[Orange Book 🍊📖 @orangebook]

Getting frequently rejected and ignored is actually healthy, it helps you stay as driven as you were when you still had everything to prove, it reminds you that no one cares until you make the effort to become a valuable person first.

10 ideas that changed our lives (and may change yours):

Last Friday, we hosted an event in London in front of a sold out crowd of 500+ people.

The topic: 10 ideas that changed our lives.

Here were the ideas we shared:

1. There's no such thing as a loser who wakes up at 5am and works out.

A lot of success is determined by your own beliefs about yourself. When you're in a negative place, the most impactful action is the one that makes you self-identify as a winner. Waking up early and working out is hard. If you can do that, you're a winner. Winning begets more winning.

2. Energy is not finite.

Energy expands and contracts as a function of the activities you're engaged in. Certain activities are energy creating, certain activities are energy draining. Most of us spend too little time in our energy creating activities.

3. No one has it all figured out.

No one knows what they want to be when they grow up. Some are just a bit better at putting on a brave face, following their curiosity, and marching courageously into the unknown.

4. Direction over destination.

It is impossible (and rather anxiety-inducing) to attempt to determine your exact destination in life. Instead, focus on pointing your compass in the right direction. If you do that, you'll wind up where you were meant to be.

5. Focus on the WHO, not the HOW.

I no longer focus on the journey or the destination, I focus on the people. When you surround yourself with inspiring people, the journeys are more beautiful and the destinations are more brilliant.

6. Increase your luck surface area.

You can take actions that expand your odds of getting lucky. When choosing between two paths, always choose the path that has a larger luck surface area.

7. Default to trust.

In life, we all have a choice of whether to default to trust or skepticism. Always default to trust. When you occasionally get burned, view it as a tiny tax against all of the incredible benefit you will experience from this default setting.

8. The waiting room is always full.

Your "waiting room" of projects to tackle, people to see, and ideas to pursue will always be full. You will never make a dent in it. Do your best, work on energy creating activities, and have faith in the process.

9. The good old days are happening right now.

The "good old days" are happening right now. The life you're living today is something that your younger self would have dreamed of. You've done more than you think. Zoom out and reclaim perspective.

10. Time is your most precious asset.

Never let the quest for more distract you from the beauty of enough. Treat time as your ultimate currency. Spend it wisely, with those you love, in ways you’ll never regret.

Those 10 ideas changed our lives (and may change yours).

What were your favorites? What would you add to the list?

"Getting money, and being able to keep that money are two vastly different skills.

Getting money requires action, taking risks, being positive.

Keeping money requires just the opposite skills - playing safe, being fearful, and a lot of inaction."
