At what age are you at "The Prime of Your Life?" @FI_Squirrel

That's a good question.

I have the answer.

(short thread 👇🏽) Image
When you're 25 it's 25.
When you're 35 it's 35.
When you're 55 it's 55.

If you have the right mindset, you're living in the prime of your life.

If you don't, your prime will always be behind or ahead of you.
Being self aware is an underrated and underused superpower.
3 life changing ways to change your mindset ►
Learn to meditate:

DON'T MAKE THIS MORE COMPLICATED THAN IT NEEDS TO BE.

10 minutes a day is enough. I use a guided meditation app. You don't have to.

Study meditation

and then

Meditate
Begin a habit of journaling:

Here's an easy way to start.

Every night before bed (or every morning before you wake up)

• Write 3 things you did that day.

Do that for a week.

And then add

• Write 3 things you're grateful for

BOOM!

You now have a habit of journaling.
Change your self-talk:

I'm 55. One thing I've learned is that our greatest challenge to happiness and success is often linked to the way we talk to ourselves.

Be self aware.

Listen to yourself.

We often treat ourselves worse than we treat total strangers.
This is how you should talk to yourself

• I'm grateful
• I'm beautiful
• I'm a student
• I'm consistent
• Today is a good day
• Others don't define me
• I don't know everything
• I don't judge or criticize myself
• I don't compare myself to others

• "I love you"

7 ways to raise well rounded, healthy kids that you've never thought about.

I moved from the U.S. to Guatemala 9 years ago.

It’s easy to see how toxic it is for parents to fill their kids lives with endless sports & activities.

A petri dish of anxiety.

Teach them not to be afraid of failure.

Ask them every day, “What did you fail at today?”

If they failed, they’re growing.

Reframe failure.

“Imagine if schools viewed mistakes the way programmers do: Not as signs of failure, but as “bugs” that can be fixed.” @anafabrega11
Help them to fall in love with reading.

• They have a significantly higher chance of loving to read, if you read.
• 1 hour of reading for 30 min. of tv or video games.

When we sold everything to move to Guatemala,

A country that has 100 murders a week,

Our friends thought we were crazy & our family threatened to cut us off .

// tiny thread //
10 years later, some of them are still shaking their head, waiting for us to fold up and come back home.

We're still here, living in one of the most beautiful corners of the planet, serving the poor.

Thriving.
What are you putting off?
What are you doing that people would call you crazy for?

What do you really have to lose?

We sold everything we owned,
Except for 2 suitcases each,
And moved to a 3rd World Country.

Here are 5 things we did in our quest to find our life’s purpose.

// A THREAD // Image
First of all, there are no rules.

“Go to school,
get good grades,
get into a good college,
graduate and get a good job.”

IT'S NOT A RULE.
As a matter of fact, in many cases,

It’s a lie.

If you’re stuck in a job, you hate going to every day,
If you’re stuck in a life, you don’t recognize anymore,

Maybe you’re not fulfilling your higher purpose.

I’ve made a TON of mistakes.

If I could,
I’d send these 21 words of advice,
to my 21-year-old self.

[[ A THREAD ]]
Reward toxic people in your life,

With distance.
The government won’t save you.

There aren’t enough stimulus checks to dig you out of your bad habits.

How we got out $45,000 of debt in one year.

It wasn’t sexy.

(thread)
You have to want it.

We were tired of not having enough money at the end of the month. Exhausted really.

We owned two small businesses and we were grossing $90,000 a year!

If we lost even one of our clients, we would have been in real trouble.
Have a strong driving reason to get out of debt this way.

• we wanted to give more
• we wanted to make the world a better place

We couldn't do that in debt.

I completed my 55th trip around the sun a few days ago.

No regrets. None.

This is how I got to a place

full of adventure,
full of life,
full of love
and filled with gratitude

With all my heart, I wish the same for you.

When you tell someone you love them,

Mean it.
Learn to be alone.

Alone doesn’t equal lonely.
