Life goes on

 Nobody belongs to you, nobody is yours. Enjoy people, the moments, and the experience.

The worst will pass

 All your feelings are dictated not by your circumstances but by your thoughts about your circumstances. If you can find comfort in necessary pain, you immediately give yourself an unfair advantage. The worst will pass, as it always does. Trust that everything you experience in your life is timed perfectly.

If happiness is not found now

People are always looking for happiness at some future time and in some new thing, or some new set of circumstances, in possession of which they some day expect to find themselves. But the fact is, if happiness is not found now, where we are, and as we are, there is little chance of it ever being seen. There is a great deal more happiness around us day by day than we have the sense or the power to seek and find.

Truth trumps narrative

What you're taught isn’t always what matters. Truth trumps narrative. You can temporarily rally people around what sounds good, but reality eventually imposes its verdict.

Move on and let them be wrong

If someone is acting like an idiot, you can just move on and let them be wrong. You do not have a personal obligation to correct people who are committed to being stupid. Sure, sometimes you need to attempt to get on the same page, but usually you can simply reclaim your time and move on to more productive ventures.

Our weakest arguments dilute the strongest

We assume that the more arguments we give, the better our case. In reality, our weakest arguments dilute the strongest. Generally, you’ll only be as convincing as your worst point, so make only the best instead of making as many arguments as possible.

Give people their flowers

When you think something nice about someone, let them know right then. This inspiration is perishable. Give people their flowers while you still can.
