Show Notes

13 Life Learnings by Maria Popova

  1. Allow yourself the uncomfortable luxury of changing your mind.

  2. Do nothing for prestige or status or money or approval alone.

  3. Be generous. Be generous with your time and your resources and with giving credit and, especially, with your words.

  4. Build pockets of stillness into your life. And thoughts on the “cult of productivity”.

  5. When people tell you who they are, Maya Angelou famously advised, believe them. Just as important, however, when people try to tell you who you are, don’t believe them.

  6. Presence is far more intricate and rewarding an art than productivity

  7. Expect anything worthwhile to take a long time.

  8. Seek out what magnifies your spirit.

  9. Don’t be afraid to be an idealist.

  10. Don’t just resist cynicism — fight it actively.

  11. Question your maps and models of the universe, both inner and outer, and continually test them against the raw input of reality.

  12. There are infinitely many kinds of beautiful lives.

  13. In any bond of depth and significance, forgive, forgive, forgive. And then forgive again.
