Generally speaking it is much harder to face the brutal truths of life so we tend to tell ourselves convenient lies.

The quickest way to make progress in your life and to head in the right direction is to start facing up to these truths and that is why I have put together this list. Read it often until it is ingrained into your mind and start the journey to become the best version of yourself.

1. We Will Eventually Lose Everyone And Everything That We Love.

And while that may sound like the end of the world, it is merely just another aspect of life and sooner we accept it the sooner we can actually enjoy and appreciate what we have while we have it.

So mend your relationships, especially with those who made a difference in your journey because you might not get a second chance to do so.

After your relationships affairs are in a good place, it’s time to get serious about your life.

One day you will no longer be here!!

So why the hell do you want to live a boring life?

You should do whatever is in your power to create the life you want to live, because you only get this one!

2. Bad things happen to good people.

Sometimes, the good die young and often the bravest men perish but what is important is that we don’t let them die in vain.

3. Life isn’t fair.

The good guys don’t always win, things will not always go our way, and that is just the way that it is. What’s important is to keep a positive mindset and to enjoy the ride.

4. People aren’t always going to be nice.

Sometimes no matter how nice you are to people there will always be rude people out there. Don’t let them kill your kindness.

5. No one is perfect. And no one ever will be.

And don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

6. Change always happens.

Often when we least expect it, things will be turned upside down and it’s up to us to be able to adapt to the new circumstances as best we can.

7. You never get back wasted time.

Never.

8. Things won’t always turn out the way we expect.

And that’s okay.

9. Time is the most precious currency you have.

Spend it wisely.

10. You can’t make everyone happy.

No matter how hard you try some people will just never appreciate you. Don’t worry about them, keep being yourself and those who deserve you will appreciate you.

11. If you want to live comfortably, you have to do something productive.

In order to be happy in this life, we need something to strive for and a purpose to keep us going.

12. If you’re not Living, you’re just existing.

Being alive and living your life are two different concepts. Many people make the mistake of getting trapped in a rat race and they forget to live. Time goes by so fast and you won’t realize when your entire life has passed you by.

13: Happiness comes from what you do for others.

Let that sink in for a while and then have a look at your own life, are you happy?
What generated this particular happiness?
Who is responsible for it?
Which actions led to your state of happiness?
When’s the last time you made someone happy?

The answers to all these questions will give you a better understanding of your own happiness and which actions caused it.

Once you know that, hunt that feeling and get to it as close as possible.
