13 Invaluable Life Lessons From "The Last Lecture".

- Thread -
1. Brick walls are there for a reason.

- Brick walls are the obstacles in our path. They prove how badly you want things.

- The brick walls are there to stop people who don't want it badly enough.

- Decide the category in which you fall into.
2. Time must be managed, like money.

- Time is all you have. You may find one day that you have less than you think.

- So make best use of your time.
3. Give the gift of knowledge.

- Give your children the gift of knowledge rather than the materialistic things.

- Knowledge is above everything.
4. Feedback means someone cares.

- When someone gives you feedback, it means they care about you.

- You may not want to hear it, but your critics are the ones who still love you and care about you, and want to make you better.
5. Problem solving beats complaining.

- Take one-tenth the energy you put into complaining and apply it to solving the problem.

- Surprise!! Things will work out better than you could even imagine.
6. Experience is everything

- Experience is often the most valuable thing you have to offer.

- It is what you get when you didn't get what you wanted.
7. The best shortcut.

- Working hard is the best shortcut.

- If you work more hours than somebody else, during those hours you learn more about your craft.

- That can make you more efficient, more able, even happier.

- Hard work is like compounded interest in the bank.
8. Lead your life the right way, your dreams will come to you.

- It's not about how to achieve your dreams. It's about how to lead your life.

- If you lead your life the right way, the karma will take care of itself.

- The dreams will come to you.
9. Things are in your control.

- No matter how bad things are, you can always make things worse.

- At the same time, it is often within your power to make them better.

- So, make things better.
10. Learn from all the people in your life.

- You can learn from everyone around you.

- It is way you look and what you observe.

- Take the best, learn it and be the best version of yourself.
11. Be willing to apologize.

- Never think twice to apologize.

- You wont become anything less than you are by apologizing when you are wrong.

- Proper apologies have three parts: 1) what I did was wrong. 2) I feel badly that I hurt you. 3) How do I make this better.
12. Always have fun.

- Have fun every single day.

- Enjoy every moment.

- Because there's no other way to play it.
13. Things are not always what they seem.

- Focus on the big issues/goals.

- Have a big dream, dont get caught up in the tiny problems of day to day life.

- If you have a question, find the answer.
How about you stop dwelling on past and regretting your failures?

How about you take full control over your emotions, thoughts and actions?

What if you could design your ideal future yourself?
