15 Life Lessons I;m Glad I Learned at 21 and not 41:
- You need to start
This is your Life.It’s too short to keep putting off doing
what you want to do.Live your life – not anyone else.
- Your environment Is crucial
Regardless of how disciplined or motivated you are. If you’re
in the wrong environment you’ll never
get anything done.
- Be ready to
pivot
Things change, plans fall through and life happens. Be Ready
and willing to pivot when chasing your goals according to what feedback you’re
getting.
- Books are
mental masturbation
I love reading , love learning.But too much reading and not enough doing is just like binge –
watching youtube. Read , apply, repeat.
- You need to
be selfish
You can’t pour from an empty cup. So be selfish , fill your
cup first and then you can be selfless and pour into others.
- The gym is
preparation
In the gym , your mind is telling you to quit the whole time.
By not qutting , you’re building your mental fortitude and resilience in
preparation for lie.
- You can’t
stop learning
The moment you stop learning, you stop progressing. Acquire
new knowledge , learn new skills, apply , progress, repeat.
- Not everyone
wants you to win
Learn to recognize those that truly want the best for you and
those who don’t cut the latter out.
- Risk is a
part of life
Whether you’re taking a new job, starting your own business
or moving country anything that has the potential to improve your life involves
risk. Embrace it.
- Challenge your
beliefs
Why do you believe something? Because your parents told you? Because
the news told you? Challenge what you believe , be willing to listen to
opposing opinions and always be ready to learn.
- Money can
buy happiness
Money can buy time freedom , location freedom and most
importantly the opportunity to do what actually makes you happy.
- You need
discomfort
Whether it’s physical discomfort in the gym or mental discomfort
when chasing your goals . embracing discomfort is the key to long –term fulfillment.
- Nobody knows
what they’re doing
No , really
Nobody has it all figured out, everyone is just blindly
taking a step in what is hopefully the right direction.
- Failure isn’t
final
Failure is nothing but a sign telling you which direction not
to go. Stop treating it like a never – ending red light.
- Consistency
always wins
Talented but not
consistent? You’ll fail . hard – working but not consistent? You’ll fail.
So long as you have consistency –you’ll win (eventually)
