Be careful about your Word

i.e. your inner dialogue. They may be invisible, but they are seeds that will take root and grow into your life.

The 2nd Agreement: Don’t Take Anything Personally

The 2nd Agreement: Don’t Take Anything Personally

• What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream.

• You start to get depressed and unhappy because you start to believe those negative things about yourself.

• When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won't be the victim of needless suffering.

• Once you stop taking things personally, you will be much happier.

The 3rd Agreement: Don’t Make Assumptions

The 3rd Agreement: Don’t Make Assumptions

• We often jump to conclusions and make assumptions that are wildly wrong. When you have trouble understanding something, you assume you know what it means. When things become clear, you can see that it means something else entirely.

• Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want.

• Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama.

Don’t look further if you love learning new things. A refreshing concept that provides quick ideas for busy thought leaders.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Sean Green

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Shankul Varada

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Jamyson Haug

Great for quick bits of information and interesting ideas around whatever topics you are interested in. Visually, it looks great as well.

Laetitia Berton

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!

Giovanna Scalzone

Brilliant. It feels fresh and encouraging. So many interesting pieces of information that are just enough to absorb and apply. So happy I found this.

Ghazala Begum

Even five minutes a day will improve your thinking. I've come across new ideas and learnt to improve existing ways to become more motivated, confident and happier.
