As we get older and on our feet, we want to give our parents everything:

• Money
• Nicer clothes
• That international vacation

However, none of that is what they truly need.

What they truly need is our time.
That we sit with them and listen to them.
Listen about what’s going on in their lives.
Be interested in them.
Let them feel heard.
Let them know they matter.

As we make more money, the most important thing we could give to our parents is something no money could buy: our presence.

The output tells you there is something to be done. Everyone does something.

The outcome tells you there is something to be achieved. A result. A feeling. A place that makes you feel that you worked in the right direction, instead of simply doing what was on the manual.

Instructions manuals are great. However, that is what AI is there for – eventually.
The manuals to life, where AI cannot take on the tasks of empathy, understanding and perhaps being curious, is where the best performers achieve their outcomes.

You own the outcome. And you own the success. You own the output. And you wait for someone else to make you successful.

If you truly loved someone, remember how much you:

– Encourage them

– Forgive them

– Act as their support

– Feel happy in their success

– Be there during hard times

– Never judge them

– Nor ever compare them to others

Who is stopping you to be that person for yourself?

If you want to 30X your productivity, here are 3 tips for you:

1. No app notifications except calls

2. No unread banners on any app

3. Time limits for all social media apps with password (set by family and not you).

I apply ALL of this to my life and there is not a single day I am not grateful for keeping my focus on the things that are most important.

What are your 30X productivity hacks?

Why do people come to their jobs, and are happy there?

Is it money?

Is it title?

Is it brand?

What it is that actually drives them?

I believe all the above become redundant over time. What truly makes people happy in their jobs is how they feel, every single day. Nothing else. Not what other people think. Not what others say. Not what is happening in the market. Just how people feel – every single day.

The emotion that you feel is the biggest currency – when every external currency fails.

Know that you need to change.
Know that you need to get fit.
Know that you need to learn to be calmer.
Know that you need to learn to

And then, the change happens.

No change ever happened without realizing that change needs to happen.

In 2023, I will kill my records.
In 2023, I will hit the gym 400 days of the year.
In 2023, I will eat healthy for every meal.
In 2023, I will finally get my startup rolling.

You have time, my friend.
It’s okay to not be in a hurry.

The only thing you need is to be consistent, in whatever consistency you pick.

The results will follow.

Sometimes letting go of a timeline for results is landing into the results at the perfect time.

Your hobby can become into a wonderful income stream, if you pursue it with the purpose of never making money off it.

Money is a wonderful thing, my friend.
It is very very important.
I do not deny the importance of it.

However, it is not beyond your love for your passion.
The passion that you cannot get your head out of.
The passion that fuels you more than you fuel it.
The passion that

When you set out on a journey to put your all in, into that passion, without the pressure of making money off it, it will eventually make money for you in a way you had never thought.

And that, is true richness!

People are different.
They are supposed to be.

They are living their truths.
They are supposed to be.

We don’t have to agree with them.
We aren’t supposed to be.

It’s okay if we don’t agree with people. As long as we understand them.

You are going through a tough time.
Unable to think.
Or move forward.

And that is starting to reflect on your relationship with others.

Here’s what might help: EVERYONE is carrying a heavy load. Everyone. Some show, some don’t. But there ain’t anyone who doesn’t have that.

Kindness isn’t reserved for you when you are going through a tough time. It is often reserved for you when you are going through a tough time and still choose to be kind. Because we’re all in this together :)
