“Earlier this week I read a line that stood out to me, “Your goal in life should be to reduce the amount of time it takes you to get out of a bad state.”

The ability to bounce back quickly is a key skill in life.

My wife once told me, “When you're five, you can be mad for a day. When you're ten, you can be mad for an hour. By the time you're thirty, you get ten minutes—and then you have to move on.”

Life is full of moments of frustration and disappointment. Growth and maturity is learning to pull yourself out of a bad state faster.”
