 Your past is a meaning. Your past is story. How you frame that story will largely impact your future self. 

 How we handle pain and confusion largely dictates who our future self becomes. If you allow the pain of life to swallow you, then your primary goals become to numb yourself  through addictions and distractions because your unwilling to face and transform those emotions.  

 When I notice I lack motivation or desire for something I know I need to do. I write out two scenarios. One list is how my lazy and selfish inaction will affect the life later. The other list is how my discipline actions would affect the future if I excuse the well.

 Be polite, Smile. Don't lie. Take turns. Help each other. Share. Play fairly. Keep your cool. Be patient. Don't steal. Be merciful. Do no harm. Be a team player. Don't overreact. Work hard, Pull your weight. Stop complaining. Clean up after yourself. Don't spend more money than you make. Don't hate. Don't gossip. Don't be nosy. Respect people space.

  Helping others in their journey is what will help you create genuine relationships. Gather information in your circle of acquaintances, and use the ask method to amplify relationships. Using the RASA method can help you become a better listener.

  Prioritize your activities and give your most precious resources to the most important things on your list. Train your mind and body to adopt healthier habits and automate them throughout your day. Give yourself time to be curious, creative and explore areas outside your usual environment.

  Emotional intelligence rests on self-awareness and self-regulation. A high EQ makes you healthier and more successful. You can boost your EQ by mirroring other people’s body language and thinking optimistically.
