10 Things You Need To Understand




  1. I don’t work for you. Don’t tell me what to do. Nothing you say has power over me. I decide what I want to do and how I want to live. You don’t get to tell me what I should do so don’t do it.
  1. I don’t owe you anything. If you think I do, you’re wrong. I don’t owe anyone anything. If that’s a problem for you then don’t come near me.
  1. I don’t care what you do. Do whatever you want. That’s not up to me, I don’t want to know unless I ask. If I don’t ask, assume I don’t want to know. Don’t tell me.
  1. Nobody cares. And they never will. No matter what. You have to do something really special for people to care. And even then, they’ll probably stop caring soon. You need to continuously do amazing if you want people to care in any way.
  1. Nobody’s going to help you. If you’re waiting for that, stop, because that’s not productive. You need to do something if you think there’s a problem. Don’t rely on anyone to do anything for you.
  1. Figure it out. If you can’t, do whatever you need to until you do. There’s no reason for you not to figure it out. Everyone else is, you can too. Just do it.
  1. Get over it. Nobody cares, so just get over it. Who are you going to complain to for the rest of your life? Odds are those people will leave if you don’t stop. Nobody likes someone who doesn’t get over it.
  1. It’s not about you. It never was. Stop making it about you always. You’re not living a real life if it always has to be about you.
  1. Don’t trust strangers. Don’t trust me. You don’t know me. You shouldn’t listen to anything on this list.
  1. Try your best. Just use your best judgement when doing things. If you don’t think you’re going to get results that were not thought about.
