Stillness Is the Key by Ryan Holiday

Clearly, basketball was a refuge for Michael Jordan, a game he
loved and that provided him much satisfaction. But in the pursuit of
winning and domination, he also turned it into a kind of raw, open
wound, one that seemed to never stop bleeding or cause pain. One
that likely cost him additional years of winning, as well as the simple
enjoyment of a special evening at the Hall of Fame in Springfield,
Massachusetts.
That can’t be what you want. That can’t be who you want to be.
Which is why we must choose to drive out anger and replace it
with love and gratitude—and purpose. Our stillness depends on our
ability to slow down and choose not to be angry, to run on different
fuel. Fuel that helps us win and build, and doesn’t hurt other people,
our cause, or our chance at peace.
