The Wisest Things You Need to Learn in Life.
1. When you have pure intentions, you don’t lose anyone. Instead, people lose you.
2. In a fight, who throws the first punch does not matter, what matters is who falls down first. Challenges of life can throw punches on you first, but make sure you overcome them and move on.
3. Do not waste your time trying to change someone who doesn’t see an issue in their actions.
4. Ensure you win in silence. Let them think you are losing and then shock them with the results.
5. You have to take a step forward to move ahead. If you don’t take that step, you will remain where you are.
6. If you don’t ask, the answer will always be “no”. "If you don't go after what you want, you will never have it.
7. Money is essential to survive but remember it is paper with numbers on it which is created by us.
8. Anger is self-destructive. Anger is like holding a hot coal with the intention to throw it at someone, but you are the ones who gets burned.

18 Habits Of Rich Traders:
Trading in the stock market is like being in a Monopoly game. If there are ten people playing, one person is likely to take everyone else’s money.
Trading functions much the same way, with 10% of traders becoming profitable, while the other 90% lose or break even.
After studying successful traders from the books by Michael Covel and Jack Schwager for many years, and achieving my own financial freedom from trading the stock market, I have compiled a list of what separates them and their followers from the 90% that come up short.
Trading Psychology
•New Traders are greedy and have unrealistic expectations. Rich Traders are realistic about their returns.
•New Traders make the wrong decisions due to stress. Rich Traders can manage stress.
•New Traders are impatient and look for constant action. Rich Traders are patient.
•New Traders trade because they are influenced by emotion. Good Traders use a trading plan.
•New Traders think they can stop learning. Rich Traders never stop learning about the market.
Risk Management
•New Traders act like gamblers. Rich Traders operate like a businessperson.
•New Traders bet the farm. Rich Traders carefully control trading size.
•For New Traders outsized profits are the #1 priority. Rich Traders know that managing risk is the #1 Priority.
•New Traders try to prove they are right. Rich Traders admit when they are wrong.
•New Traders give back profits by not having an exit strategy. Rich Traders lock in profits while they are there.
Trading Methodology
•New Traders give up. Rich Traders persevere until they are successful.
•New Traders hop from system to system when they lose. Rich Traders stick with a winning system even when it is losing.
•New Traders place trades based on opinions. Rich Traders place trades based on probabilities.
•New Traders try to predict. Rich Traders follow what the market is telling them.
•New Traders trade against the trend. Rich Traders follow the market trends.
•New Traders follow their emotions to their disadvantage. Rich Traders follow systems that give them an advantage.
•New Traders do not know when to cut losses or lock in gains. Rich Traders have an exit plan.
•New Traders cut profits short and let losses run. Rich Traders let profits run and cut losses short.
These 18 principles and many more are covered in my classic book: New Trader, Rich Trader.

9 Rules for Children from 12 Rules For Life by Jordan Peterson.
1) “Do not bite, kick or hit, except in self-defense.” And yes, if self-defense is required, bite, kick and/or hit. It’s okay for kids to defend themselves and to stand up to those who are threatening their safety. The first step is to avoid potentially dangerous situations/ people. If that doesn’t work then the second step is to stay calm (so that they can make better decisions) and clear (so they can’t get hit if they aren’t ready). Third step is to communicate with confidence and to tell the aggressor EXACTLY what they want—to STOP, to LEAVE THEM ALONE, to BACK OFF, etc. And finally if, after those steps are taken and the aggressor still advances maliciously towards them, they need to know it’s okay to defend themselves—regardless of where it’s taking place. Having some martial arts training is a good idea for situations like this.
) “Do not torture and bully other children, so you don’t end up in jail.” Bullying is repetitive and intentional wrong-doing towards another. This type of behavior escalates quickly and never leads to positive outcomes. Torturing and bullying others can have severe consequences and making it clear to our kids that repetitive and intentional wrong-doing is never tolerated is crucial. Don’t assume that this is understood. Many kids bully without even realizing they’re doing it. Ensure that your kids understand what it means to bully other children, the effects it can have, and communicate this rule to them clearly and with conviction.
3) “Eat in a civilized and thankful manner, so that people are happy to have you at their house, and pleased to feed you.” If kids are going to be civilized and thankful at other people’s houses, they need to act that way in their own house. Saying “please” and “thank you”, chewing with their mouth closed, cleaning up after themselves, not playing with food, etc. are good ones to consider. Make this practice into a daily habit—or at the very least, practice (and remind them about) how to act properly, daily—and everybody will be pleased to feed them.
4) “Learn to share, so other kids will play with you.” The act of sharing might be one of the easiest tools for your kids to use to make friends. When a kid chooses not to share, they are choosing to retain control, to deny compromise, and to turn away connection. This doesn’t necessarily mean that they have to share all of the time—but learning HOW to share is critically important in learning proper socialization skills, how to compromise with others, how to empathize with others, and other important skills that facilitate proper development and social integration.
5) “Pay attention when spoken to by adults, so they don’t hate you and might therefore deign to teach you something.” In a perfect world, kids would pay attention by looking at adults in the eyes, with perfect posture, attentive ears, and a steady stance—but this is hardly realistic. Kids are wild and experimental and short on attention spans. There ARE things that should always be enforced however—looking up from the screen when an adult is talking is a good one (yes, all games have a ‘pause’ function). Multi-tasking is a myth and just as we are incapable of doing it, our children are undoubtedly incapable as well. You can bet that if they’re choosing where to focus their attention when it’s between their parents and their video game, well, I’m sure you already know the answer to that one. Utilize that pause button. Make sure they respect the adults in their lives and the adults in their lives will be more inclined to teach them something that they will be thankful they had the chance to learn.
6) “Go to sleep properly, and peaceably, so that your parents can have a private life and not resent your existence.” Teaching children how to go to sleep properly and peaceably is a conversation in and of itself. And there are other sources that can outline how to do this properly better than I can. But the importance of this shouldn’t be understated.

Top 8 lessons learned from the book
-"Built To Last"
1. You don’t need a great idea to start a great company.
🔸Few of the visionary companies in the book begin with any specific idea.
🔸The success of visionary companies comes primarily from successful underlying processes and core values.
2. Don’t make “maximizing profit” your primary goal.
🔸Paradoxically, visionary companies make more money than the more purely profit-driven comparison companies.
3. Charismatic, visionary leaders are not required.
🔸Visionary companies benefit from strong leadership, but the book found the best leaders were more akin to architects building a company based on human ideals and values.
4. There is no “correct” set of core values for a visionary company.
🔸Similarly, two companies with opposite values can both be visionary and highly successful.
5. Visionary companies set Big, Hairy, Audacious Goals (BHAGs)
A good way to develop your BHAG is to look for the alignment in three areas:
1) What are you deeply passionate about?
2) Currently, what drives your actions and income?
3) What can you be the best in the world at?
6. Visionary companies almost religiously preserve their core ideology.
🔸It is the translation of intentions into concrete action and results that make the difference.
7. Visionary companies succeed mainly through experimentation.
🔸First, determine your core values and why you exist. Next, try a lot of stuff and see what works.
8. Visionary companies focus on beating themselves, not the competition.
🔸Any Lean practitioner knows that the goal of continuous improvement is perfection and never ends.
