//THREAD//
These lessons are trite.

These lessons are my own.

These lessons have profanity.

These lessons were not edited.

These lessons were made in flow.

Read with your own discernment.

Read with an open mind.

Read carefully.

Enjoy!

Thank you for being here.

I appreciate you.
1/ STOP TAKING LIFE SO SERIOUSLY

I get it.

You want to make it.

You want to create a wonderful life.

You want to give back.

But calm the fuck down.

Find some inner peace.

It's ok to have some fun!

You don't need to be ultra-productive every minute of your life.
2/ LEAD BY EXAMPLE

If you want someone to change, be that change.

Take care of your body and they will take care of theirs.

Learn how to make more money and they will want to learn how.

If you want someone to listen, be someone worth listening to.

You get it.
3/ TELL THE FUCKING TRUTH. ALWAYS.

It's not worth it to lie.

Your subconscious mind will punish you for it.

It will come back to haunt you in the future.

Be honest.

Even if it hurts others.

Even if it feels horrible.

People respect the honest guy in the group.
4/ BELIEVE IN YOURSELF

Believe that you are worthy of everything you want.

You have to believe if you want money.

You have to believe that you deserve it.

You have to believe that it’s unlimited.

You have to believe that life will work itself out in your favor.
5/ APOLOGIZE FOR BEING A DICK

You always know when you are being a dick.

Don’t be the “I’m just telling the truth” person.

You’re being a dick. Own it.

Apologize to who you hurt.

Unless you're a psychopath who loves to hurt others.
6/ MAKE EXECUTION YOUR NEW FAVORITE WORD

Don't the mental masturbator.

You know, the one who has a ton of ideas and never acts.

If you think of something

Don't wait around.

Time is ticking.

Make it come to life.

Make that shit happen.
7/ GET YOUR FINANCES IN ORDER

The worst thing you can do is avoid your finances.

Know ALL of your numbers.

Don't like numbers? Hire someone who does.

You can't get rich if you don't know how much you spend.

Make it a priority to get super clear about your money.
8/ FOLLOW YOUR OBSESSIONS

There are probably things that pop up in your dreams.

They wake you up because you can't shut your mind off from them.

Don't ignore these things.

Take advantage of them.

Write them out.

Discover why they are there.

Then do the next right thing.
9/ BE GOOD

Be a good friend.

Be a good lover.

Be a good citizen.

Be a good CEO.

Be a good parent.

Be a good leader.

Be a good student.

Be a good mentor.

Be a good coach.

Be a good mentee.
10/ FOLLOW YOUR OWN ADVICE

Most of us are REALLY good at giving advice.

But when it comes to ourselves, we suck ass at it.

Don't be this person.

Do what you would tell others to do.

Treat yourself like your own client.

More importantly, listen to yourself.
11/ TRY EVERYTHING

Most of the time, people are boring because they don't do enough.

Make your life exciting to talk about.

Try different foods.

Try different hobbies.

Try different professions.

Try different ways of living.

You aren't here to lead a boring life. Do it all
12/ ALWAYS MOLD SOMEONE UNDER YOU

In your business and in your personal life, mentor someone.

Teach them what you wish you knew.

Help them excel faster than you did.

Give them what they need to succeed.

It will only make your life better in the long run.
13/ WHAT WOULD YOU DRIVE THROUGH A BLIZZARD FOR?

Figure out what is important to you.

If it was blizzarding outside and there was no other option

What would you risk your life to do?

Who would you risk your life to see?

Get clear on these things.

Then hold them tight.
14/ DO THE BASICS EVERY SINGLE DAY

Kobe Bryant was one of the GOAT because he practiced the basics every day.

How do you do this in life and business?

Meditate.

Journal.

Brush your teeth.

Make your bed.

Be polite.

Call a loved one.

Drink water.

Stretch.

Little things.
15/ PERSPECTIVE POSITIONING

This is a term for limiting who you take advice from.

If you listen to too many people then your perspective becomes jaded.

Listen to yourself.
Listen to your significant other.
Listen to your family.

That's it

You know everything you need to know
16/ YOU ARE NOT AS SMART AS YOU THINK

We have all fallen victim to thinking we are right.

If you have to prove you are right, you are wrong.

There is always someone smarter than you.

And if you are smarter, don't flaunt it.

Teach.

Don't let your ego tell you you're special.
17/ ELIMINATE "THE BOX"

The "box"

When people keep comparing you to the past version of yourself.

You do NOT have to fall back into that person.

Especially not to fit in or please others.

Don't get stuck in your own "box" and don't put others in one either.
18/ DOCUMENT THE HAPPIEST TIMES OF YOUR LIFE

Keep a record of the times when you FELT the most joy.

Remember where you were.

Remember what you were thinking.

Remember who was there.

Remember what you were feeling.

These will be important reminders when you are at a low.
19/ NEVER STOP WRITING

Writing is one of the most powerful tools at your disposal.

Your words get imprinted into your mind.

Document your journey.

Document your growth.

Give yourself something to look back on.

Give others a peek into your mind.

It will only benefit you.
20/ TAKE CARE OF YOUR BODY

This is no secret, but it needs to be said.

Exercise.

Stretch.

Mobilize.

Eat healthy.

Drink water.

Get good sleep.

Be the 60 year old that can keep up with all of the 20 year olds.

You will enjoy life a whole lot more.
21/ GIVE WITH ZERO EXPECTATION OF RECEIVING

This may be the most important lesson.

It's very easy to give something and feel like you are owed something in return.

Give and move on.

Watch it come back full circle later.

You might even get more than you gave or expected.
22/ DO NOT LIMIT YOUR POTENTIAL

Remove the word "can't" from your vocabulary RIGHT NOW.

You can do anything you want.

Don't think you can complete a triathlon?

Yes, you can.

If you limit your physical capability

You are probably limiting your financial capability as well.
23/ STICK TO YOUR PERSONAL PRINCIPLES

Do what you believe to be right based on the information in your brain.

Anything less is betraying your own trust and nothing matters more than that.

Don't give them to a world that doesn't actually give a shit beyond how it affects them.
24/ DREAM!!!

If you don't know exactly what you want in life

You haven't spent enough time dreaming.

Make a list of your personal & professional dreams.

Everything you desire.

Then plaster those dreams everywhere.

Watch them come true.

Only if you follow #4 though.
25/ RELEASE YOUR PAST TRAUMA

This is crucial.

Trauma only holds you back.

Have tough conversations with yourself and others.

Release all resentment.

Release all pain.

Release all past judgment.

This is how you find true freedom.

This is how you make #24 a reality.
