From Age 20 - 55, read this;

1. Stop saying yes because you feel guilty saying no.

2. You really are the average of the people you spend time with

3. Invest on your health: sleep, diet, fitness routine, skincare, hair - you will start seeing the impact in your late 20s

4. Aim to be the top 1% in one thing or the top 10% in multiple things.

5. Learn to write well, and consistently - writing the highest leverage skill you can learn.

6. Build a financial safety net to give you to optionality to take risks in your 30s and 40s

7. Learn to stop people pleasing and giving a shit what others think about you

8. You are also the average of the media sources you spend the most time consuming

9. Kindness is free

10. don’t meet with a “mentor” every month - it’s pointless. Instead learn by doing interesting work with exceptional people

11. Just play your own game and ignore 99% of advice, including this. You know a lot.

You can get whatever you want if:

• You want something that is physically possible
• You know exactly what you want
• You figure out how to get it
• You put in the work
• You're patient

If your goal meets these criteria, you can achieve it.

Believe in your potential.

Laziness is a Sin

[Tej Dosa @ComedicBizman]

- Deep Work 2 hours
- Break 2 hours
- Deep Work 2 hours
- Break 1 hour
- Deep Work 1 hour

Test it for a day and you'll realize:

All $$$ are made during the 'breaks' because that's when your subconscious is free to cook up breakthrough ideas/angles.

You have 3 currencies in life. Knowledge, Time & Money. When you need one, use the other two to get it

[Vonn @itsthewealth4me]

5 books, I'd recommend to get more aligned with your finances & plans:

- The Power of Broke - Daymond John
- Get Up & Get On It - Dana Frank
- The Financial Abundance Blueprint - Amanda Henry
- I'll Teach You To Be Rich - Ramit Sethi
- Your Money or Your Life - Vicki Robin

[Alex Hormozi @AlexHormozi]

You can only measure how much you want something by what you’re willing to give up to get it.

And it turns out, most people want feeling smart, feeling comfortable, and feeling accepted more than winning.

[Sahil Bloom @SahilBloom]

I want to be boring in the right ways. Go to bed early. Wake up early. Eat simple foods. Save money. Exercise. Love your people. Read old books. Avoid drama. Be grateful. Boring is seriously underrated.

[Russell Brunson @russellbrunson]

You don’t need more strategies. You need to become the kind of person who takes action.

[CooperBaggs 💰🍞 @edgaralandough]

Obsess. For f*ck sakes. You only get one life. Don’t screw it up by being normal. Go all in. Act like a psycho. Let people call you insane. Please. I beg you. Obsession is the path.

[Path of Men @PathOfMen_]

Do all the things that scare you. Start the business. Approach the girl. Book the trip. Move to the country you keep daydreaming about. Buy the bike. Say the thing. Take the shot. The worst case scenario is almost never as bad as your brain made it out to be. But the regret of never trying? That one actually sticks. You will forget most of your embarrassing moments within a year. You will remember every chance you were too scared to take for the rest of your life.

How to accomplish the most in the next week than you have in the last 3 months...

[blue @bluewmist]

make yourself so busy, so disciplined, so determined that you don't have time to know what's happening in other people's lives, making pointless comparisons, or irrational opinions. stay focused and devoted to yourself.

[Men of Purpose @Men_Of_Purpose]

He literally explains why self help works and how ❓

[gomi @parveen__tyagi]

as long as you keep showing up, the results won’t have a choice. just keep showing up. day in, day out cause some of the biggest changes in your life will happen slowly before they happen all at once. even when it feels repetitive. even when it feels boring. even when you feel like you’re putting in effort and getting nothing back yet. keep showing up. keep doing the work. keep trusting that every small thing you do is adding up somewhere. life rewards the people who stay consistent long enough for the results to finally catch up.

[blue @bluewmist]

You need to be attention-span-maxing.

Watch 3 hour talks. Read books for hours at a time. Watch the entire movie, without taking a break. Stare into space losing yourself in thought and imagination. Do not check your phone. The opposite of brain-rot is the will to focus in a culture which wants to pull you every other way.

[Reads with Ravi @readswithravi]

Robert Greene said it right:

“Eventually, the time that was not spent on learning skills will catch up with you, and the fall will be painful.”

[The Sigma Mindset @thesigmamindset]

Next time you're feeling sad or down remember what Eddie Murphy once said...

[Vonn @itsthewealth4me]

You're throwing your life away because you have a dopamine addiction

You're addicted to the phone, you can't concentrate on your plans because it's not stimulating enough, and you keep starting and stopping everything year after year

You can change that, and you should
