Hello guys . Hope so all of you are good . Today i have come up with new and something interesting.
There are some rules in life which should be followed by everyone. If we do so we can be successful. I may say that everyone knows about these but they don't act on it .
The 1st question which arise in our minds is ;
What is life? What are you supposed to do? It’s not like babies are shipped with manuals that teach them to be awesome human beings. I asked myself: What are things that people talk about, but they never do?
Here’s what I came up with until now.
1-No Strain , No Gain
We often talk about doing all kinds of crazy shit. Climb mountains, run marathons, skydive, start businesses, travel the world, write books, record albums, make movies, the list is endless.
The cliché is 100% true: No strain, no gain. If you don’t strain your muscles, they get weak. If you don’t strain your brain, your cognitive ability will decline. If you don’t test your character, you become spineless.
“If you rest, you rust.” — Helen Hayes
2- Avoid Negativity At All Cost
everywhere you look, there’s negativity. In fact, people are inherently negative. That’s how we’re hardwired.
That’s why you see so much complaining, lying, blaming, backstabbing, jealousy, bullying, in the world.
The problem with us, humans, is that we always see the good in people.
“He means well.”
“She’ll turn around.”
“He didn’t mean to hurt me.”
“Things will change.”
You know that you can’t change people, right? So why try? People only change when THEY decide to change.
It’s best to avoid negativity. At all costs
3- Time Is More Valuable Than Money
Do you ever stop and think about how much time you have left on this earth? Let’s say you get to live to 80 years. Just do the math. It’s not that long if you keep wasting your time.
Be more selective with your time. Don’t squander it as you can always get it back. Sure, you can always earn back the money that you’ve spent, but you can never earn back time.
Once you spend time, it’s lost forever
4- Create Your Own Path
We look at others and view them as examples. Fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, friends, bosses, mentors, authors, entrepreneurs, artists
But here’s the catch: You’re not all those people. You are you.
That means one simple thing: Get off the beaten path and create your own.
“Men almost always walk in paths beaten by others and act by imitation.” — Niccolò Machiavelli
5 - Life Moves In One Direction
You can live in three different time dimensions in your head.
i- The past
ii- The future
iii- The present
If you live in the past, you’re stuck in the “why” mode. That means you always think about why things happened. That’s a recipe for unhappiness.
If you live in the future, you live in the “what if” mode. That state of mind causes anxiety about everything that MIGHT happen in the future. Again, that’s a recipe for living a timid life.
You know that damned well. You also know that there’s only one ACTUAL time dimension; the present.......
I can’t guarantee a good life if you follow all principles. But when you follow these principles, you have more respect for the subtlety of life.
Because these principles have one goal: Get the most out of life. And that’s the only point there is.
Great
