25 Laws Of Doing The Impossible
This is a short post dedicated to the book "25 Laws Of Doing The Impossible" By Patrick Bet David. The book is awesome and it's a great reminder that it's all possible, without being salesy or too corny. It's not self help. It's soul help!
THE LAWS:
- Invest in your identity: Become a better person
2. Let the right ones in: Not everybody can be a friend for you, but selected few can.
3. Protect Your Credibility Score: Keep your word. It's more valuable than gold
4. Strengthen your mind: Read great books, take great courses, listen to great people.
5. Change your way of thinking. What got you here, won't get you there.
6. Know you "why": What's your purpose?
7. Work like it's 1880: 80 Hour workweeks
8. Elevate Imagination: What if you could? What if you could do xyz?
9. Be As Curios As Possible: It comes back to reading the works of great minds and never settling
10. Break Away From Old You: Quit your bad habits, behaviours, vices, all of it! Reinvent yourself
11. Decide To Be The Chosen One: Why not you? Why not become successful? Why shouldn't you win? Why shouldn't you solve this problem?
12. Go "All In" In One Industry: It's all about focus
13. Push The Envelope: Go where others won't go
14. Have A Crusade: You are on a mission bigger than making money
15. Channel Your Obsession: It's a gift, not a curse
16. Evangelize Your Message: The greatest salesman sell a vision, an idea, not a product
17. Aim For The Moon: It's possible
18. Keep The Faith: Nothing works if you don't believe in yourself
19. Be Bold: Challenge the normal
20. Embrace Your Frustrations: Greatest solutions might come from your observations.
21. Fight Adversity Like Muhammad Ali: "I hated every minute of training, but I always said to myself: "Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion" " - Muhammad Ali
22. Let Controversy Be Your Status Quo: Conventional wisdom is worthless!!
23. Silence Your Critics: Including your inner critic! Win the war with yourself!
24. Re Charge With Challenges: Difficult goals should fuel you to go forward!
25. Have A Heart: Be courageous
I do not intend to expand on each and every one of these rules, but I hope this is a useful summary for you to start thinking about which of these laws are you following and which ones are you breaking. It's all possible.
