Do Epic Shit

The easiest way to learn from mistakes is to read books.
The next option is to commit them yourself.
Books are a great way to learn from mistakes someone else has made over their lifetime!
Why would you want to commit them again?
If given a choice between a Rs 300 book plus a couple of hours reading it or 10 years of making
mistakes, what would you choose?
You can get anything back in life but not time.
And the best way to collapse the timeline is by deriving lessons from others’ timelines and making them
your own.
Resisting the obvious is a great way to change your orbit. If you do what everyone else will do,
you will end up like everyone else.
Here’s how I resist the obvious.
While making a decision, I ask myself, ‘What would most people do?’
Then I consider alternate options.
This one question has led to so many opportunities and different directions than I could have imagined
had I opted for the obvious route.
Only when you go against the flow will you find your own flow.
Complaining has never ever led someone to a solution.
Complaining amplifies the problem.
It justifies why it exists.
Makes us feel the victim, the person subject to the miseries created by the problem.
All of this robs you of your power. And tricks you into believing that you don’t have any.
If you had to choose just one habit for the rest of your life, let it be of not complaining. And see how
effortlessly you reach solutions.
The real problem was never the real problem. The real problem was the compound interest of
complaining.
Working out teaches you discipline and patience like few other things do.
You can’t buy a fit body.
You can’t get fit overnight.
You can’t cheat to get to a fit body.
You can’t ride on someone else to get a fit body.
You can’t blame anybody for not being fit.
Neither can you ask someone to get fit on your behalf.

It is only going to happen if you show up every day.
And be patient.
And that’s a valuable lesson.
For life!
The most dangerous people are those who run away from change. 
They are also the most energy sucking.
