“Some women fear the fire. Some women become it ...”

Be happy. Be happy fully. It's so brief. And a blessing. Give in to it.

This is how I feel today. Knowledge is power. Doing things is power. Having agenda and sticking to it is power. You can be like a sharpened knife when you go and claim the world without waiting for anyone giving anything to you.

“Excellence is mundane. Superlative performance is really a confluence of dozens of small skills or activities, each one learned or stumbled upon, which have been carefully drilled into habit and then are fitted together in a synthesized whole. There is nothing extraordinary or superhuman in any one of those actions; only the fact that they are done consistently and correctly, and all together, produce excellence. […] … there is no secret; there is only the doing of all those little things, each one done correctly, time and again, until excellence in every detail becomes a firmly ingrained habit, an ordinary part of one’s everyday life.”

— Daniel F. Chambliss, The Mundanity of Excellence
