📖 25 "Cheat-codes" to achieve Success in Life 1) If you want to flourish, you take care of the soil rather than the seed. Upgrade your environment, because your environment upgrades you. 2) A flower doesn't go after the bee. The flower flourishes, and then the bee will come. Stop chasing butterflies. Plant a garden (build) so they will come to you (results) 3) Stop hanging out with losers unless you want to be one yourself. Hanging out online included - The sources you choose to receive content from, are one very big reason for your future decisions and outcomes. Choose carefully what you fill your mind it, and what you spend your most valuable asset (time) on. Don't worry about following too many sources or having too many friends. Quality over Quantity. 4) Try to never be the smartest person in all rooms you're in. Be somewhere where you can consistently learn, and be somewhere where you can consistently teach - Teaching is learning twice and can build trustworthy networks. 5) Define one Big goal for your life. Make it explicit. It will serve as your north star. Write it down in detail on a piece of paper and look at it every once in a while to remind yourself why you're doing all of this. People who write down goals are much more likely to achieve them Vs who doesn't. 6) Once you know where you're going, stay in your lane and let the nay-sayers be. They'll try to distract you and discourage you, because deep inside they actually fear you achieve more than they ever did. Remember that you're not competing with them. You're competing with poverty and who you were yesterday. Seek progress rather than perfection. 7) The worst position to find yourself in: No money No time. Barely anyone on the planet is victim of both combined. The person who has time can always choose to trade it for money. Once you have money, you can begin choosing to trade it for time. Learn this arbitrage and you're sorted for life. 8) There are no shortcuts to any place worth going. Focus on doing what you do, and do it consistently better. It takes thousands of hours to master anything life-changing. 9) For as long as you live remember that the only free cheese is in the mousetrap. 10) Every day, do one thing that gets you closer to your big goal. Venture out into the unknown. Get out of your comfort zone. Remember, boats are safe in the harbor, but that's not what boats are for. 11) Do not quit. Everyone who won at life, simply did not give up. It might take a while, it might be hard, it might be scary at times, but as long as you keep putting one foot in front of the other, you will eventually get to a life most can only dream of. Hardships are life's way of seeing if you're ready to level up. 12) Never assume the answer is No before you ask. Let them be the ones to tell you No. More often than not you'll be surprised by how wrong you were to assume the worst. A "No" doesn't change your reality much. A "Yes" might do. Even if you get a "No", then you can ask what would've made them say "Yes". Their feedback will help you grow. You need the right mindset to understand the value on this. 13) Let them hate. Nobody throws stones at a tree that doesn't have ripe fruit on it. If you begin having haters, you're growing. 14) Stop expecting them to see what you see. Stop expecting them to act the way you would act. Stop expecting YOU from other people. They won't be able to see the world the way you see it. When you talk growth and achievements with people who don't want to grow, to them it sounds like bragging. They'll resent you from trying to move up from where they are, because your progress makes them realize that they are less in comparison. A man with no aspirations sees dreams as arrogance. 15) Others will only see the outcome, not the effort. "Overnight success" usually takes years to accomplish. 16) Stop chasing people. Yes, sex is fun, but making your dreams come true is the ultimate climax. You can't even imagine what it's like to wake up without the stress of having to survive/follow boss's rules. 17) The only real test of intelligence is if you actually get what you want out of life. Ask yourself: "If i'm so smart why am i not rich? Why have i been so many years selling my time for cheap money to make other people rich?" Smart people are able to figure these things out. Maybe you're just smarter than your inner circle and that makes you feel smart enough, but are you?...Self-reflect and you might find the answers to change your life moving forward. 18) Learn to use leverage (and this is not about futures...) Those who use the tools at their disposal outperform the rest. Most people's lives are cheap because they think investing in themselves is expensive. 19) Rise up early. The world is lazy and unmotivated. It's easy to compete with them if you're up before them. An extra hour awake is worth more when you're 30 than when you're 80. It pays off to cut on sleep when you're younger. 20) In life you have to choose one of two pains: The pain of Discipline, or the pain of Regret. 21) You feel bad because deep down you know you could be doing better. The gap between reality and expectations creates stress. Either bring your reality to the level of your expectations, or bring your expectations to the level of your reality. Make a choice. 22) People want you to do well in life, but not better than them. Pay attention to those who don't cheer when you win. They're always ready to give you "advice" or even laugh if you fail, because they never win. 23) You can get rich by taking large amounts of risk with low amounts of money. You stay rich by taking low amounts of risk with large amounts of money. 24) Cost of public failure is the ticket to the life you dream about. Most people live with the fear of public embarassment, so they settle for whatever society tells them to settle for. You don't need others to believe in you if you believe in yourself. You get to decide whether to be your greatest obstacle, or your biggest fan. 25) The world where you were born, no longer exists, so open up your mind and get ready for the future. Lastly, it's not the recipe that you're missing. You're smart enough to know what needs to be done, but you have to do it rather than thinking of doing it later. What you need is 6 months of focus, productive routine. In 3 years from now your life can be so much better if for the next 6 months you put in the work on your mindset and skills.

Who we hang around is who we become …. Who we run with determines the direction that we run.

- Pre Christmas Speech 🎅- This year apart wishing you a wonderful Christmas I also truly want to wish you something different and something I realized during this 2024: I wish you'll be able to overcome your fears. Fears represent one of the main obstacles in achieving our goals because they act as invisible brakes that limit our potential. The fear of failure, the fear of judgment, the fear of change, and even the fear of success..each of which holds us back from taking decisive actions or stepping out of our comfort zone. The fear of failure pushes us to avoid risks and procrastinate, fearing that a mistake could damage our image or future opportunities while the fear of being judged by others often leads us to refrain from fully expressing ourselves for fear of criticism or ridicule, thereby limiting our freedom to act. On the other hand, the fear of change paralyzes us in the face of the unknown, making us prefer stability even when it is not conducive to progress, and the fear of success, paradoxical as it may seem, can manifest as anxiety about the responsibilities or expectations that might arise from positive outcomes, unconsciously driving us to self-sabotage. Just an example, but have you ever been paralyzed by approaching a woman? You see a beautiful girl and you want to know her, but you can't because you are overwhelmed by fear. "What if she thinks I'm ugly? What If she's gonna reject me?" So you walk away, losing an opportunity that will likely end in a "what would happened if.." just because you're fearing something..but fearing what, actually? You don't even know what she thinks. Maybe she thinks you're attractive, maybe she wants to know you..you don't know what is happening inside her brain, you're just making assumptions driven by fear. Fire your shot, try and if you get a rejection IT'S ALL GOOD, up to the next. Who cares if they laugh at you..the next day they won't even remember that situation and they'll move on with their life. You need to embrace the idea that the world is presenting you a lot of opportunities every single day, but they won't materialize until you decide to risk. Risk is necessary to obtain something and trust me, most of the risks we don't want to take are actually not risks at all. I wish you to dominate your mind in 2025. I wish you abundance based on demolishing your fears. Learn, risk, fail, risk again, achieve, succeed.
