21 YEARS OF LIFE . . 21 LESSONS I’VE LEARNT

work_life

1. Sometimes there’s no use trying to understand the WHY of something. You just have to let shit go.

2. Nobody has it all figured out. We’re just hoping for the best.

3. You can “have it all” in life, simply by changing how you think.

4. You can’t learn a whole lifetime of knowledge on a certain topic in a day.

5. We don’t spend enough time nearly enough time with ourselves thinking about NOTHING.

6. Every person you meet is better than you at something.

7. If you aren’t happy being single, you won’t be happy in a relationship.

8. As human beings, we seriously think way too much.

9. Patience is key. Patience is ALSO a pain in my ass.

10. We all experience the same emotions, the same circumstances, at one stage of our lives. We may think we’re alone in the world, but we’re closer than we think.

11. Talent comes naturally . . but talent alone won’t get you anywhere. SKILL comes with HOURS and HOURS of beating on your craft.

12. You can’t please everybody. In fact, majority of the time, you’re pissing someone off.

13. Every problem you have is YOUR responsibility, it doesn’t matter who caused it.

14. You can’t PUSH for something to happen . . it will only take longer . . you need to focus on what you CAN control & things will eventually sort out.

15. Whenever you hate something, it hates you back: people, situations, EVERYTHING.

16. A smile goes a LONG way. So if all else fails, SMILE.

17. Putting something off makes it THAT much harder . . no matter how small.

18. There is ALWAYS somebody out there that has it worse off than you do.

19. Relying on other people or external circumstances to make you happy never works in the long term.

20. Everyone just wants to feel loved and appreciated at the end of the day.

21. People are not lazy. They just don’t have goals that DRIVE them . . and INSPIRE them.

Could have gone on FOREVER . . .

What has life taught you ??
