Every essay in this book emphasizes the importance of your mindset. How you see the world around you, how you view and deal with your problems and what attitude you have towards life and yourself dictates how you feel and act - and ultimately the quality of your life and experiences.

Problems Are Blessings

Problems Are Blessings

Your problem is never the actual problem. The main problem you have is the way you look at it and how you deal with it. Your problems show you, what you need to work on and once you climbed that mountain, you will be much stronger and understand why things happened the way they did. Challenges lead to growth.

A World Full Of Blind People

A World Full Of Blind People

Imagine a world where everyone is blind. What about you will impress the people around you? How will they view you?

This is my favourite takeaway from the book, because it beautifully shows that none of all these materialistic things and outer looks really matter. What is of true importance is how you interact with the people around you, your character and your personality.

Focus on how your life feels instead of what it looks like.

What You Hate About Other People

What You Hate About Other People

...is what you secretly hate about yourself! You simply ignore and suppress these things which is why you are often not aware of them.

At the same time, what you love about other people, is usually what you love about yourself!

So in order to figure out what you like or dislike about yourself, take a look at how you react to the people around you.

All Feelings Are Valid

All Feelings Are Valid

Every feeling you experience is okay. You can only appreciate happiness once you experienced sadness. In fact, people that are happy all the time and that never experience negative feelings are mentally unhealthy. Feel your negative emotions but don't give them too much significance or they will hold you back.
