- view your life as book, and you as the author - destroy the book and write a new one if you're unhappy
- be a little delusional - people who are always realistic will never see opportunities because they never pushed the boundaries - always being practical is fear in disguise :) - the most successful people are a little delusional
- forgive your parents - they are just children in older bodies
- enjoy being lost in life :) - scary, but reframe it
- you have to build your own dreams or someone will hire you to build theirs
- no one knows what they're doing!! people are just good at hiding it. No one has a manual for life :) point your own compass in the right direction for you
- always apply the 7 * 7 rule - if it won't matter in 7 years, don't waste more than 7 minutes stressing about it
- spending more time with your loved ones is never a waste of time
- more information is not the answer to your problems - research becomes procrastination. We need more executing lessons, not looking them up
- Invest in your body or you will pay 1000x later (time and money)- one of the best steps to wealth is consistent diet and exercise
- Appreciate what you're living in now <3 the good ol days are now!
- everything in life is a trade off - ex. saving for retirement vs. nice vacation now
- people will come and go through your life, accept it for what it is and value who sticks around.
- completion doesn't exist - you'll never have "everything" to be happy (enough money, enough relationships, enough "success")
- bonus : happiness is a practice, not a destination :)
- scarcity is one of the worst types of programming that we grew up with - feeling like options are limited - just show up as your own true self and demand the world
- you don't need most of the material things you want - we justify materialism by saying they'll finally make us happy
- Stop waiting to "feel like it" - inspired or in the right mood - the perfect moment doesn't exist! stop ruining your future self because your present self felt like waiting around
- Do 1% less of the bad things, and 1% more of the good things (ex. just 30 minutes dedicated to goals)
- when you want something, ask for it: and when you don't hear back, follow up! you have nothing to lose and evverything to gain.
- mental energy is one of your most valuable resources - set boundaries, prioritize
- you will work hard early in life or late in life, but you decide which. If you don't work now it will be due later in life
- if it's something you can figure out, don't complain. Change your own life
- your life can change in 2 seconds - hug, love, and embrace your people with your heart
- always trust the coin - coin flip, you will automatically hope for one option
- start adding "yet" to the ends of sentences - reminder that you can acheive anything
- don't be afraid to take risks - especially younger in life, you will regret not doing it
- how you start your morning sets a tone for your entire day - physically energetic
- the only person you should feel obligated to say yes to is yourself
- the true benefit of money is not buying "fancy things" - it's buying time and freedom. Once you spend your time, you never get it back
