The truth nobody wants to hear about success: It's boring as hell.

The same morning routine for 1,000 days. Same workout. Same healthy lunch. Same evening review. No variety. No excitement. Just relentless repetition. That's why most people quit. They think success should feel inspiring. It doesn't. It feels like Tuesday. Every day. For years. Get comfortable with boring or stay broke.

Вторник -- прекрасный день, я очень люблю вторники. Лучше вторников только субботы, когда можно весь день доказывать леммы или печатать по клавишам за компьютером в офисе, и вообще ничего не мешает.

Но, конечно, я ем вкусное, а не healthy. И предпочитаю каждый день разное, а не одно и то же (чему чешская традиция бизнес-ланчей дает прекрасные возможности). И разумеется, я не делаю никаких workouts; зато нахожу свою работу очень exciting и inspiring! Быть мне банкротом до конца моих дней.

The best advice my mentor gave me: "Stop trying to skip the struggle.

That's where all the lessons live." Everyone wants the result without the process. The success without the failure. The reward without the work. But the struggle isn't the obstacle. It's the education. The people you admire didn't avoid difficulty. They just got comfortable being uncomfortable.

Да, именно так.

Заголовок: ‘Blood and Soil’: Harvard Conservative Group Publishes Hitleresque Essay Amid Rise in Right-Wing Antisemitism

Релевантное содержание к заявлению про "Hitleresque Essay" в заголовке:

"Written by David F.X. Army, the article chillingly echoed a January 1939 Reichstag speech in which Hitler portended mass killings of Jews as the outcome of Germany’s inexorable march toward war with France and Great Britain. Whereas Hitler said, “France to the French, England to the English, America to the Americans, and Germany to the Germans,” Army wrote, “Germany belongs to the Germans, France to the French, Britain to the British, America to the Americans.”

Army also called for the adoption of notions of “blood, soil, language, and love of one’s own” in response to concerns over large-scale migration of Muslims into Europe.

<...>

The Salient maintains that Army has not consumed Nazi literature and that no one who reviewed his contribution recognized its Nazi tropes. Denouncing scrutiny of the Salient as a political conspiracy on a campus in which students say promoting conservative viewpoints is a social crime, magazine editor Richard Y. Rodgers said The Harvard Crimson, the main campus newspaper, converted the “resemblance” into a “headline.”

“Our clarification, that neither the author nor the editors had recognized the resemblance and that the phrase long predates the Third Reich, was mentioned but immediately minimized. The insinuation stuck,” Rodgers continued. “The coverage forms a coherent script. The conservative scholar becomes the reactionary theorist. The traditionalist student becomes the bigot. The publication that prints their ideas becomes the threat. ‘Fascism’ is no longer a historical reference but a weaponized cliche, a way to place opponents outside the moral guardrails of the university. To be labeled ‘authoritarian,’ ‘integralist,’ or Nazi-adjacent is to be rendered abominable.”

The Salient‘s alumni board announced on Sunday that the magazine would temporarily halt its operations pending an investigation.

“The Harvard Salient has recently published articles containing reprehensible, abusive, and demeaning … material that is, in addition, wholly inimical to the conservative principles for which the magazine stands,” it said. “The board has also received deeply disturbing and credible complaints about the broader culture of the organization. It is our fiduciary responsibility to investigate these matters fully and take appropriate action to address them. We are therefore pausing operations of the magazine, effective immediately, pending our review.”

Rodgers announced on Tuesday that the conservative student magazine would remain active despite the suspension."

По-моему, очевидно, что Роджерс совершенно прав, а Школяры за Пис в Миддл Исте сугубо неправы. Хамас у ворот; может быть, пора уже перестать искать нацистов под кроватью?
