The Cornerstones

We all have many areas of our lives that we want to improve.

In fact, there are so many of them that it can get overwhelming.

If you’ve ever tried setting goals for every major category, like your career, finances, health, family, education, personal growth, and so on, you probably know what I mean.

It’s easy to spread yourself too thin and make very little progress in all of them.

And that’s why I find this little piece of wisdom from Sigmund Freud so helpful:

Love and work are the cornerstones of our humanness.

These two areas are really all you need to master.

Because if you create deep relationships and find a meaningful job, everything else will tend to take care of itself.
