“The success that comes from my books is not something I feel very comfortable with. Past a certain point you have to accept the idea that the success is a lot to do with the timing and luck and that divorces you from it massively. There are aspects of it that I haven't got used to at all. But I've enjoyed some parts of it massively. It relates to the same reason I did a lot of backpacking partly for the experience it's something to tell my grandkids. It's a weird chain of events to have in your life.” FeelsBookIdeasReasonPastUsedCertainAcceptingEventsHavensComfortableAspectLuckDivorceChainsEnjoyedRelateTimingGrandkidsBackpackingChain Of Events Author:Alex Garland

Going to Paris in 1907 I oppositely standed alone in front of millions with only the result of the divine providence, and I beat the vanity of the world hollow, but I haven't killed 10 million people, only sobered them.

“Relaxation, acceptance, and keeping open mind are key. First of all, peak performance isn't possible if one is not relaxed, and if one is going to stay relaxed they must simply accept problems when they arise and decide to solve them. If I can't do a move I merely accept that I haven't discovered the right sequence, instead of trying the same sequence over and over or just quitting. I will try to do it 20 or 30 different ways, making subtle changes in body position and fot placement, until I find something that does work. That's what I mean by keeping an open mind.” IfsWayTryingMindFirstsMeanDoeI CanDifferentProblemBodyMovingAcceptingHavensPositionAcceptanceKeysPerformancesSolveQuittingAriseDifferent WaysSubtleRelaxationRelaxedSequenceOpen MindKeep An Open MindPlacementPeak Performance Author:Lynn Hill

“It is true (independently of our conceptualisation) that it is wrong to inflict pain on a sentient creature for no reason (she doesn't deserve it, I haven't promised to do it, it is not helpful to this creature or to anyone else if I do it, and so forth). But if this is a truth, existing independently of our conceptualisation, then at least one moral fact (this one) exists and moral realism is true.
