After quitting 3 jobs in less than 3 years, I think I might have
learned something in life.

In one of my recent stories, I share 8 crucial life lessons I could identify.

👇
1 - Nobody is going to hand you something in life. You have to pursue the things you’re interested in.

You don’t have to do it on your own, but you have to do it yourself.
2 - Win or learn — as long as you learn from your mistakes, there’s no room for loss.
3 - Life is a marathon, not a sprint. You can’t run, run and run — without reflecting and adjusting your course every now and then.

You will end up nowhere. We’re here for the long term, so we have to be mindful.
You need to ask for help — you don’t have to reinvent the wheel, just ask the people around you for help and guidance.

You will be amazed by their support.

Stop.

Have you ever heard of skim stoppers?
I know I didn't.

Since I've learned about them, they've improved my writing so much.

I bet you could benefit from using skim stoppers in your writing as well.

Let's get into it..
Nowadays, people don’t read online.

We’re either too busy, too bored, or too impatient.

Randomness - Play the ball where the monkey drops is.
When the British introduced golf in India, they encountered indigenous monkeys that were intrigued by the little white balls.
Climbing down the trees, they picked them up and took off.

What is it, exactly, that people are ‘really’ afraid of when they say they don’t like change?

Is changing course a sign of weakness?

I believe that being able to change is strong. To swim against the tide.

We have to adapt our course based on new facts.

So, what you think?
“Better the devil you know than the devil you don’t.”
Self-interest guides opposition to changes.

Lack of self-awareness fuels it even more.

Once you master any system, you might become blind to its flaws.
