Your life is too short to waste it trying to be someone you’re not. Hard work is overrated. You can work the least and come out on top with good decision-making and leverage. Apply leverage through labor, capital, media, or code.

Aspiring entrepreneurs have to manage 4 things to stay sane… — Desire To Succeed — Content Consumption — Action — Results. Those who spend most of their time wanting and consuming will go crazy. Bringing your focus towards action and small wins will make you much happier.

Have you ever watched your children’s activities? We have this balance hardwired in. Children instinctively know to take a break at 90 minutes and do something else. It’s incredible.

Consistency is better than intensity. Timing is just a by-product and a question of when to turn-it on, for your life is too short to waste it reading or listening to things that are uninspiring.

It’s not about how much sleep you get, it’s about what you do when you’re awake, for your life is too short to waste it having imaginary arguments.

This is why 9–5 isn’t efficient, some companies are starting to change that though, for your life is too short to waste it with negative thinking.

Society conditioned me to believe that money is real & that it was a good idea to have lots in the bank (savings). But MONEY IS NOT REAL. Money is created by the state. Money loses its value through the state policy of inflation. Therefore don’t keep your wealth in cash form.

This from Steve Jobs: “You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backward”, for your life is too short to waste it trying to be “successful”.

Thoughts = reality. The more you think about something (good or bad) the more your reality reflects what you think, for your life is too short to waste it doing work that doesn’t satisfy your soul.

Lastly, remember laziness and mediocrity still thrive — near enough is good enough, very few are actually taking any concentrated action to do something with their lives .

Autopilot and apathy still reign supreme, for your life is too short to waste it trying to be someone you’re not. Opportunity cost. You can do anything but you can’t do everything.

“At the end of day there is no easy route” in life.
