1 Be a lifelong learner
Lifelong learners recognize the importance of personal development (and embrace the journey).
They are never satisfied. They always seek to improve. They never settle for just "knowing".
This is what keeps you youthful.
This is what sets you apart.
2 Embrace optimism
See the glass as half full instead of half empty.
Your mindset is a CHOICE
The most successful people I know are also the most optimistic. This is not a coincidence.
3 Have high standards
Quality control for life.
When you adopt high standards you will become more authentic. Others will respect you more. You will develop a stronger identity.
Never attach your name to anything mediocre.
Make excellence a choice.
4. Focus on creative outputs
Creativity is the route to authenticity.
The more you create, the more you discover who YOU are. Great works are made through great habits.
5. Spend time in nature
Enjoy Nature. Go on a pointless walk. Soak in the sunshine. You were put on Planet Earth for a reason.
Enjoy your time here. Trust me.
6. Accept responsibility
The day you start living is the day you take responsibility.
Stop blaming your parents.
Stop blaming other people.
Stop blaming society.
There is only one person responsible for your life.
(It's YOU)
7. Embrace mistakes
Everything at its core is a learning experience.
Believe in change. Failure does not exist.
Never let failure manifest in your mind.
View everything as a new possibility.
8. Learn how to say NO
The moment you start saying yes to everything is the moment you live on others people's terms.
Stop letting others dictate your life.
It's okay to make yourself a priority.
9. Stop caring what others think
No one else's opinion should matter more than your OWN. Most people are too ill-informed to make clear judgments on your life. You call the shots.
Life is too short to live in judgment.
