Tips and Takeaways:

  • Get Out of the Rat Race
    • "The rat race is like being in a never ending cycle where you're constantly chasing things like money, promotions, or material possessions, but despite all your hard work it feels like you're running on a wheel without making real progress or finding real happiness"

  • Try Things
    • "Whenever you just have the slight inkling or curiosity about something, actually explore that"
    • Shorten the time elapse between the idea and the action.

  • Surround Yourself with People Who Have Similar Goals
  • The World does not Owe You Anything
    • Always make it clear what value you provide to the other party.
    • If you are asking someone for something, be incredibly respectful of their time. Make sure that you show up responsibility and provide them with fulfillment for the help they're offering you.

  • Actively Brand Yourself
    • This gives yourself a strong idea of who you are and what you want to do.

  • Don't be Afraid of Being the Dumbest Person in the Room
    • Imposter syndrome is a sign that you're growing and stepping out of your comfort zone.
    • "Learn how to hold your weight"

  • View Everything as Something that Serves You
    • Your mindset and worldview are essential to your outcomes. Everything in life serves you in some way. If you are constantly focused on the negative outcomes of a given situation, that is the only way it will serve you. If you flip your mindset and look at the positives, then it can serve you in a positive way instead.
