3. Observe, not control

4. Find your #flow
“The happiest people are not the ones who achieve the most. They are the ones who spend more time than others in a state of flow.”

5. Be antifragile
"To build resilience into our lives, we shouldn’t fear adversity as each setback is an opportunity for growth. If we adopt an antifragile attitude, we’ll
find a way to get stronger with every blow, refining our lifestyle and staying focused on our ikigai."
