Key Ideas
Pay the Costs
Recognize that everything you do has a cost decide if you're willing to pay it. Freebies and shortcuts do not work in the long run.
Ask yourself not what you want, but what you're willing to suffer for.
No One Really Cares
Few people actually care about you. Because you’re not as special as you think and also, most people are too concerned with themselves.
Use this piece of knowledge to liberate yourself and do what you want.
Focus On Habits, Not Goals
It's ok to have goals, but obsessing over them is often counterproductive because, in reality, achieving a goal isn’t always what it’s cracked up to be.
Create a system of healthy habits for the most important parts of your life.
Figure Out Who You Are
Self-awareness is extremely beneficial to start to change your life.
There's no way to change your life in a meaningful way if you don't know what you want to change about yourself in the first place.
Focus On Fewer Things
To live a more meaningful life, focus on fewer things, and get good at them, as we have a finite number of days.
Stop Trying so Hard
Just be grateful for what you have, and enjoy simple things.

Consider Your Current Position
When we become used to the daily grind, we end up losing ourselves along the way. It is only when we approach work with the mindset of providing value that we gain a sense of achievement.
Ask yourself why you have this job. Does it involve work you are passionate about? Is there something you particularly enjoy about this work?
Map Out Your Future
Our future may be more exciting than our current situation. You can leverage that to your advantage by using it as motivation to work harder.
Use each job you hold as a stepping stone towards your goal. Your current position serves a purpose, whether it is to build your resume, teach you skills, or help you save money to look for a new job.
To keep you highly motivated, set a deadline, and break your goals down into smaller, achievable tasks.

To give your day structure, keep the same routine as when you went into an office. Get up at the same time and make a to-do list. Check in with the same person every morning.

Set Boundaries
Pick a place for your office away from distraction.
Boundaries also apply to other people who may be sharing the same space. Children can work alongside you as if they were coming to the office.
Schedule Breaks
You won't have the same cues as you do from your workplace to remind you to get up or get lunch. When you lose the pace of your day, everything can start to blend together.
Treat your exercise, meals and stretch breaks as you would any other meeting. Put it on your calendar, at least to start.
