The truth shall set you free and the truth shall not take long.
So, bear with me for a second.
A wise and wealthy man once shared me his recipe of success.
Son, when you wake up tomorrow and you drive in your car to work.
Observe.
Look at all the people around you.
What are they driving. What are they doing. What are the expressions on their faces. What direction is everyone driving. How many people have a smile.
Then at work.
Listen.
Listen to their conversations. Listen to their fears. Their desires. What are they doing. What are they buying. What are their dreams?
Then when you drive back, observe again.
Tonight, before you go to sleep. Think it over. Everything you observed. Everything you heard. Everything you saw and if you desire success make a choice.
Go to sleep.
And tomorrow when you wake up do only one thing.
The opposite of everyone else.
Of course, the simple advice only became practical years later.
See, we all secretly envy the few that ventures in another direction.
Yet, few of us ever venture to act.
If you want success in your life – regardless the level – you must start with one small step.
Dare to be different.
Start looking at the world differently.
Act differently.
Do differently.
Whether you want to approach this gradually or drastically is up to your level of patience.
But just start.
For me it was simple things. Blocking out the media noise. Reading instead of watching TV. Playing sports instead of watching it. Thinking about thing. Observing.
Eventually it became my mantra.
Dare to be different.
I will write more on this subject, but want to leave you with this:
Nothing in your life will change if you continue to follow the norm.
What is your take on it? Would love to hear from you.
Have a great Friday and weekend Steemers!
