Live Your Life with Guts: Embrace the Journey on Your Terms
Questioning the “Experts”
Advice is often perceived as a collection of experiences, knowledge, or perspectives from individuals leading entirely distinct lives, possessing diverse backgrounds and differing from your own. But why should we believe that someone else knows better than ourselves? It is intriguing to witness individuals dispensing advice as if they possess all-encompassing wisdom and have encountered every possible scenario. They offer guidance on various topics, ranging from the ideal subjects to study, the best companies to work for, and even the most suitable partners. Observing these self-proclaimed "experts" can be rather amusing.
It is both fascinating and disheartening to observe how readily individuals succumb to these well-intentioned suggestions. They find themselves inundated with a barrage of information, feeling overwhelmed and paralyzed by the inability to make a decision. Fear insidiously creeps in, hijacking their thoughts with negativity. Suddenly, everything appears destined for failure, as if governed by the unforgiving law of attraction. This relentless cycle leaves us feeling trapped and plagued by uncertainty.
Embrace Experiences, Learn from Mistakes
I've come across numerous people seeking advice, only to find themselves in the same spot as before. But what if we took a different approach? What if we went out and tried things ourselves? After all, it's our life, and nobody succeeds without making mistakes and learning from them. I have personally tried this approach, taking a leap of faith, and it has led me to meet amazing people, work for top companies, and embark on a journey of self-discovery. I now have experiences I can learn from, teach, and share with others.
If you haven't made mistakes, have you truly lived? Life isn't just about staying in bed, avoiding any challenges or risks. It's about making adjustments along the way and being open to unexpected opportunities that hold deeper meaning for us. Sure, it's comfortable to stay in our cozy beds, free from any worries or contemplation. But that's not where the magic happens. Life is a journey of growth, and mistakes are our greatest teachers. They shape us, mold us, and help us become better versions of ourselves.
YOLO: You Only Live Once
WE ALL ONLY LIVE ONCE. This realization should ignite a fire within us to live life on our terms, with courage and determination. It's not about seeking approval or conforming to societal expectations; it's about embracing our unique journey and making the most of it.

So, the next time someone tries to give you advice, pause for a moment. Reflect on whether their words align with your own desires and aspirations. Remember that the path they suggest may not be the right one for you. Trust your instincts, take risks, and be willing to learn from your mistakes. It's through these experiences that we truly live and grow. Don't let fear hold you back from pursuing your dreams. Embrace the unknown, welcome the challenges, and savor every moment of this beautiful journey called life.
And above all, have the guts to live life on your own terms.
