What are the biggest lessons you have learned in your life? In this exercise, I want you to take an inventory of your life lessons up to now.

You will think about the most valuable 10 lessons you have learned in your life.

At the end of the day, what matters is how you think of your life, your accomplishments, your own insights, and your learning. It is important to stop and listen to your intuition and opinions about what is significant. For example, you need to carve and walk your own path in life instead of living your life based on peer pressure or expectations of others.

To provide you some ideas and inspiration, I have also done this exercise. In the poster below, you can see the top 10 lessons I have learned in my life. Here are these lessons:

Whatever you set your eyes to, you can achieve it in your life — if you put enough hard work consistently, patiently, and persistently over time. Take good care of yourself, your body, your health, your relationships, and beloved ones, your family, and your mental well-being. Invest in yourself, your learning, your skills, and your development every day. Be relentlessly curious and read beyond disciplines, borders, or areas. Reclaim your childhood openness, creativity, and imagination. Use the best of your talents and strengths. Schedule time in your calendar to create your creative assets, long term projects, and career investments. Be your weird self, defy expectations, and pressures to conform. Do not follow crowds. Carve your own original path in your life. Rise above mediocrity. Do not overthink and take immediate action on things that are important for you. Take risks and experiment freely. Give yourself lots of opportunities for failure. Scare yourself, and challenge yourself every day. Get out of your comfort zone and seek adventures, novelty, and variety. Have fun. Enjoy life. Design and create the life that you want. Establish your own system of creativity, productivity, and wealth.
