Life is a journey filled with lessons, some more impactful than others. Here, we delve into seven profound life lessons that, once learned, should never be forgotten. These insights can serve as guiding lights, illuminating our path towards personal growth and fulfillment.
Life Lesson #1: Kill the lies
Spend a minute to identify at least one thing in your life that is not necessary and kill that today.
- Identify something specific that you will be better off without, where you can take a concrete step today – it does not matter how small it is.
- If you kill something, it should be dead.
Break the Status Quo
Look at life in terms of what can be changed and do something about it
- At least once a month, every full moon day, consciously look at this and identify one small thing about yourself that you want to change
- These small things will change your life and set you apart
There is intelligence in humility
An intelligent person knows how foolish they are. A fool does not. Noticing the stupidity of who you are is great intelligence.
- When this is your level of intelligence and perception, how should you walk in the world? Gently, with a little humility, respect, and love for everything around you.
Remember you are mortal
You are mortal and it is ticking away.
- No time for frustration, depression, anxiety, anger or for any unpleasantness in this life. Celebrate and enjoy every moment of your life because life does not wait for you even for a moment.
There is no good and bad
Your inner world should only be a reflection of what is around you
- If you see something other than what is there, it means you are contaminating the world with your opinions and prejudices
- Creation is made so that you see it the way it is, not to make it differently
- You desperately try to avoid what you consider as bad
Choose to live intelligently
You can create a loving world in every single activity that you do in your life.
- If you live your life constantly focused on what you want, it will unquestionably happen in your immediate surroundings, and it will also begin to happen in the larger surroundings.
Life Lesson #5: Determine the Quality of Your Life
Our ability to live joyfully here does not depend on the size of the house we live in or the car that we drive.
- These things make your life comfortable and convenient but the essential quality of your life is how you are within yourself right now.
