Perhaps what we call "secular" is boring and peaceful, and that is truly how we spend our lives. We have the chance to turn it into what we want - retransmission that it is lacking in adventure or satisfied with beauty

Perhaps the rich lives we were looking for are irrelevant to major events and it appears in more subtle ways: accepting a pause between major beats

Just like seeing stories in books and large screens, real life does not necessarily happen. In most cases, it is different from taking risks. In fact, it looks boring from time to time

In spite of our efforts to do this, we will still encounter at occasionally inconspicuous moments. So what do we do?

What if we are waiting for surrender although we are no longer struggling for the next important moment? Do you intend to learn to live in the so-called "boring" era?

What if we fall in love with a middleman and enjoy an interruption instead of indignation? You can learn some lessons.

One of the most valuable parts of BestSelf Journal is that day's lesson. We learn a lot of courses everyday, but without discipline to capture them, there is nothing more than we can not learn at all. Indeed, the idea of ​​this model gained a hint from the lesson I learned yesterday. In other words, thorough work of 90 minutes is my usual sweet spot. When I saw that pattern, I started looking for other patterns. When you recognize the pattern of your life, you will change from an enthusiastic pace to a fast, intensive, sustainable drive of tempo.

Here are some of the most important lessons I have learned in my life - from books that are smarter than my own, from experienced experiences to friends, teachers and mentors. Some of these courses took a long time to learn - I hope to learn faster, but it will take longer if you do not help. People who are good at singing are those who like to sing and warm up. People who are really good at basketball are those who like dribbling and layup training. Successful online business owners prefer not only to earn money, but also to write articles and manage advertising campaigns.

I am hoping that I learned many courses to evaluate and apply them when I was young. Wisdom, and often the lesson of life, is a long time after we needed them. The good news is that other people can benefit from our experience and the lessons learned. Money is a tool; buy some good "needs" of necessities and goods, but that is not a panacea to solve the problem. There are many people living in very few places, but they are living a very fulfilling and happy ... and it is a pity that many people are living a lot of lives, but They live very miserably.
