Don’t spend time worrying on your problems, seek solutions. If you don’t invest time in building your dreams, users will exploit you to build theirs. Don’t work for money and lifestyle. Work for purpose and freedom. Don’t force yourself to fit into relationships you’re not valued. Be original. Don’t spend most of your lifetime living someone else’s life. Have a beautiful life outside the social media noise. After diseases and trouble, avoid negative people as much as you can. Be grateful for what you have, strive to be better and never compare your life to anyone. Never place your happiness in the hands of people. Prioritize work-life balance. You will be glad you did.
