The Essential Decalogue: 10 Insights to Enlighten Your Journey Before the Final Farewell

Hey, you awesome person! I'm so glad you're here, because I have something important to share with you. I know life can be hard sometimes, and we all need a little boost of positivity and encouragement. That's why I've compiled this list of ten things you need to hear right now. Trust me, these are not just some random clichés or platitudes. These are powerful truths that can change your perspective and inspire you to live your best life. Ready? Let's go!

1. People aren't against you, they are for themselves.

This means that you don't have to take everything personally or feel like the world is out to get you. Most people are just focused on their own goals and challenges, and they don't have the time or energy to sabotage you. Instead of seeing others as enemies or competitors, try to see them as fellow human beings who are doing their best with what they have. You might even find some allies or friends along the way.

2. Don't climb the mountain to be on the top, but to see the world from the top.

This means that you don't have to chase success or fame or money for their own sake, but for the experiences and opportunities they can bring you. The real reward of reaching your goals is not the applause or the recognition, but the growth and the learning that come with it. The view from the top is amazing, but only if you appreciate the journey that got you there.

3. You learn more from failure than from success, because failure builds character.

This means that you don't have to fear or avoid failure, but embrace it as a valuable teacher and a catalyst for change. Failure shows you what doesn't work, what you need to improve, and what you're capable of overcoming. Success is sweet, but it can also make you complacent or arrogant. Failure keeps you humble and hungry for more.

4. The most dangerous risk of all is the risk of spending your life not doing what you want on the bet that you can buy yourself the freedom to do it later.

This means that you don't have to postpone your dreams or passions for some vague future date, but pursue them now with all your heart and soul. Life is unpredictable and short, and there's no guarantee that you'll have another chance to do what you love. Don't let fear or doubt or excuses hold you back from living your true purpose.

5. Go where you are celebrated, not where you are tolerated.

This means that you don't have to settle for less than what you deserve or what makes you happy, but seek out environments and people that support and appreciate you for who you are. You are a unique and wonderful individual, and you don't need anyone's approval or validation to be yourself. Surround yourself with positive and uplifting influences that bring out the best in you.

6. The person you are going to spend the most time with is yourself, so you better make yourself interesting.

This means that you don't have to rely on external sources of entertainment or stimulation, but cultivate your own inner resources and interests. You are a fascinating and complex creature, and there's so much to discover and explore about yourself. Learn new skills, read new books, try new things, challenge yourself, have fun with yourself. You'll never be bored again.

7. If you accept your limitations, you go beyond them.

This means that you don't have to deny or hide your weaknesses or flaws, but acknowledge and work on them. You are not perfect, and that's okay. No one is. But by being honest and realistic about your areas of improvement, you can turn them into strengths or opportunities. You can also leverage your strengths and talents to compensate for your limitations. You are more than enough.

8. Daily motivation doesn't last, so does bathing, but you clean yourself daily.

This means that you don't have to expect motivation to be a constant or permanent state of mind, but a habit that needs regular maintenance and renewal. Motivation is like hygiene: it keeps you fresh and clean, but it wears off over time and needs to be reapplied every day. You can find motivation in different sources: inspirational quotes, podcasts, videos, books, music, etc. Whatever works for you, do it daily.

9. Everyone you meet is afraid of something, loves something, and has lost something.

This means that you don't have to judge or criticize others harshly, but empathize and connect with them on a human level. Everyone has their own story, their own struggles, their own joys, their own sorrows. Everyone is fighting a battle that you know nothing about. Be kind, be compassionate, be understanding. You never know how much your words or actions can affect someone else.

10.Comfort is the enemy of achievement.

This means that you don't have to stay in your comfort zone or settle for mediocrity, but push yourself out of your boundaries and challenge yourself to do more and be more. Comfort is nice, but it can also make you lazy or stagnant. Achievement requires effort, hard work, risk and sacrifice. It's not easy, but it's worth it. You'll be amazed by what you can accomplish when you step out of your comfort zone and into your potential.
