What are some things nobody tells you about life?

 What are some things nobody tells you about life?


If you want to become rich don’t focus on the money. Focus on solving people’s problems.

Wealth is not proportional to the level of IQ you have. Wealth is proportional to your level of EQ.

Money is an illusion of what the world thinks you’re worth. Truth is that you’re worth more than you think if you can learn how to value your time.


The most valuable skill in the world is understanding the power of words. That’s why people who control the world use nothing but words.


People have this misconception that unless something is measured relative to another, it has no value. True value is an intrinsic substance that cannot be measured.

We’re all blessed with a brain and the capacity to think. However those who get ahead are the people who know how best to manipulate other people.


Love alone cannot put food on the table. Something else is needed and that is commitment.


Marriage is a contract where you willingly agree without coercion to surrender your personal privacy to another person.

Before plunging into a marriage, first sit down and draw a budget of whether you’ll be able to educate and feed several mouths up to university level.


Don’t get scared when the world throws trials, troubles and pressures at you. Grow a thick skin to overcome the pressures or whatever the world throws at you.


Don’t complain about what other people are not doing. Just get down to business and do it.

Sometimes people will avoid you for not speaking their language. Sometimes they’ll avoid you for being smarter. Sometimes they’ll avoid you for no apparent reason.

" FINDING YOUR PURPOSE "

 Remember: purpose is a decision. No one is born with a purpose. It's something we decide. Here's a question for you: What are you? I'm not talking about your job title. What's your life about? Answer that, and you will have your purpose. But most of us don't have the answer to that simple question. We tend to overcomplicate things. But it's actually very simple. Will Smith put it best when he was asked about this subject in an interview: "Just decide what it's going to be, who you're going to be, how you're going to do it." Decide. Go out. Do it. And don't look back. If you lack inspiration, and can't answer that question, you need more input. You can't expect to get output (purpose) without input. You don't know your purpose because you're not aware of it. That's all. Don't make things more complicated than they are. And don't try to force it to come out of you. Here are two ways to stimulate input: 1. Expo

" FIGHT THE ENEMY WITHIN "

 "Make sure your worst enemy doesn't live between your own two ears." -Laird Hamilton Conquering fear is important, especially now. We live in an interconnected world where the social pressure to conform to the norm is practically demanded from us. Many talented people take their talents with them to the grave because they are afraid to follow their dreams. One of the main reasons is because of what we have learned from other people. From a young age, we are taught to be normal and follow the conventional circle of life: not to stand out, get an education, a safe job, get married and buy a house. We believe that it is so important to follow this path, that we are terrified to do something else. For example, if you do not like your job, you live with constant stress. That impacts your mood, ambition, and above all, your health. Stress has severe consequences for our body. Most of us spend our lives running from our fears. Conquering fear is liberating, and this new freedom

Today, I experienced something new and profound.

 Today, I experienced something new and profound. There's a temple under construction for the past three months, and work is still ongoing. When I visited today, I saw an old man and his grandson ringing the temple bell. Interestingly, there was no statue, no painted stone, or any sign that indicated the presence of a deity. Anyone visiting might be confused and wonder if there was ever a temple there. Yet, the old man and his grandson believed deeply that God was present and they prayed with devotion. This taught me an important lesson: "When I see a temple, I greet it with the belief that God is there." But observing these people praying in the absence of a physical deity made me realize that God resides within us. We see God because we carry Him in our hearts. A temple is a place where we reflect the divinity within us. God lives inside us first, and then we place Him in the temple stones. We wish for things from the God within us, not the one carved in stone. The ston
