Pretty solid words to reflect on

By age 35 You should be smart enough to realize this:

1.. Stay silent. Not everything needs to be said.

2.. Silence is better than unnecessary drama.

3.. If you find someone smarter than you, work with them, don't compete. Competition is a weakness.

4.. The family you create is more important than the family you come from.

5.. Your current job doesn't care about you. They only pay you enough to kill your dreams.

6.. Free yourself from society's advice, most of them have no idea of what they're doing.

7.. Influence most people drift through life. They have no purpose, no direction, and zero intent. Learn their needs. Lead them.

8. It's better to have 1 friend who's;

Happy for you
Supports your win
Encourage your dreams
Than a bunch of acquittances who are

Lazy
Self-centered
Jealous of your success

9. You'll be 10x happier if you forgive your parents and stop blaming them.

10. No one will ever come save you. Your life is 100% your responsibility.

11.Your inner circle should be more focused on money, success, and starting a family.

12.You don't need 100 self-help books. All you need is actions and self-discipline.

Believe in your heart and soul that you are capable of big things in your life.

The only thing that is standing in your way is yourself.
