As we get older, we get better at choosing in ways that will make us happy. We do a better job at picking activities that make us happy, and at spending time with people who make us happy. We're also better at letting things go.

I like to think that as I get older I'm getting better at spending time with people who have qualities that make them worth spending time with.

Choice is more than picking 'x' over 'y.' It is a responsibility to separate the meaningful and the uplifting from the trivial and the disheartening. It is the only tool we have that enables us to go from who we are today to who we want to be tomorrow.

Sometimes spending time with someone who is perceived as 'successful' can make us feel less successful.

You have a part-time job and that's better than no job at all.

I get a huge buzz from spending time with kids.
