10 things to quit immediately…

Yes, immediately. It’s urgent and important. You can thank me later. Let’s act. Let it go! The life is too short to be wasted on stuff that doesn’t matter — at all.

1. What people think of you. That’s none of your business. Let ‘people’ do their job. You do yours!
2. Acting as if you are powerless. And when you act too often, you become powerless. Act responsibly. Response-Ably.
3. Fear of failure. Fear of failure is funny. It distracts you from controlling what you can and deprives you from celebrating what’s available right now.
4. Need for control and certainty. Need for speed is ok but need for control and certainty is illusionary. That’s not how things are designed by nature. Start enjoying uncertainty.
5. Comparison. With whom? When? On what basis? Under what circumstances? Comparison is perhaps the most vicious attack on our happiness.
6. Busyness as status symbol. You are busy — good. Try to improve on how you organize your day. Bragging about how busy you are is funny. It’s like bragging about what you should be actually ashamed of.
7. Self-doubt. Clarity… Build clarity. Don’t underestimate yourself.
8. Self-confidence. Clarity… Build clarity. Don’t overestimate yourself.
9. Always in control posture. It’s ok to be nervous. It’s ok to feel bad. It’s ok to feel sad. These are human emotions. Only Allah is in control. Don’t fake control. It eats you more than it serves you.
10. “It’s my right” mindset. The world is chaotic because we are all focusing on rights. The world will be a more compassionate, joyful place to live if “it’s my right” mindset shifts to “it’s my responsibility”.

Share it with others. Share it with your loved ones. Share it with those you don’t love much.

Stay blessed. Live Awesomely.
