Lockdown is temporary, Social distancing is permanent!

Fast, lift, sprint, stretch, and meditate. Build, sell, write, create, invest, and own. Read, reflect, love, seek truth, and ignore society. Make these habits. Say no to everything else. Avoid debt, jail, addiction, disgrace, shortcuts, and media. Relax. Victory is assured.

One of the greatest forms of freedom comes from knowing what is important to you. It grants you the freedom to ignore everything else.
