Five Short Rules Of Life Which Will Enable You To Achieve Everything You Want
Why are you not getting out of life what you expect?
Life is strange when you dissect it.
How you live life and which value system you live your life by often differ a lot from one to another. How you set up your ground rules and how well you live by them reflects your being, presence, your outcome, friends or acquaintances, job level, and overall life quality.
Rules, either you’re a fan or not. Do you like to follow all the rules?
Life is a game! Play with the tools the gods gave us.
“You have to learn the rules of the game. And then you have to play better than anyone else.”
-Albert Einstein-
#1 Love
For most of my life, I had the sequence of the top two rules mixed up. Don’t make that same mistake! When you are younger, your mind renders things differently, perhaps because your hormonal state often fluctuates or changes.
Dedicate your everything to love!
Love unlocks a great diverse power.
Love empowers you with resilience against every vulnerable threat that’s out there.
Love magnifies the qualities you already possess. It’s the gem that makes you exceed your natural self.
Love goes different ways; not only your partner or kids grow from the love you provide them. You’ll need to love what you do in life to do what’s needed for a longer time.
“If there is no love, what then?”
-Leonardo Da Vinci-
#2 Work ethic
A set of values centered on the importance of doing work and reflected especially in a desire or determination to work hard.
As mentioned before, I had this priority set above love for way too long. Don’t get me wrong; you need a work ethic to succeed in life.
“If your focus is solely on hard work ethic to make money, you’ll miss out on important things in life.”
Mix it up so you’ll put yourself up to think more about what you want or need to do. Thinking in that sense can be understood as a form of work ethic.
In my system, this was programmed only possible of being achieved by performing hard physical labor. In a sense, this isn’t a bad thing per se; still, only working your ass to death will not get you where you want.
Surely physical labor jobs have advantages, especially these days. People will cry for who can work with their hands in the short future; let stand if you can combine physical work ethic with specialized theoretical knowledge. A belief in work as a moral good
“Your work will fill a great part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. as with all heart matters, you’ll know when you found it.”
-Steve Jobs-
#3 Prioritize Sleep
How is your sleep?
Do whatever you can to make this great. From this rule, the rest will shine. Your sleep is the foundation of everything.
Do you want to improve your immune system?
Want to improve your emotional state?
Want to learn better?
Want to perform better in your sport?
Want to shine at work?
There is no way around it; this rule will make you relentless. It will make you limitless.
“I Prioritize sleep.”
-Jefferey P. Bezos-
#4 Dare to fail
You have to fail to step forward and dare attempt something that hasn’t been done before. Failure exposes a path that isn’t working; by winning, they remain hidden. Failing makes you rethink and line out other neural connections.
There is only one rule to benefit from failure: you need to retry to succeed.
Dare to fail will unlock the door throughout your life. Become one with failure, embrace it, and learn to like it. Think about what the aftermath of failure has to offer, and don’t be afraid to reattempt!
“There is no losing, only learning. There is no failure, only opportunities. There are no problems, only solutions. Failure is the mother of all success!”
-Franco Columbu-
#5 Learn how money works
This is a gem. If you don’t like being busy with money, then study it first; it will enable you from neglecting it later on.
Do you understand money?
I didn’t. When I grew up, I took basic money habits from my parents and the people around me, as most of us do. I never stood still that there was more to it; besides that, in early school, this isn’t even mentioned. Strange thing for something that possesses you for the rest of your life.
Do you like to be busy with money?
I wouldn’t say I like it. And this is exactly why you must manage good money skills.
“If you are born poor, it’s not your mistake, but it’s your own mistake if you die poor!”
-Bill Gates-
How do you learn it?
You don’t need to become a billionaire. So, doing what they do will often seem impossible. Therefore start by checking your vicinity. Copy money management methods of people who are doing well financially. There are a few easy-to-apply ground rules attached to this, Just to name a few:
- Never lose money (If you manage to do this for a considerable period throughout your life, the compound effect will be enormous)
- If you buy things, make sure they are durable
- Never spend more than you earn
- Invest in knowledge
- Make sure you have a few income streams
- Put work into making an enjoyable semi-passive stream (Semi. Because passive is an illusion, great things always require a certain amount of effort)
Being wealthy has more to do with being able to do whatever you want than having too much money to handle.
Money doesn’t make you that happy, but you need to know how it works to be able to release the stress it causes. I wish I had learned this earlier.
Studying what the best in the world say about money and copying what they do might not be interesting for you when your budget is low, but listening to how they handle or think about money helps a lot.
