Your mindset sets the tone for everything in your life. It's the perspective you hold towards the events happening in your life. How you experience success, failure, hurt, happiness, sadness, love, breakups, betrayal etc. All these experiences can be handled in different ways simply based on one's mindset. The Growth Mindset First of all, a growth mindset is never fixed. I've always believed:  'Life itself is a teacher. You should be able to constantly learn from experiences and finetune yourself into a better version of yourself.' A growth mindset inspires the ability to consistently think bigger; to focus on improving boundaries day by day. In order to achieve a dream, you should believe in it first. However, nothing particularly notable can be achieved without hard work. So one must not only believe but also be willing to put in the work. A large portion of the real beauty of success is the perseverance of a person to keep trying. You should keep trying, and have the stamina to not give up easily. You should believe that all of the hard work you devoted in the early days of your mission will pay off one day. Networking Networking is all about giving. I intentionally keep my circle small, because . However, it's important to make meaningful relationships. it saves me a lot of time If you are serious about getting the most out of life, never waste time!  The moment you are neither enjoying nor doing anything productive, that is what I call a waste of time. You only have one life, make it big! Wisdom If you want to be wise, only speak when it's necessary. The less you speak, the more your words matter. A fish cannot get caught when its mouth is shut. Control Your Mind The way you control your mind plays a major role in how your life will unfold.  Emotions make your mind dumb and kill logic. Don't think with emotions. When you have a problem, don't put too much energy into worrying about it. Instead, focus your thinking on resolutions, solutions, or a process for how to deal with it. When you get angry, try to be silent until the feeling passes. A moment of silence is better than regret. There's a peace in being calm. Diamonds When life is tough, just give it some time.  Remember, diamonds are created under pressure and your time to shine will come.  Don't believe things blindly. Think. Often. Have the ability to question everything. Be optimistic but avoid wishful thinking. Always live in reality. Always try new things. Experience more. Learn from your experiences. Evolve. Repeat. Try to lift people up. It will help you grow. If you can't help people at least don't hurt them. First published here.
