Self Made Dreams Are Reality

"There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure." -- Colin Powell How to feel ‘unstuck’ in life? I want to make various changes (job, relationships, own self) but I just don’t know where to even start to begin living the best life I can/could. This is the most popular question I get so thank you for asking. My advice is from my own experience. I know what that feeling is like. I know the unhappiness and frustration to feel stuck. I will share what helped me finally get unstuck in life. I hope you’re at a point where you’re willing to do whatever it takes. That means trying new things. That means getting out of your comfort zone. That means doing things differently. That also means having an open mind to take in advice from different sources then trying it for yourself. There’s nothing worse than someone thinking they know it all and being stubborn. If they did, then why are they stuck in life or running into the ...

"Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved." -- Helen Keller "Just because the houses look alike doesn't mean they have the same foundation." -- Kennedy Siaw In life if there’s something you want, you have to go and get it. No sitting around waiting for it to come to you. Sit too long and it’ll be gone. To achieve the life you want, it takes action. It’s time today to become a hustler in life. I am and you should do.

I’m suppose to answer them and share it with only the members of the group. Instead I want extraaccountablity and am going to share with you all. The reason is because I want you to know a little more of my story. I’m opening up to you. These are my hon...

TOLERATE AMBIGUITY Breakthrough ideas are not always the result of a revolutionary Eureka moment. On the contrary, they are often the result of an evolutionary series of approximations or failed experiments. When Thomas Edison was asked how it felt to fail 800 times before coming up with tungsten as the filament for the light bulb, his answer was a revealing one. “Fail?” he said. “I didn’t fail once. I learned 800 times what didn’t work.” Edison had the ability to tolerate ambiguity — to “not know.” Like most breakthrough thinkers, he had the ability to dwell in the grey zone. Confusion was not his enemy. “Confusion,” explained Henry Miller, “is simply a word we have invented for an order that is not yet understood.” If you are attempting to birth a breakthrough idea, get comfortable with discomfort. Give up your addiction to having all your ducks in a row — at least in the beginning of your discovery process. People may think you’re a quack, but so what? Your chances...
