“Deep practice is built on a paradox: struggling in certain targeted ways-operating at the edges of your ability, where you make mistakes-makes you smarter. Or to put it in a slightly different way, experiences where you're forced to slow down, make errors, and correct them-as you would if you were walking up an ice-covered hill, slipping and stumbling as you go-end up making you swift and graceful without your realizing it.” IfsWayInspirationalDifferentEndsCertainRealizingAbilityMistakePracticeStruggleWalkingBuiltErrorsEdgesIceHillsDifferent WaysMaking MistakesParadoxCoveredSmarterSlow DownStumblingSlipping Author:Daniel Coyle
“When ice appears out of doors, and boys seize it up while it is solid, at first they experience new pleasures. But in the end their pride will not agree to let it go, but their acquisition is not good for them if it stays in their hands. In the same way an identical desire drives lovers to act and not to act.” IfsWayFirstsEndsHandsDesirePleasureBoysDoorsPrideLoversAgreeIceLet It GoIdenticalAcquisition Book:Sophocles: Fragments Source: Sophocles: Fragments
“There is no meaningful distinction between eating flesh and eating dairy or other animal products. Animals exploited in the dairy industry live longer than those used for meat, but they are treated worse during their lives, and they end up in the same slaughterhouse after which we consume their flesh anyway. There is probably more suffering in a glass of milk or an ice cream cone than there is in a steak.” EndsUsedSufferingAnimalProductsIndustryEatingGlassesFleshMeaningfulTreatedIceMeatDistinctionMilkCreamIce CreamSteakDairyConesSlaughterhousesIce Cream Cones Book:Animals as Persons: Essays on the Abolition of Animal Exploitation Source: Animals as Persons: Essays on the Abolition of Animal Exploitation
