Smart words from smart people

A few smart things I’ve read lately and stuck in my head:

• “A great way to understand yourself is to seriously reflect on everything you find irritating in others.”
  ― Kevin Kelly

• “The only reason the world seemed like a better place during your childhood is because you were a child.”
  ― Jon Stewart

• “Life is easier when you know what you want—but most people don’t take the time to figure out what they want."
  ― James Clear

• “Stress primarily comes from not taking action about something which you actually have control over.”
  ― Jeff Bezos

• “Happiness is a choice and a skill and you can dedicate yourself to learning that skill and making that choice.”

  ― Steve Jobs
