The epic alternative
When you're bored or unhappy or doing something unproductive, ask what could you be doing that would lead to greatness?
Take action
Love is more beautiful with more stories.
Inaction doesn't make a good story. If you want to stay motivated, live a life full of stories.

It is one’s ability to change (Albert Einstein).

Be intentional
Avoid being aimless and mindless. If you can’t come up with a positive reason for why you’re doing something, don’t do it.

Success and failure are both the just fuel of life. You are far more than what you do.
