Life Can Be Much Broader

 "When you grow up, you tend to get told that the world is the way it is and your life is just to live your life inside the world. Try not to bash into the walls too much. Try to have a nice family life, have fun, save money. That's a very limited life. Life can be much broader once you discover one simple fact. That isn't everything around you that you call life was made up by people no smarter than you. And you can change.  You can influence it.  Once you learn that, you'11 never be the same again.

Once Learned You Can Never Be The Same Again

"When you grow up, you tend to get told that the world is the way it is and your life is just to live your life inside the world. Try not to bash into the walls too much. Try to have a nice family life, have fun, save money. That’s a very limited life.  Life can be much broader once you discover one simple fact. That is—everything around you that you call life was made up by people no smarter than you. And you can change it. You can influence it…. Once you learn that, you’ll never be the same again."

The Most Precious Resource

 "It’s really clear that the most precious resource we all have is time.”

-- Steve Jobs

In simpler terms, time is like money - you can spend it wisely or waste it. When we waste time, we can't get it back, just like when we spend money on something we don't really need, it's gone forever.

For instance, let's say you have a project to complete that's due in a week, but you keep procrastinating and end up starting it the day before it's due. You will find yourself working under pressure, stressing out, and possibly producing low-quality work. If you had used your time wisely, you could have completed the project with less stress and produced better quality work.

Another example is if you have a friend or family member who is important to you, but you don't make time for them because you're too busy. You may regret not spending time with them later on when they're no longer around.

So, the takeaway from this quote is that we should make the most of our time and spend it wisely. We should prioritize things that are important to us and make time for them. This way, we can avoid regrets later on and live a more fulfilling life.

Stop Living Someone Else Life

"Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma—which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."

Are You Living Someone Else Life
