Many people waste years waiting for someone to come and save them.
Smart people quickly understand that no one is coming, and start helping themselves.
Mind-changing books are uncomfortable.
Wealth-changing bets are uncomfortable.
Life-changing decisions are uncomfortable.
Change is always uncomfortable.
21. Play A Sucker To Catch A Sucker - Seem Dumber Than Your Mark
Make your victims feel smart - and not just smart, but smarter than you. They will never suspect that you will have ulterior motives.
5. Taking action
Most people's time:
80% thinking
20% action
Flip those numbers and you watch your life transform.
80% action
20% thinking
Shortening the time between the thought, and the implementation of the thought is a game-changer.
4. Focus
Every day this skill gets more valuable.
Attention spans are dwindling.
Distraction is everywhere.
Simply being able to focus on one thing without interruption for 45 minutes will separate you from 98% of the population.
3. Sales
Ok, now hear me out.
Have you ever:
- Asked for a raise
- Had a job interview
- Asked someone on a date
- Asked your child to clean up
That's sales.
Negotiation and persuasion.
Whether you realize it or not, you're doing some form of selling nearly every day.
2. Communication
Good luck getting through life without this one.
Your ability to effectively communicate your thoughts impacts everything you do:
• Friendships
• Business
• Dating
• Career
• Family
Learn this if you want to leave an impact on the world.

"Meditation isn’t hard. All you have to do is sit there and do nothing. Just sit down. Close your eyes and say, 'I’m just going to give myself a break for an hour. This is my hour off from life. This is the hour I’m not going to do anything.'"

"Some of the most creative and productive people I have ever met work in multi-week bursts and then have weeks where they just idle with little done. It’s the nature of the human animal."
