PODCAST: 7 Life Lessons Successful People Mastered Young
While Business Insider’s list of seven things people who’ve hit success milestones by age 35 have mastered isn’t groundbreaking, little reminders are always helpful, no matter your age.
- It’s okay to ask for advice. Let go of that fear of not having the answers. The world is complicated and no one knows everything.
- Dedicate time every week to be alone. It may be hard at first but force yourself until it becomes a craving you must satisfy.
- Choose what you dedicate your energy to. Time is not infinite, so decide which fights are worth having.
- Never stop learning. Education doesn’t, and probably never really did, last a lifetime.
- Make it a point to leave your comfort zone. Remember how good it felt that time you achieved something you thought you couldn’t?
- Choose to exit that rut you’re stuck in. Don’t force yourself to stay in a place that brings you down.
- Finally, remember: you can’t please everyone.
