101 Life Principles

1.Ability: is more of a function of the time you spend honing your craft, rather than a result of what you were born with.Read:10,000 Hours To Develop Talent

2.Abundance: We live in a world of abundance. There are unlimited wealth and unlimited opportunities for everyone.So dont worry about whether you can succeed in something and focus on how to succeed in it.

3.Action: is a necessary part of success.4.And, not Or: Its not about choosing Option A or Option B. Its about Option C an option you create which has

everything you want, and more.

5.Anger: is the most volatile form of emotion you can ever burden yourself with. Every bit of anger you hold on todamages your soul. Whenever you feel angry, remember that the person you are hurting is yourself.

6.Annoyances: Everything that annoys you mirrors something inside you. Rather than look outward for the solution,look inside to understand where that annoyance is coming from. Read: Day 22: Mirror an Annoyance,Be a Better

Me in 30 Days Program

7.Attachment: only causes anguish in the long run because nothing is permanent in this world. Dont mourn over theloss of something. Be happy that it happened instead. Principle #10 of10 Surefire Ways To Be Unhappy in Life

8.Awareness: is the first step to the resolution of any problem.9.Beauty: Physical beauty is great but it doesnt last. Inner beauty, on the other hand, stands the test of time. This

doesnt mean we shouldnt improve our physical beauty we should focus on being beautiful, both on the inside

and out.10. Beauty, #2: There is no one standard of beauty. Beauty comes in all shapes, all sizes, all forms, all colors. You

are beautiful as you are. Stop trying to conform to the image of beauty constructed by the society and embrace the

beauty that is you.

11. Being yourself: It is better to be a first rate version of yourself than a second rate version of someone else. (JudyGarland)

12. Beliefs: Your beliefs affect your life more than you think they do. If you want to have the best life experience youcan ever have, switch out your disempowering beliefs with empowering ones.

13. Beliefs, #2: Half the things you say are usually more to do with your internal beliefs and issues than to do withother people.

14. Blame: Whenever you point a finger at someone else, there are 4 other fingers pointing back at you.15. Business: In business, being the cog in the system also means you are the clog in the system. Learn to have your

business run without you, be it viaautomatingor outsourcing. Even if you still want to work on your business after

that, thats fine its important that you workonthe business and not inthe business. Read:Million Dollar Tip #4:Scale Up Your Work

16. Change: Just because you have realized something doesnt mean the world around you will change right away. Ittakes time for your thoughts to ripple out and effect the reality because the physical world is denser than the

spiritual one. So dont be hung up with whats on the outside but stay true to whats inside you. Be focused. (Refer

to #33: Focus)

17. Change that lasts: Its better to create sustainable change than change that is quick but does not last. Stop goingfor the easy way out. Learn how to create lasting change instead.

18. Changing people: You cant change other people. You can only change yourself.19. Comparing: There is no need to compare because everyone is different. Your goal is not to be like others but to

be yourself. Stop comparing with others and focus on being yourself instead. (See #11)

20. Competition: The only competition you have is yourself.21. Conditional things: Something that is conditional can never stand the test of time. For example, if your partner

wants to be with you onlyif you do X, Y and Z, whereby X, Y and Z are not things that you believe in. Or say, if aparent will only love his child if he aces his exams. These are relationships rooted in fear and not what you want to

be a part of.

22. Confidence: is a quality that comes from knowing oneself. It cant be manufactured regardless of how manymaterial objects you own or what statuses you have. Read:How To Be The Most Confident Person In The World

23. Criticism: helps you to become better. Rather than reject it, celebrate it. Read:How To Give ConstructiveCriticism: 6 Helpful Suggestions

24. Criticism, #2: Receiving criticism means what you are doing is worthwhile enough for people to critique on. Onewill not criticize unless he/she feels he/she has a stake in it. The more criticism you get, the better, because that

means you are doing something of real value and worth.

25. Cynics, Skeptics, and Pessimists: are not worth arguing with. They are negative time bombs waiting to go off.You will only end up (more) bitter, damaged, and upset at the end of the exchange. Read:How To Deal With

Energy Vampires: 8 Simple Tips| Manifesto version

26. Death: is part and parcel of life. With every death comes a new birth; with every birth comes an eventual death.Dont mourn the dead. Celebrate the fact that they lived.

28. Doing everything alone: You cant accomplish everything by yourself. Even if you do, you can never accomplishas much as compared to if you had the help of others. Involve others in your goals. Delegate, outsource, and hire

where applicable. Ask for help when you need to.

29. Escaping: has never solved any problem for anyone. The moment you decide to face your problems is themoment you gain power over your life. (See #78)

30. Failure: is a necessary part of success. Every great success is almost always preceded by a great failure. Itsmore important that you learn from your failure(s) and harness the lesson(s) so you can achieve your next

success.

31. Fear: is a disempowering emotion to live with. Your real self is not filled with fear. Discard it and you will be setfree. Read:How To Overcome Fear(3-part series)

32. Fear, #2: No matter how much fear you have, your fear can be conquered with love. (By love, Im referring touniversal love, not specifically romantic love.)

33. Focus: is what happens when you stop letting yourself get distracted by the unimportant things.34. Force: You cant force things to happen if they are not meant to be. There is a time and place for everything. You

can only do what you can and let the universe take care of the rest.

35. Forgiveness:isnt about forgiving other people. Its really about forgiving yourself. To quoteLewis Smedes, Toforgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you. Read: Day 25: Forgive Yourself,Be a

Better Me in 30 Days Program

36. Friendships: A friendship is a bond between two like-minded souls. If there are friends you no longer feel anaffinity for, perhaps its time to let the friendships go and work on building new friendships. Read:Why I Parted

Ways With My Best Friend of 10 Years

37. Frustration: makes you feel bad and doesnt help you solve your problem. Release the frustration in you and workon the issues instead. Read:13 Helping Points When Things Dont Go Your Way

38. Fulfillment: You create a more fulfilling life by giving attention to the good things, not the bad things; bycelebrating the good stuff, not whining about the bad stuff; by working on things that you love, not doing the things

that you hate.

39. Future: You cant control the future, but you can affect the present moment. If you want to have a better future,create it. (Check out inspirational quotes on thePast, Present, Future.)

40. Generosity: Being generous doesnt deprive you. When you are generous to others, you subsequently receivemore into your life. Read:Are You Emotionally Generous?

41. Giving and Receiving: Rather than think about what you can receive (whether from people or from the universe),think about what you can give to others.

42. Growth: Always challenge yourself to reach greater heights. There is always room to be better, regardless of whoyou are or what you have done. Be attached to the notion of growth, not an end state.

43. Habits: Your habits make you who you are. Excellent habits give you an excellent life. Read:Cultivate LifeTransforming Habits in 21 Days

44. Happiness: is the result of doing what brings you joy. It is not a goal to be achieved. Rather than focus on beinghappy (for the sake of being happy), do what makes you happy instead. Read:How To Be Happy: 10 Timeless

Principles for Lasting Happiness

45. Haste: Sometimes, more haste leads to less speed. Being in a hurry can lead to more mistakes compared to if youwere not.

46. Humility: will earn you more respect, acknowledgment and recognition than arrogance ever will. Theres no needto be a show off. If you are really good at what you do, it will automatically show through your accomplishments.

47. Ideals: are good but dont let them stop you from living in the present. They are meant to inspire you and give youa direction to move toward so that you can maximize your present moment (not to take you away from living in it).

48. Improving: If you think you cant improve any further in something, then you are just not aware of your areas forimprovement.

49. Individuality: Everyone is different. Accept that each and every person is unique. Stop imposing expectations onpeople.

50. Inspiration: comes from being in the state of flow. If youre not feeling inspired, youre not in a state of flow.51. Intuition: When in doubt, follow your intuition. It will guide you to where you need to be.52. Intuition and Logic: Contrary to popular belief, intuition and logic are not at odds with each other they go hand-

in-hand. Hone your analytical mind through constant thinking. Cultivate your intuition by listening to your gut. They

will be the biggest tools you have at your disposal.

53. Jealousy: is what happens when you resent someones success. But you dont have to, because you are capableof achieving that same level of success, and more.

54. Judgement: Judging people doesnt make you a better person. It only makes you an ugly one.55. Laughter: Perhaps a little cliche, but laughter is one of the best medicines for the soul. Whens the last time you

7/29/2019 101 Life Principles

3/4

56. Let go: Sometimes you have to let go of what you have now in order to move forward. Read: Day 28: Let Go,Livea Better Life in 30 Days Program

57. Let go, #2: If there is something you cant let go of, dig deeper. There is probably something in you waiting to beuncovered. Read:Ask Celes Is It Possible To Let Go of Unhappy Past Forever?andHow To Move On From a

Relationship(5-part series)

58. Life: is an experience that you actively create, not something you wait around to happen.59. Limits: The only limit in life is yourself. No ones stopping you from becoming better and achieving more exceptyourself. To reach greater heights, identify your limits and remove them accordingly.60. Love: isnt something you deliberately seek out. Its something that happens when you follow your life path,

become the right person, and meet that right person along your lifes journey.

61. Low consciousness people: If you do not want to be affected by people of low consciousness, simply raise yourconsciousness to a level where you are safe from them. Read:Map of Consciousness

62. Low consciousness people, #2: Low consciousness people hold you back from reaching greater heights. Theseinclude energy vampires, critical people, dishonest characters, and people with temperament issues. Let them go

from your life and send them love as you do that.

63. Material objects: are just tools to help you enjoy your life. You do not carry them with you when you die. So, dontinvest yourself in them. Rather, invest yourself in the development of your consciousness. Read:Materialism

Breeds Unhappiness

64. Meaning of life: is up to you to create. You can either treat life like it has no meaning or see it as this amazingopportunity that the universe has blessed you with. Read:Discover Your Purpose in the Next 30 Minutes

65. Mistakes: are there to help you learn more about yourself. Dont be hung up about the mistakes you make. Dontbe afraid of making (more) mistakes either. Be hungry about the lessons they embody.

66. Money: is a symbol of value exchange between people. The amount of money you earn is simply a representationof the value you are giving to others. To earn more money, simply create more value for others.

67. Motivation: comes naturally when you do what you love.68. Nasty people: There is always something good in everyone even in the nastiest of people. Its up to you to

recognize that.

69. Nasty people, #2: The nastiest of people are also the unhappiest of people. Be kind to them because they are theones who need your love the most.

70. Obstacles: The obstacles that lie between you and your goals are not there to stop you from reaching your goals.They are there to stop the people who dont want them enough. (Original quote by Randy Pausch. Watch his

commencement speech at Carnegie Mellon:10 Powerful and Inspiring Graduation Speeches You Dont Want To

Miss(#3 on the list))

71. Opportunities: dont come knocking on your door just by virtue of you doing nothing. You can either passivelywait for opportunities to fall onto your lap or actively create them yourself.

72. Passion: If you arent following your passion, you have nothing to lose. Seriously. If you have to work for at least2/3s of your life, you might as well base it off your passion. Stop letting yourself be hung up by fear and start

pursuing your dreams. Read:How To Overcome Fear Of Loss And Pursue Your DreamsandPassion or Money?

73. Past: You cant change the past; it has happened and it is what it is. Fixating on it isnt going to get you anywhere.You can only change the present to create a better future.

74. People you dislike: Your life is limited, so spend it around people you like.75. Pleasing other people: When you live a life trying to please others, you end up not living a life at all. You are just

living others lives under the facade of your life.

76. Positivity: If you want to have more positivity in your life, start by being more positive yourself. Spot the silverlining behind every dark cloud. Recognize the strengths of the people you are with. See the good side of

everything you have.

77. Possibilities: We live in a world of possibilities. Anything you have ever dreamed of, imagined, or wished for, ispossible, as long as you set your heart and soul to it.

78. Power: You have all the power in you to do everything you ever want, and more. So start doing what you want andlet the power in you emerge.

79. Procrastination: is a sign of a bigger issue. Stop trying to fix your procrastination as a problem and start thinkingabout why you are procrastinating in the first place. Read:How To Overcome Procrastination(5-part series)

80. Progress: Celebrate how far youve come, and not how much you have yet to achieve. The former will empoweryou to greatness, while the latter is rooted in fear and only serves to hold you back from greatness.

81. Priorities: Know what matters to you and work on them. These are the things that will bring you the greatesthappiness in life. Read:Put First Things First

82. Lead by example: If you want to initiate change, lead by example. Words can only do so much. A living exampleshows everything.

83. Reality: Just like how the kind of fruit a tree bears is a result of the seed it is sown from, your external reality ismerely a reflection of your internal beliefs. Change your beliefs and your reality will follow suit. (See #12)

7/29/2019 101 Life Principles

4/4

84. Regret: is what happens when you are stuck with the impression that you did (or didnt do) something you wishyou didnt (or did). But you cant change the past; no one can. Milk that is spiltcant be unspilt. Stop living in the

past and start living in the present.

85. Relationships: A relationship is a bond between two dynamic individuals. It should be actively created betweenthe parties involved, and not something you base off of norms and other relationships. Dont impose expectations

on your relationships; nurture them and let them come into their own. Read:How To Improve Your Relationship

With Your Parents(series)86. Resistance: The more you resist something, the more it will persist.87. Respect: Everyone, no matter who, deserves respect. If you want others to respect you, its important you respect

them first.

88. Responsibility: Nobody is responsible for your life. You are. If you dont take responsibility for your life, no onewill. The day you stop pushing blame onto others is the day your life is going to turn around. Read:You are the

CEO of Your Life

89. Results: The results you get in life are a function of the actions you take. The more actions you take, the moreresults you will see.

90. Root cause: Behind every occurrence is a root cause. Dig for the root cause and address that. Read:Create RealChange In Life: Address Root Cause vs. Effects

91. Seeking love: If you are desperately seeking love, perhaps theres something inside you thats blocking you fromseeing it. Because love is everywhere, around you, and in you. Theres no need to seek love so much as you just

need to be aware of its presence . You are the product of love. You are the biggest source of love. You live in a

world of love. Read:8 Tips on Attracting Authentic Love Into Your Life

92. Settling: Settling is for losers. Dont ever, ever, settle for something less than your ideal. Your ideal is yours tohave. Fight for it.

93. Spite: When you try to spite other people, you are really just hurting yourself. The people you are trying to spitemay not care. In fact, they may not even know how hung up you are over them. All you are doing is just acting out

a self-created story and script in your mind.

94. Success: Success is the result of being great at what you do. Being great at what you do is the result of hardwork. Hard work is the result of determination, persistence, and relentless focus.

95. Success, #2: There is no such thing as an overnight success. Every success you see, even if it seemingly quick,is the result of long periods of hard work that took place long before the point of success.

96. Time: is a construct created by man so we can have structure in our lives. You become a slave to time when youalways think in terms of the time you have and what you should do rather than of results and outputs. Rather than

try to manage time, work on self-management and activity management. Read:Become the Master of Your Time

97. Truth: It is always better to tell the truth because you stay clean that way. When you tell a lie, you live a lie forever.Not only that, you almost always have to cover it up with new lies. It is a cycle that never ends.

98. Unhappiness: 100% of the unhappiness you experience in your life is a product of your thoughts. If you want tobe happy, then make aconscious choiceto be happy. (See #44)

99. Vengeance: is an act of force/fear that doesnt solve the problem. Look at the history of mankind and the wars thatwere waged. Go with the path of love, not fear/vengeance/force.

100.Whats meant to be: If something is meant to be, it will happen (provided you do your part in making it happen).The more tightly you try to grab on to something, the more it will slip away. Its just like trying to grab sand it slips

through the cracks of your fingers regardless how tightly you grab it.

101.Yourself: Dont do things for others; do them for yourself.
