1) You're going to die and you have no idea when...
Stop pretending that you're invincible. Acknowledge the fact of your own mortality, and then start structuring your life in a more meaningful way.
2) Your material wealth won't make you a better or happier person...
Even if you're one of the lucky ones who achieves his or her materialistic dreams, money only amplifies that which was already present.
3) Your obsession with finding happiness is what prevents its attainment...
Happiness is always present in your life--it's just a matter of connecting to it and allowing it to flow through you that's challenging.
4) Embrace your emotions...
Stop running from your fears, anxieties, and pains. Admit that you are flawed and you feel things you don’t want to feel, and then feel them. The sooner you do, the sooner you can move on.
5) You can't make everyone happy, and if you try, you'll lose yourself...
Stop trying to please, and start respecting your values, principles, and autonomy.
6) Your achievements and successes won't matter on your deathbed...
When your time has come to transition from this reality, you won't be thinking about that raise; you'll be thinking about the relationships you've made.so start acting accordingly.
7) Everyone around you will die someday...
The one thing that is absolutely 100% certain in life, is death. Don’t make your life about grieving over others and/or worrying about the day they’ll die. Death is a part of life/live life while you still have it.
8) Nobody cares how difficult your life is, and you are the author of your life's story...
Stop looking for people to give you sympathy, validation or approval and start creating the life story you want to read.
9) Investing in yourself isn't selfish. It's the most worthwhile thing you can do...
You have to put on your own gas mask first to save the person sitting right next to you.
10) Time is your most valuable asset--you need to prioritize how you spend it... You have the power and responsibility to decide what you do with the time you have, so choose wisely.
