It’s such an amazing, wonderful characteristic. It draws people toward you. It makes life so much better.

Write Out Your Plan
Get it down on paper. Start with 35 years from now. Note down what you’ll have done, been, seen and have. Write it like it came true.
You’ll start to focus on these points every day. Keep reading them and rewriting them. Soon they’ll start to appear in your life. You will be in awe, but keep going.
Lists Are Powerful
Make a list in advance.
You’ll feel the power as you write it.
You’ll love the feeling as you execute down it.
Smile More
You wake up – smile! You’re driving a car – smile. Find a pop in the fridge – smile.
There are a million and one reasons to smile in life. You just need to recognise them and smile.
Peace
A word used quite often. Though anyone screaming it probably doesn’t really understand its true meaning or significance.
Peace is calm, tranquil, and understanding. There are no games. If two countries or people want this in their relationship, and both work towards that as their ultimate common goal, then it will happen.
You can’t have only one party openly and actively committed to peace and still achieve it. The other side has to participate, with peace as its highest priority, or it is nearly impossible to achieve. Otherwise, the committed party will always be a bit hesitant and wonder if the other party will keep the peace, and that is not peace for the committed party.
The war zone can be quiet, and peace can reign, when both parties come to the table with only peace as its top priority.
Be Yourself
There are lots of people to be these days and the best one is to be yourself.
Be More Curious
It’s easy to think we know so much. Yet, we know very little. We extrapolate, generalise, use bias and guess quite a bit.
We hurry people through their speech, usually just to say our bit. We aren’t that interested in what the other person has to say. We have our view and want to express that.
Yet things can dramatically improve if we just get more curious. Listen patiently to the person speaking. Understand their current mindset. Get the context in perspective. Listen to their words and emphasis.
You will learn a lot. You will improve your understanding. Your communication will improve. And you’ll become a better person.
Minimalist
The less you have, the less admin you have. The more you have, the more you need a family office or house manager.
Regardless, I feel the more minimalist you become, the happier you will be.
Keep Learning
You can learn something from pretty much anything. It could be from people, like your parents, or experiences, or from watching or reading.
When you’re 16, you think you know everything. But at some point you should realise that there is more info than you could imagine in the universe.
Keep learning!
