Embrace reality and deal with it.

There is nothing more important than understanding reality and learning how to deal with it. Our environment is like a game, and we are characters in this game. In order to win, you must understand the rules of the game well.

Instructions

  1. Imagine that life is a game with problems like puzzles to solve.
    For each solved puzzle you get gems—this is a representation of your decision-making skills.

  2. Only act on your emotions when they align with the logic of your game.
    Emotions that come can help you or hurt you in your game.

  3. Be a hyperrealist.
    Have dreams, but choose your dreams wisely. This is almost always true: Dreams + reality + determination = a successful life.

  4. Be radically open-minded and radically transparent.
    This will accelerate your learning process.

  5. Don’t let fears of what others think of you to stand in your way.
    Becoming radically transparent is like becoming a public speaker: It’s awkward at the beginning, but the more you do it, the more comfortable you are with it.

  6. Weigh second- and third-order consequences.
    Very often, the first-order consequences are the temptations that cost us what we really want. For example, exercise is painful and time-consuming as a first-order consequence, but it’s desirable as a second-order consequence.

Insights

Remember that in school, failure was a terrible thing but in real life, failure is essential to learn things fast. Use a term called "amor fati" which means to love your life/fate with all that throws in your way. This is essential to be able to live life in offensive mode.
