nine short rules for a better life number one wake up early to focus on effort not results
read every day as general masses if you don't read you are functionally illiterate strict with yourself tolerant with others again you control what you do you control the standards you hold yourself to seek out challenges be comfortable being uncomfortable stay a student always stay a student focus on what there is left to learn not what you've already discovered cut toxic people out of your life have good boundaries if they're not making your life better by we were all born with a fatal diagnosis to take life for granted is an incredible waste
and that's what seneca says it's not the life is short it's that we waste a lot of it and finally i'm repeating this one because it's so important
focus on what you control you control what you do you control you say you control what you think
everything else
is not up to you
not worth your focus
