7 Lies You Must Unlearn Today:
1. Success looks a certain way
You run your life; you define success.
Success takes many forms and looks different from person to person.
I say, if you're positively impacting the world, that's success.
2. Happiness is about getting what you want
People look for happiness in two main ways:
Accumulate as much as possible
Appreciating as much as possible
Things will never bring you happiness; find joy in the moment.
3. You are entitled to certain things
You were born with nothing, and you'll be buried with nothing.
In between birth and burial, you are entitled to nothing.
Read that again
The world owes you nothing just for existing.
Nobody cares; Work Harder.
4. Courage means not being afraid
Courage is the ability to do something that frightens you.
When you're afraid to start a business but do it anyway.
When you're scared of public speaking but do it anyway.
When you're afraid to admit your mistake, but you do it anyway.
5. You will feel comfortable when the time is right
This is a lie.
The truth is, when you feel a bit nervous and uncomfortable, you're doing it right.
It means you're testing yourself and growing.
6. A busy day is a productive day
Work smarter, not harder
Many people say it; few do it.
Plan the important things and attack.
Don't waste your life being busy.
7. It's already too late
Nothing is too late until the breath leaves your lungs.
Whether you are 18 or 65, you have the chance to start over.
Make the decision and don't look back.
It's never too late.
Summary:
1. Success looks a certain way
2. Happiness is about getting what you want
3. You are entitled to certain things
4. Courage means not being afraid
5. You will feel comfortable when the time is right
6. A busy day is a productive day
7. It's already too late
