Life’s Top 10 Truths

If you want to explore the high-seas or just build your own ship... go for it!

If you want to explore the high-seas or just build your own ship... go for it!

I may be 32 but I already feel like I have lived the lives of several people, each year is so different and when looking back, it’s astonishing how much I have yet to learn and do! So, here are the top 10 truths that life has taught me so far.

10. I am NOT important

I am happy I discovered this one early, I don’t take myself seriously at all but I do take what I do in it very much so. I can’t think of a time where I have ever put myself ahead or above anybody else. If our entire Milky Way Galaxy were to blow-up tomorrow, the universe, with still trillions upon trillions of others to chose from, wouldn’t even blink an eye. We are insignificant and unimportant so I “try” not to let my ego out unless it can help or improve something.

9. Some people hate success

As soon as you achieve something in life, by no fault of your own, some people will automatically hate you. I still don’t understand the mechanism behind it nor why humans are so prone to it but I guess it’s one step up from indifference, which is a good thing I think. Some people just cannot accept that other people may have more life than them, just accept it and move-on.

8. Life is too short to be bored

I’ve never been bored in my life, as soon as something becomes un-interesting, I jump into something else, we already live far too short a lifespan considering all the opportunities to learn and explore that are around us, don’t waste a second of it “not knowing what to do”.

7. Embrace Chaos

Fighting chaos is simply impossible, it’s the natural state of matter and hence, our lives. Learn to grow and prosper when things go to shit and you will quickly gain the wit and strength required to overcome even the most powerful of setbacks.

6. Health is #1

Constantly improve your health, there is no excuse for letting it go nor taking it for advantage. Don’t smoke, take drugs or do unhealthy things as, at the end of the day, it will come back and hit you big time, especially as you age.

5. Become your own role model

Set yourself as an example of what IS possible and what CAN be done with life before you attempt to do this for others. I would never follow health advice from a chain smoking obese doctor no matter how smart they were, I hope you wouldn’t either.

4. NEVER stop learning

There is always something new to learn, a new place to explore or a new relationship to enter in, take advantage of these opportunities, never allow your mind (or body) to stagnate!

3. Become your own boss

Take control over your life, every aspect of it, and don’t let others try to influence you into directions that you don’t find comfortable. You are YOU and nobody else should have any power over what or how you become as a person. Follow your nature, your passions and your dreams.

2. Passion is the zest of life!

If you haven’t found your passion(s) in life, you need to keep searching hard and wide. Life is about living and this is very difficult if you don’t know what you life or have something to wake-up to in the morning.

1. Dreams can become reality

If you focus your energies, nothing in this world is impossible, NOTHING! There is no reason at all why you, regardless of where or how you have come into being, cannot achieve a legendary life. You are unique and special… just like every other organisms on this planet and it’s up to you to make something of it. Dreams shouldn’t be considered anything but a possibility.

The Bottom Line

If you want it, go for it, if you don’t, no big deal… move onto something else!
