When I was 25, there were tons of pieces of advice, some were funny (like what I put in my Quora answers) and some were more harsh. Now that I’m 30, I find myself sharing these same words, hoping to help share advice that can help people who want themselves to be stronger.
So here I wrote a post on what life lessons that I’ve learned in my 20s and want more people to know before they turn 25 or 30.
- A master has failed more times than beginner has even tried.
- Never tell your problems to everyone. 80% don’t care and the other 20% are glad you have that.
- If you’re not enjoying your work, you should either change your attitude, or change your job.
- Degree is just a paper. Real education is seen in behavior.
- If “Plan A” didn’t work, the alphabet has 25 more letters! Stay cool…
- Sit with winners, the conversation will be different. Date with the better, your life’s gonna change. I couldn’t agree more as I work for an elite dating app (download here) . It gives me the chance to meet the most successful people from all over the world. And this is what I’ve learned from them.
- Success doesn’t happen to you. It happens because of you.
- My mom once told me: “Sometimes your heart needs more time to accept what your mind already knows”… And I felt that.
- The greatest power in the world is our ability to take charge of our mind and focus it on, and direct it to where we want it to be and not get directed by the mind.
