“To see oneself in combat at every moment, to win each battle with honor and dignity, without fear, without regret, with courage.
In life, we need a fighting spirit.
Those who enter without the spirit of war see little in the struggle.”

We don’t even wake up and a thousand pieces of information are already thrown at us. Stay focused on what you aim for, ignore everything else.
Think like this: “Does this bring me closer to or farther from the person I want to become?”
Ask yourself this constantly, all day long — it’s what I’m learning to do.

“16. Do not seek luxurious comfort.” - Dokkodo, Miyamoto Musashi.
The pursuit of luxury—I’ve never understood it. I believe it often comes from trying to fill a hole one feels inside, but it doesn’t fill it. So they chase more and more luxury, hoping to find one that does. What will truly fulfill you is within you, not outside.
