Guaranteed Path To Failure

Success has no guaranteed formula, but one reliable path to failure is trying to please everyone.

Staying true to ourselves will always mean disappointing someone—or many people. Learning to accept this is a difficult but worthwhile journey.

Compassion Over Cynicism

Our invisible beliefs shape how we treat others - especially whether we see people as inherently good or self-serving.

I choose not to let history define a person's future, opting instead for compassion. I see people through the lens of their potential, not just their past.

Sure, this outlook has burned me, but the reward of witnessing positive change outweighs the risks. Believing in someone's potential brings peace of mind and makes the world a slightly better place.

Simple Happiness Exercise

Shift your focus to someone else and sincerely wish them happiness. Really feel it.

- 10 points if you simply think the thought.

- 1,000 points if you genuinely feel the emotion.

- 1,000,000 points if the person is someone you're not fond of (or vice versa).

Cash in your points for a better mental state and improved quality of life. While I have no scientific proof, I bet it extends your life as well.
