When times get hard, use your dreams as fuel to get recharged.

Most of your friends and family really don’t want you to be successful.

If you’re successful, it forces them to look at their own lives and wonder why they’re not successful.

Then they’ll start to resent you for being successful.

Set big goals for yourself and sacrifice everything that doesn’t align with them.

Friends and Partying can always happen later.

If you don’t sacrifice for your goals than your goals become the sacrifice

Insecure People:

- Judge and are jealous of others
- Afraid of change
- Blame others
- Make excuses

Confident People:

- Celebrate other people's success
- Willing to take risks
- Accept responsibility
- Admit mistakes

If you're arguing with someone who relies on emotion instead of logic...

You will never win, even if you're right.

You need to leave your comfort zone and live every day facing your worst nightmares to get what you want.


Here’s what you can do if fear of the unknown keeps you from doing what you need to do:

- Define the worst that could happen
- Hope for the best, and do it anyway.

The best way to create more time for important tasks is to make two lists:

1. a to-do list
2. a not-to-do list.

If you keep telling yourself "I have a short attention span"

Guess what will happen?

You will have a short attention span.

Stop telling yourself stupid stories.

You are the creator of your life and every time you don’t believe in your abilities and blame the circumstances, you give your power away.

To stand out you must stop fitting in.

Become an expert in some particular area.

Develop a gift in your life that people will pay you to perform it.

Not being able to relate to most people sounds like a bad thing, but it is not.

Most people achieve nothing significant in their entire life.

Why would you want to be able to relate to them?

Build the habit of challenging yourself.

Anything you are "bad" at is a potential skill to acquire.

Every day — you get two choices.

The choice between discomfort and monotony.

The choice between growth and mediocrity.

The choice between your dreams and comfort.

You either take the first route to go after our dreams — or medicate yourself with comfort at the price of living.

You think that everything that looks a bit difficult is something to run away from — it’s not.

It’s an opportunity for you to grow.

The discomfort is not there to break you but to burn you into the real you.

College degrees should have expiration dates to protect students from obsolete education.

Adversity introduces a person to himself.

You will never know your limits, capabilities and beliefs

If you are not faced with hardships of life.

The correct response to insults is to do nothing.

Say nothing. Do nothing.

They should mean nothing to you.

Reacting to an insult with anger suggests insecurity, no confidence or calmness.

Anger is a sign of weakness, not strength.

Losing motivation means you're losing touch with your vision. You're not grasping it as well as you did at the start. Such bottleneck points are necessary, they allow you to adjust and reconsider your choices and decisions. This adaptability allows you to deal with new given parameters that you couldn't have foreseen until you start following your initial plan.

I often talk about the importance of having a plan, but what I often forget to mention is that your plan is there to be adjusted and questioned. Being open to change allows you to not limit yourself as more opportunities multiply before you. It allows you to limit what you're missing out on while your plan helps you filter what will simply waste your time.

But there is a very thin line to walk. Where you seize the adequate opportunities without straying away from your main goals. This is why you must take into consideration these low moments where doubts increase and the end goal gets blurry.

As I've said before, you don't have to prepare for them. You'd ruin the joy of solving out unpredictable problems. But at the same time, you should make sure to make those moments count. To help you reassess and learn, so that you reduce the likelihood of the same problems occurring again.

In short, you need to have a plan and be ready to adapt to it. Give yourself a north star and keep figuring it out on the way.

Maintaining this important balance is how you keep learning while you're taking action towards your goals. Or else, you'll miss out on important lessons and risk never getting where you wanted to get in the first place.

There are two kinds of men:

One, who make right now their “day one”

The other, who keep waiting for the “one day”

The latter kind are rarely ever successful.

Do you eat for nutrition or pleasure?

If it’s the latter, you will always end up overeating junk.


Change your perspective on food.

It’s about fuel not taste.
