Painful Truths in Life You Have To Learn By Yourself


Your bullies will never stop bulling you in life until you hurt them

No body cares about  you as a person, only what you can do for them

You have to appear as though you are the lamb, but be the serpent behind it

To be merciful to your enemies is to be unkind to yourself

You only ever truly know somebody, when you fight them, you only truly know yourself when you fight.

Your success is many other people’s failure

If you never learn some form of martial arts, the day somebody breaks into your home will be the worst day of your life

Ignoring your physical health will eventually catch up to you

• Never be willing to lose something or anything easily that is  worth fighting for.

Your most important asset is your health, once that goes everything else goes away from you.

You are 99.99999% ignorant about everything and this is an understatement.

Progress in life happens little by little

Making money is easy, keeping money that is where the real challenge is.

It is much easier to attain and achieve than it is to maintain

The worst kind of vice is advice

Sometimes you are the only one who has the right answer

Everybody wants to succeed, usually this means everybody wants you to fail as well.

The better you look the worse those around you look, this is why it is cold and very lonely at the top for successful people.

Better you meet a life partner when you still poor than when you are already rich.

Some drugs are addictive, some drugs make you violent and some drugs can turn into a Zombie.

Not all drugs are good, some of them are great.

Enjoy life, however, best you can, it passes in a blink of an eye, time goes and goes and goes.

• The people you love and trust most will most likely be the ones to betray and stab you in the back. Watch your company.

• Misery loves company.. watch the  people you sell your problems to when you are sad or down. Most people don't really care. 99% of the people may actually be happy you are in mess.

The problem is, you think you have time. But you don't.

• Time does not heal our sorrows or corrects our mistakes in life. It reveals it. Be careful how you treat and use your time.

• A true friend or partner is the one who knows all your secrets and flaws but still pushes to help you  succeed. Who is in your circle?

• Life appears greener on the other side when you are busy looking at it from other people's windows instead of yours. Focus on your life.

• Kindness is the only human act that returns to you kindly and in good measure if you practice it.

• We can never run away from death or God's judgement at the end. Everything we value here on earth will mean nothing to us one day. Do not look down on anyone.

An Attitude Of Gratitude

To have an attitude of gratitude is the greatest virtue anyone  can have. Because it shows that you are content with the little you have and a happy expectation of all you are yet to have and enjoy in life. If you really want your life to change, then you need to add the habit of  gratitude. I realised that our generation of today take the power of being grateful for granted. Because we are a generation that is burnt on having more and more everyday, we quickly lose sight of the important things we already have that is keeping our life afloat at this moment. It's almost as if each one of us is in competition with one another when it's not supposed to be so. I was born with a disability from birth, an advanced form of poliomyelitis. I had twisted hands and legs as a child so I was only able to crawl on the floor. That was my only way to move. I hated that and myself so much because I wanted to walk just like everybody else. I was consumed so much by hate and ingratitude ...

Be a Generational Thinker

One of the greatest books I have ever read is Long Walk To Freedom by Nelson Mandela. In his book he talks about the importance of leadership through sacrifice and having a sense of responsibility to develop others as much as yourself. He is seen as an icon, a leader and a symbol of peace and inspiration, not just to his dear nation of South Africa but to the whole world. But let's ask ourselves here, what really made  Nelson Mandela such a celebrated person around the world???  Sacrifice !!!! His selfless sacrifice and desire to see white and black south Africans live in harmony together in the era of Apartheid took him to prison for 27 years. Even after his release from prison in 1990, he worked together with his haters and political opponents in the spirit of unity so that a nation which was once  divided and segregated white, black people, rich and poor people, educated and uneducated can live together as one people for the sake of his generation and generations y...
