We have 3 bodies to take care of
- Physical body
  - Eat well
  - Sleep well, 7-9h a night
  - Shit everyday
  - Sports, do whatever you need to do

  - Be aware of having emotional body
  - Be around only positive people
  - Avoid people who are constantly draining your energy
  - Put a quota on how much you can complain/ feel anxious about that person
- Mental body
  - Mind always wants to think
  - Usually when thinking too much is the most unhappy time, and not thinking is happy time
  - Every morning come up with 10 ideas
  - Come up with enough ideas that the brain hurts
- Spiritual body
  - People are stuck in the past, regrets (none of that actually exists, its only in the mind)
  - (Exercise) Look at the rooftops of buildings, find the art
  - Surrender, you have no control of it (past), accept the stillness
- Body cycles through good and bad moods

Don’t attach happiness to external goals, financial success, relationships

To break the breakdown, he thought he was about to die, He loved himself
Need to love yourself
Mantra -> protect your thought
If a painful memory arises, don’t fight it, your in quick sand
Instead go to love, feel the love for yourself even if it’s a lie. Love, Rewire

Why have a purpose? It’s bad
Assumes that you have to find something to make you happy, and be unhappy until then
Choose to be happy right now
All I want to be is me

Drop customers who you don’t like
Do not be at the whim to one decision maker
After certain salary the marginal happiness decreases
It’s ok to take baby steps

When you’re time traveling then stop
Label thoughts if they are past or future to remain in present
Selling is a lot more important than negotiating. Get sales than trying to get best price and no sale happening.
Don’t sell to customers that you don’t like

How to become an idea machine
