexity.
Don't mistake volume for expertise. Speaking loudly reflects conviction, not credibility.
Sometimes the best ideas come from the least assertive voice in the room.

In toxic relationships, you're forced to choose between honesty and loyalty. You bite your tongue to protect their ego.
In healthy relationships, honesty is an expression of loyalty. You speak your mind to help them grow.
When you have trust and respect, candor shows care.

Politeness is not the same as kindness.
Being polite is saying what makes people feel good today. Being kind is doing what helps people get better tomorrow.
When the norm is politeness, people withhold disagreement and criticism. When the norm is kindness, people speak their minds respectfully.

It takes curiosity to learn. It takes courage to unlearn.
Learning requires the humility to admit what you don't know today. Unlearning requires the integrity to admit that you were wrong yesterday.
Learning is how you evolve. Unlearning is how you keep up as the world evolves.
