Purpose and Meaning in Life

I will argue that growth is the purpose of your life. Just like a tree, plants or flowers, your actual “job” all day is to grow. And if you stop growing, you simply exist, in a continuing, diminishing state.

Stop Seeking Validation from Others

I create my own self-validation and you must as well. You have to know who you are, who you want to become, and what a successful life means to you. Stay true to that, and stop worrying about now many likes you get on your Instagram feed, or what others think about you. What they think about you is none of your business, only what you think about you.

Jumping to the Next Comfort Zone

If you asked me what separate the high level achievers from the average person I would say this: The achievers have no fear of getting out of their comfort zone. Their fear is staying in one.

The Prosperity in Pain

Yet it’s helpful to recognize that much of the pain you experience is self-imposed. And often it is the bitter-tasting medicine that you need to heal yourself.

Self-Imposed Poverty

The title above references self-imposed poverty, but it could also read self-imposed sickness, failure, or misery. Because preventing yourself from becoming wealthy, healthy, successful, or happy all arise from the same root cause.

Why You Love to Hate Rich People

On a singular level, we love to hate characters like Logan Roy and JR Ewing because then we can tell ourselves, “Obviously rich people are evil. I sure am glad I’m one of the noble, spiritual, good-hearted poor people.” Or as Peter Parker’s uncle tells him in the original Spiderman movie that started the franchise, “We may not be rich. But at least we’re honest.”

Money-Grubbing, Rich A$$holes

All you need to know to determine if a book, TV show, or movie is going to be a breakout hit, is to determine if it panders to a majority of people’s limiting beliefs.

Breaking News, Painted Donkeys, and Buddhist Monks with Attitude

From a prosperity standpoint, here’s the most important thing to remember: there are lots more countries not at war than at war, lots more people doing good things than bad things, and most zoos have a real zebra. But you’ll only be aware of all the great, positive and beneficial things happening around you if you seek them out and create channels where you’re exposed to them.
