Why perspective goes a long way.
Would you rather be stuck in traffic caused by a fallen tree, or be the one who’s car had the tree fall on?
This talk was spurred obviously by my frustratingly delayed commute to work. Given my commute is only about 8 minutes, but it turned into 25 minutes, which really annoyed me.
Until I got closer to the reason why there was traffic, and then instantly I changed my attitude. I would rather be in traffic than have my car totaled by a fallen tree.

Why our challenges and setbacks are necessary for success.
This idea came from me listening to Eminem’s new album Kamikaze on repeat. Needless to say, I’m lowkey obsessed with it.

Why we shouldn’t force others to communicate like us.
This talk was spurred by a discussion I was in where one lady felt uncomfortable because someone an introverted person wouldn’t communicate like the other extroverts.
It’s my belief that when you feel uncomfortable with someone else’s personality, its 100% your responsibility/fault, not theirs.
We shouldn’t try and force people to adapt to our communication style.
Instead, we should accept people for who they are and be more understanding that not everyone is like us.
Just my 2 cents.
The key to spending more is to know what you value and what brings you happiness.
For many of us, we feel like we’re not good with our money.
The key to being able to spend more is to:
From there, you can develop your own “conscious spending plan” as outlined in the book I Will Teach You To Be Rich by Ramit Sethi.
