“Ordinary people seek entertainment. Extraordinary people seek education and learning.” -Benjamin Hardy
Most people have replaced achieving their life dreams and goals with TV, partying, and social media.
Benjamin Hardy once said, “Entertainment and distraction is the enemy of creation and learning. They will keep you in mediocrity.”
If you don’t want to end up living a life of mediocrity, focus on learning and education. It’s the fastest way to become extraordinary, wealthy, and successful.
“Your level of success will rarely exceed your level of personal development, because success is something you attract by the person you become.” -Hal Elrod
“The extent of the struggle determines the extent of the growth.”
You are defined by what you’re willing to struggle for.
Renowned motivational speaker Jim Rohn once said the most successful people in the world are always lifelong learners. They fully understand that their level of education directly determines their quality of life.
“Formal education makes a living, but self-education makes a fortune,” Rohn explained.
If you don’t want to end up with regret on your death-bed, choose self-education over entertainment.
“You’ve got to wake up every morning with determination if you’re going to go to bed with satisfaction.” George Larimer
Every day, millions of people attract mediocre opportunities into their lives — jobs, time investments, dating partners, etc. — not realizing they are attracting exactly who they are!
“Every next level of your life will demand a different you.” -Leonardo DiCaprio
Like an egg, you’ll either progress into a new version of yourself, or go rotten. There is no other way.
Seth Godin once said, “The problem is that our culture has engaged in a Faustian bargain, in which we trade our genius and artistry for apparent stability.”
“The goal of life is not to relax on the beach, sipping mojitos all day. The purpose is to find something you love that adds value to the world.” -Ben Foley
Benjamin Hardy put it this way: “Success is continuously improving who you are, how you live, how you serve, and how you relate.”
James Altucher once said, “Every day, check these 4 boxes: Have I improved 1% on physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health?”
Todd Brison wisely said, “The more bold you are, the more rejection you’ll experience.”
You need to invest in yourself and your future.
“Every skill you acquire doubles your odds of success.” -Scott Adams
“Who you are is a result of who you were, but where you end up depends entirely on who you choose to be from this moment forward.” -Hal Elrod
Most people live their lives on other people’s terms. Their days are spent working on other people’s goals and following the rules of someone else.
Prioritize learning. Invest in self-education.
