The journey of this world is trailed with valleys and mountains. Therefore, enriching oneself with the prerequisites, knowledge and wisdom is the response to all questions and challenges one encounters while striving to meet ends need.
Below are some strategic steps and ideologies to guide your thoughts and conducts in attempts to live up to expectations.
1. You could achieve more than you do in your not well-enough paid job because they lack “leverage” with their work.
2. It is pertinent to note that distraction is the ultimate destroyer of success and prosperity. It stunts, drains your brain, derail you.
3. You must not take advice from people who are not where you want to be in life. People’s point of view is based on their experiences or knowledge. Someone who does not know your destination cannot give you direction.
4. You are the author and owner of your challenges. No one is coming to save your problems. Your life’s 100% your responsibility. Earlier you take responsibility the better.
5. You don’t need 100 self-help books, all you need is action and self discipline. There’s nothing as good as self control. Discipline yourself. Take drastic actions that may cause you pain today and give you joy tomorrow.
6. Unless you went to higher institution to learn a specific skill (i.e doctor, engineer, lawyer), you can make more money in the next 90 days just learning simple sales.
7. In this world, you are on your own. No one cares about you. So stop being shy, go out and create your chances. No one will do your work for you. You belong to yourself.
8. If you find someone smarter than you, work with them, don’t compete. Working with a person smarter than you is a privilege that will better you.
9. Smoking has no benefit in your life. This habit will only slow your thinking and lower your focus. Remember the popular advert: Smokers are liable to die young.
10. Comfort is the worst addiction and cheap ticket to depression. You must come out from your comfort zone if truly you want to get things done at the right time.
11. Don’t tell people more than they need to know, respect your privacy. You must avoid that which is described as, ‘see finish’. People should not know everything about you.
12. Avoid alcohol at all cost. Nothing worse than losing your senses and acting a fool. Alcohol has more disadvantages than advantages.
13. Keep your standards high and don’t settle for something because it’s available. You must keep pushing.
14. The family you create is more important than the family you come from. Your personal item is different from public property. Establish and protect your own.
15. Train yourself to take nothing personally to save yourself from 99.99% of mental problems. Deliberations at public domains like conference, village square, meetings and so on should be seen as public affairs, not personal, and should be treated as such.
