10 Life Lessons You Won't Learn Anywhere Else.

Previously, I might have given some lessons I have learnt in 24 Months,

By nature man should learn, adapt and survive,

It's through pain that you learn the greatest secrets of life, things we ignore but really matter,

Which lessons?

Let's see,
1. Be ready to unlearn anything- by unlearning, chances of anything happening are infinite,

People change,

Times change,

Feelings change,

When this happens, take a step back, don't bitch around, feel, heal and move on. Create your reality.
2. Relearn- Your existence is random, nature would be so unfair or fair to have you where you are. It's your life, YOU,

It is what it is, just does not work,

You have to make it work, so you must learn,

Faster to even outrun your capabilities.
3. Every man is intimidated by your success- Your success is ONLY important to anyone if it's beneficial to them in a way. It's not about you, it's about them,

Be careful with heights, it's slippery and way too far down.
4. Never trust anyone- Betrayal is an inherent part of any institution where people who need each other exists.

Actually, the best relationships are made by people who don't need each other.

Chances of dilemma presented before them will determine your worth on standoff.
5. Everybody loves a winner- if you are a winner, you tend to have nothing to lose on the downside.

Those below you have no option but to love you anyway,

Loving you becomes a necessity because it's more beneficial than hating.
6. Have a team, but remember you are alone- have a team that is working together for a common purpose, seldom will betrayal exist.

All in all, be alert because your team helps you prepare for a battle but fight alone.
7. It never gets easier because you are too tired/busy to do it today- procrastination is just laziness sugarcoated.

You and I both know people make time for what they want. Life's not getting easier on you because you are not ready.
8. There's no payday without risk- Luck is an illusion. You'll have to give to get.

The higher the risk, the higher the gain.
9. The eyes tell the truth- look at them right in the eye when they talk. You'll know it by default,

Are they telling the truth or lying,
10. Being good is better than looking good. Being good and looking good is how you reach the top- don't fall for bad things happen to the good people.

How will you leap what you didn't sow?

Don't be good because of any gain. Be good because it's right.
How was the feeling all along?

Until next time,

Do you think that was all true?

Let's say,

"Hell Yeah!"

How to get smarter very fast:

Interact with smart people here on Twitter who have different world-views than you do.

And let them change your mind on something.

Here are the 30 people you should follow (along with my favorite tweet from each)👇👇

Twitter can be terrible if you follow negative people.

It can also be more valuable than a college degree if you follow (and network with) the right people.

You get to look right into their brain and read a daily narrative of HOW they think.

Ok lets go:

4/ Before the arrival of recorded music, what used to be scarce was the actual music itself — required an in-person artist.

After recorded music, the music itself became abundant and what became scarce was curation, distribution, and self space.

5/ Similarly, in careers, what used to be (more) scarce were things like ideas, money, and exclusive relationships.

In the internet economy, what has become scarce are things like specific knowledge, rare & valuable skills, and great reputations.
"I really want to break into Product Management"

make products.

"If only someone would tell me how I can get a startup to notice me."

Make Products.

"I guess it's impossible and I'll never break into the industry."

MAKE PRODUCTS.

Courtesy of @edbrisson's wonderful thread on breaking into comics –
https://t.co/TgNblNSCBj – here is why the same applies to Product Management, too.


There is no better way of learning the craft of product, or proving your potential to employers, than just doing it.

You do not need anybody's permission. We don't have diplomas, nor doctorates. We can barely agree on a single standard of what a Product Manager is supposed to do.

But – there is at least one blindingly obvious industry consensus – a Product Manager makes Products.

And they don't need to be kept at the exact right temperature, given endless resource, or carefully protected in order to do this.

They find their own way.
