There is a time for everything now is for work

It doesn’t matter if you feel like it or not you do and then you feel like it

50. MASTERING THE WRONG THINGS & BLUE EYESHADOW NUMB-NUTS

(The how and why of self-reliance )

Do it by yourself, if you are the master, or delegate to masters

How you get things done?

Mastery over ourselves and the environment

What do you want to master?

First rule:

Master the right things

Why it is like it is now?

Mastering the wrong things is a tragedy

Be stubborn about the goal but not the path

Keep experimenting till you get the goal accomplished (don’t be stubborn about the ways to get there)

Important know yourself

Experiment with what makes you happy (find the mix that works for you)

Mastering your life — the 4 pillars: health, wealth, love and happiness

Avoid blue eyeshadow — inexperience teachers and mentors

Trust less the ones that didn’t have much time in their craft

numb-nut — you keep on relying on inexperience people

you fool me once shame on you, if you fool me twice shame on me

it’s ok to give a second chance but don’t run the experiment too long when the signs are obvious

You can be a master only on few things (know yourself)
