1 — Read more
I’ve learned more in the last 2 years than I did in 18 years of school because I rediscovered a love for reading and autodidactism
I consume a new book every week relating to any and every subject that captures my attention.
I use books to fuel the fire that is my imagination
Instead of relying on other people to define the curriculum that I should follow I allowed my inquisitive nature and curiosity to propel me forward.
I’ve learned about quantum mechanics, Theodore Roosevelt and the evolution of man in the last month while supplementing that with some of Russia’s most fabled works of fiction
2 — Fail More
We fail to recognize the opportunity we are afforded when we are young to make mistakes, learn, recover and evolve
We mistakenly assume that failure is fatal and let this paralyse us from taking risks.
