We all get shaped by adversity. All the great things that have happened to me in my life that I consider highly positive… they all started with something highly negative.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
The three big ones in life are wealth, health, and happiness. We pursue them in that order but their importance is in the reverse.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
My number one priority in life, above my happiness, above my family, above my work, is my own health. It starts with my physical health. Second, it’s my mental health. Third, it’s my spiritual health. Then it’s my family’s health
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
On what is the purpose of life: To keep growing and learning in the short period of time that you have. To seek truth and to accept things the way they are. To see the world the way it really is. Then, just to live your life. I think that’s it. Any deeper meanings or goals just lead to ideologies, which lead to desires, and belief systems, and disappointments and conflict.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
If you look back at your life on your deathbed at all the interesting things you’ve done, they’re all going to be centered around the sacrifices you’ve made and the hard things that you did.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
We are overexposed to everything. The way to survive in modern society is to be an ascetic, it is to retreat from society. There’s too much society everywhere you go. You have society in your phone, society in your pocket, society in your ears… It’s socializing you and programming everyone. The only solution is turn it off.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
Humans are basically habit machines […] I think learning how to break habits is actually a very important meta skill and can serve you in life almost better than anything else.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
When building habits, choose consistency over content. The best book is the one you can’t put down. The best exercise is the one you enjoy doing every day. The best health food is the one you find tasty. The best work is the work you’d do for free.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
Don’t do things that you know are morally wrong. Not because someone is watching, but because you are. Self-esteem is just the reputation that you have with yourself.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
When looking for a purpose to life, notice that most things are stepping stones, done for ulterior motives. True art, love, and play stand apart, as they are done for their own sakes.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
The more you judge people and things, the more you’re going to separate yourself. You’ll feel good for an instant… but then you’re gonna feel lonely and then you’re just going to see negativity everywhere. The world just reflects your own feelings back at you.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
All humans are meant to do something different every day. The idea that we repeat ourselves and we specialize and we pigeon hole ourselves is a modern invention created through specialization of labor in the industrial revolution.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
A great goal in life would be to not have to be in a given place at a given time… Being accountable for your output rather than your input. I would love to be paid purely for my judgment.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
On the meaning of life: You get to make up your own answer and that’s the beauty of it. If there was a single answer, we wouldn’t be free. We’d be trapped because we’d all have to live to that answer. We’d be robots competing with each other trying to fulfill that meaning more than the next person.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
If you’re going to pick 3 cards in the hand you’re dealt, take intelligence, drive, and most importantly, emotional self-discipline.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
A personal metric: how much of the day is spent doing things out of obligation rather than out of interest?
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
Stop caring about the impact and just be the best version of you possible – then you’ll naturally have an impact.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
I think happiness is a skill, nutrition is a skill, diet is a skill, investing is a skill, self awareness is a skill. And skills get built up over decades with feedback loops and you just have to constantly keep working on it.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
There’s no certainty in life. You can put in the hours, you can put in the time, but you can’t really expect the outcome.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
You have to be pretty ruthless about saying no to things, about turning people down, and about leaving room in your life for serendipity.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
If you don’t make time for people when they’re requesting time for you, yes it’s a little painful, it’s a little socially awkward, but the people aren’t going to disrespect you. If anything they want to hang out with you even more, because they realize you’re very discriminating with your time.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
We’re genetically wired to be pessimists, but modern society is far, far safer.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
It made sense to be pessimistic in the past, but it makes sense to be an optimist today.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
We just play games in life. You grow up, you’re playing the school game, you’re playing the social game. Then you’re playing the money game; then you’re playing the status game. These games just have longer and longer and longer-lived horizons. At some point, at least I believe that these are all just games. There are games where the outcome really stops mattering once you see through a game.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
Your closest friends are the ones you can have a relationship with about nothing.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
Everything you’re a winner at now in your life, you were a once a loser at.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
I wish I had done all of the same things but with less emotion and less anger.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
I like to stay free because then I can see the little miracles in life. There are little miracles everywhere; it’s just we have taken them for granted.
Quote by -Naval Ravikant
“I've lived through some terrible things in my life, some of which actually happened.”
Quote by -Mark Twain
“Part of the secret of success in life is to eat what you like and let the food fight it out inside.”
Quote by -Mark Twain
“There was never yet an uninteresting life. Such a thing is an impossibility. Inside of the dullest exterior there is a drama, a comedy, and a tragedy.”
Quote by -Mark Twain
“Life is short, break the rules, forgive quickly, kiss slowly, love truly, laugh uncontrollably, and never regret anything that made you smile. Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
Quote by -Mark Twain
“Life does not consist mainly, or even largely, of facts or happenings. It consist mainly of the storm of thoughts that is forever flowing through one's head.”
Quote by -Mark Twain
