Life is tough and if you are a
snowflake then get ready to burst your bubble. Here are 6 harsh truths
that are actually true.
1. Everyone
you love is going to die. You just don’t know when.
2. We
give our lives meaning. If you feel like life is meaningless. That is your
fault.
3. Life
is a game. Find the games that you want to play. Learn the rules and find the
way to be successful at the game that you have selected.
4. Everything
ends. Youth, Love, Life. All end and that is why make them valuable
5. Be
realistic. Life is not movie, you need to have a plan. Have an artist’s ambition
but engineer’s mind-set?
6. Figure
out a way or don’t complaint.

Following
rules doesn’t always guarantee success. Have you heard
about the Law of Averages? The law explains the probability of what you
experience is different from what other people may experience. This is
rampant among gurus giving their outrageous advice and techniques like the 67
steps to success or do this and you’ll earn millions after a month. While it
might be true in some cases, there is no guarantee that you can also do the
same. So hustle and create your own steps, be authentic in everything
that you do.
·
Each person
puts his own interests above all others. Absolutely, during the
time of our ancestors, it is normal for each individual to do anything to fend
for himself in order to survive. As humans, we tend to put our own interest
first to ensure that our result meets our expectations.
·
You can’t
please everyone. As Steve Jobs once said, If you want to
please everyone, just sell ice cream. To please everyone is really such a waste
of time. You have your own life so focus on it. Ignore what others think
because you don’t owe them anything.
·
The world
owes you absolutely nothing. People especially those
posting on social media like to brag how they work so hard on this project or
how much time perfecting this new product. Sorry to burst your bubble but
unless you have a God-given talent, the world doesn’t owe you anything. People
are selfish and they often look at what can you or your product do for them. It
is hard to ask for people’s attention if you didn’t put something valuable on
the table.
·
You can
always find an excuse. This can also be considered as the
blame game. You always find an excuse. Unsuccessful, blame your parents, it’s
their fault. Jobless, blame the government and the economy for not giving
you a job. You blame everyone and everything for your failure instead of
yourself. I recently made a video about the ways how to be poor and
miserable which you can find the link on the description.
·
You are
characterized by your actions, not thoughts. Your
thoughts are inside your brain and your actions are what people see. Your
thoughts are defined by your actions and your actions are defined how other
people look at you.
·
No one will
come and save you, your life is your responsibility. In my
own definition of life, it is a series of events controlled by cause and
effect. Meaning, today is the result of what you did yesterday. Your life
is completely under your control, not unless you are in prison. No one is
responsible for your life but only yourself. No one will come to save you if
you did something wrong and even if you did, embrace your failure and learn
from your mistakes.
·
Comparing
your Chapter 1 with someone else’s Chapter 9 is pure stupidity. Not
all are created equal. There are those who find success earlier, and there are
those who find success later in life. Just keep on pushing forward, hustle and
work more than what is required and by doing so, you’ll have a better chance at
success.
