If I had a “TIME MACHINE” to travel 10 years in the past — I Would…
I was a shy distracted 16-year-old. I thought I had the world figured out.
But I didn’t.
Binged watched shows non-stop.
Surfed the web aimlessly.
Read BS self-help.
Repeat.
If I could do it all over again, here are 10 things I would do…
#1: Find a wolf-pack to howl with.
Ideally, people who are a few steps ahead of you.
It’s easier to buy and live in a penthouse when everyone around you has a palace.
#2: Cut off every negative person in your life.
Scroll through your Whatsapp.
Notice how certain people make you feel.
Cut them loose.
#3. Allocate a % of every dime you make to the following channels:
A. Upskilling Account
B. Travel/Entertainment Account
C. Investment Account
#4: Set a clear intention and practice gratitude.
You’ll never receive more if you don’t appreciate what you already have.
Use all your senses to visualize yourself living your desired life.
#5: Hack your mind to embrace the producer mindset instead of the consumer mindset.
Production Rate: 80%
Consumption Rate: 20%
#6: Don’t become a self-help junkie.
Your brain has this idea of doing something productive while reading.
But it’s never worth it until there’s an action.
Any high-quality skill is learned in the trenches.
Not inside a book.
#7. Make a list of everything that scares the shit out of you.
Conquer each.
#8: Make a list of 30 people you aspire to become like.
Write to them.
Ask to intern under them for FREE.
Someone will definitely respond.
#9: Work out mentally and physically.
Mental workout- Meditation will lead your mind to undiscovered parts of yourself.
Physical workout- Taking care of your health should always be a priority. No amount of money can give you that.
#10: Live your days fast and hard.
And mess up as many times as you can before you turn 25, 35, 40, 75, 90, and die. Making mistakes is a privilege reserved for the bold. Most people slack and play it safe. Don’t be like them.
