Sports. Running. Any kind of physical activity. The lowest barrier to entry, yet the greatest results.

Endorphins on the spot. Better health. Letting go of pent-up frustration. Physical progress and strength and beauty that no one can take from you.

It reminds you: you exist in your body, on earth. When running, all you have is the sound of your feet on the ground. When lifting, all you focus on is your hands gripping the bar.

This focus recenters you—away from the world of circular thought and into who you are at this moment.

Don't suffocate the alternate Nours. Allow them to breathe and flourish.

You contain multitudes. You are the sum of Nours—an ever-growing sum of shining stars, a constellation of skills and beings.

Dance. Pottery. Painting. Photography. Reading. Writing. Singing. Whatever it is—mais tu dois nourrir ton cerveau et ta vie—it's yearning for more.

You have to become your selves. And your selves can develop in parallel. This helps one Nour handle setbacks while other Nours have good things progressing in your life.

It's almost like diversifying your investments to ensure not all your eggs are in one basket—but more poetically, more humanly: let your beauty express herself. Become stronger, more centered, more resilient.

We all know that the situation you're in is hard, and unfair. What you feel is incredibly legitimate.

But it's also important to remember: a horse only focusing on the hurdle in front of him will only get more stressed as it gets closer and it feels bigger and insurmountable.

Think of what's beyond the hurdle. Think of the road you're on, its destination—even beyond the stadium. This is a stepping stone, your stepping stone, and it will at some point be a distant memory.

Focus on the full trip, the full destination. Think and dream about what you want. This will help you stay focused on why you're doing what you're doing and what you need to do to reach the life you want.

Breathe. Dream. Jump. You are free and moving forward.

Heavily linked to the constellation and strategic patience: reinforce the Nours that are not directly affected by purchasing power.

It's their time to shine. The intellectual Nours. The artistic Nours. The meditating Nours. The strong athletic Nours.

Let them carry you through this phase.

Build something. Build something that is yours.

Rely on the people you trust, on your loved ones, on the relationships you want to strengthen and maintain and grow and deepen—and build something.

A club? A brand? An art project? A song? A dinner party? Build something. Build somethings.

You own nothing really other than what you build. First step is building the Nours. Next is building the stuff that Nours needs to flourish, to feel, to be—beyond the 9-to-5 jobs or the day-to-day life.

Build the permanence. The stuff that will make you you. The stuff that will remain as life throws challenges. Even stuff that will start and fail—but the simple fact of building, of knowing you can build, of flexing the building muscles gives you so much confidence and strength to weather any kind of storm and gets you closer to the life you want and deserve.

Remember the certain ultra-smart and ultra-talented people that were in love with you and were going above and beyond for you. Build something with them. Build something by yourself.
