Lesson 1: Boost your happy chemicals
I thought it was crazy that I could read 134 books develop a
positive mindset and still feel like crap, I've come to realize that brain
chemistry plays a huge role in your well-being a point that's often left out in
books that promote thinking positively.
think positive all you
like but if your hormones are out of balance then you'll still feel like
garbage so the three fundamental ways I've found to keep your brain chemistry
in check how to get your 8 hours sleep to exercise regularly and eat healthy, that
may sound boring but do not underestimate their power many people don't do
these three things well yet they'll fork out tons of money on the latest smart
drugs weight loss solutions and information products

Lesson 2: Forget self-help just be kind
This was a phrase that struck a chord with me in a little-known book written by Darren Brown an English Mentalist and illusionist.
the majority of
lessons we can learn from self-help books come down to one thing be kind, it
will make everyone around you happier including yourself, you'll make more
friends be less anxious be more grateful for what you have and you'll be
physically healthier the list goes on how can we be kind simple just smile help
someone with their homework takes out the trash without being asked and
compliment people.
Lesson 3: Value your time
Time is the most valuable asset you can get back money but
you can never get back your time yet most people dish out their time like it's
nothing especially teenagers and 20-year olds it's insane.
you're afraid of hurting someone's feelings so you spend time
talking to them even when you don't want it, you procrastinate every day
instead of sorting your life out you work for a low wage even though your time
is worth more, countless people on their deathbed regret not giving time to
their family they regret caring what other people thought of them they regret
working a job they hated.
So start valuing your time and leading a life the way you
want to before you wake up at the end of your life and say where did it all go.
Lesson 4: The 80/20 principle
A classic this is a commonly cited principle and countless
business and self-development books, it says that 80 percent of results come
from 20% of the causes, so it's likely that 80 percent of your happiness comes
from 20% of the things you do you may spend a bit of center of your time with
20% of your friends.
you can apply it to all areas of your life to get the most
bang for your buck for example, when I make article on this site I aim to make,
the 20% of articles that give me 80% of the results and when it comes to my
health I focus on getting eight hours of sleep eating healthy and exercising
because those are the 20% of activities that contribute to 80% of my health and
well-being. apply this to everywhere in your life and you'll progress much
faster lesson.

Lesson 5: Learn how to win friends and influence people
How to win friends and influence people by Dale Carnegie is
the most famous book that I consider required reading, how much does your life
revolve around other people your family friends and coworkers are all people by
learning how to interact with them you open yourself up to huge opportunities,
like a stronger relationship with your partner and making friends that don't
suck people will hire you to listen to you and love you, everyone can learn to be
social.
Lesson 6: Create don't consume
We live in a consumer culture I consumed 134 books and got
nowhere, until I started creating things that's when I began learning and
opportunities came my way, this site is a prime example of my efforts, I
improved my writing communication video editing and animation skills I've made
friends attracted freelancing opportunities, so I can work from anywhere and
strengthened my understanding of the lessons from books by teaching people like
you, none of this would have happened if I didn't start creating so take action.
Lesson 7: Mind over matter
Everything can be taken from a man but one thing the last of
the human freedoms to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances to
choose one's own way.
That's what Viktor Frankl famously a survivor of Auschwitz
concentration camp, you know when you drop your phone and you go to pick it up
and freak out that it might have a cracked screen and then you find out that it
was cracked and you become angry and frustrated well that happened to me
recently, but I chose to respond differently, I accepted what had happened
being angry wasn't going to fix my phone right, so I moved on with life and got
it fixed the following week no dramas so there are events in this
world that are outside of your control, a partner falling out of love with you
natural disasters or accidentally dropping a phone, you can't change what's
happened but you can choose how to react to it.
Thank you for staying to the end guys
