1) We have only one life. But we don’t need to be one person.

1) We have only one life. But we don’t need to be one person.

This is one such inspirational thought that I really liked in this book. Most of us have many passions in our life and for 90% of us, our full-time job is not from one of those passions. It could be due to various reasons why we have chosen the one that we are doing instead of following our passions.

But you don’t need to define yourself to just one title, one designation for your entire life. You can still explore your other interests. You can still become an entrepreneur in addition to your day job.

You can still become an artist and sell your artwork online. If you are interested in creating content, writing online, you can still do these and earn money from your side hustle. You can continue this until your one identity changes from your day job to something else.

Don’t just define yourself to one role and one title. Explore your passions. You only have one life but you don’t need to live with just one identity.

5) No one is useless. Everyone knows something you don’t.

When we approach people with the mindset that they don’t know anything, we close all doors to learning something new. Only when we shut the door of our ego and be open to learning something new do we realize how much we don’t know.

As everyone has stories, each story comes with the knowledg...

2) Time goes away and leaves us with only two things

We always wanted to achieve a lot in our life, do something that interest us for so many years. We want to do those that have been waiting for years.

3) Don’t live your life as a template?

Most of us will be living our life as a template that is doing the same things over and over again in our work life. When we say we have 10 years of experience, is it 10 years of experience or 1 year of experience done 10 times over and over?

Doing the same thing over and over a yea...

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

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!

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.

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!
