Question to Bree: What's this obsession with self-improvement?

-

What's this obsession with self improvement?

If you're not improving yourself every single day, then what are you doing?

Why are you living?

Are you living?

What is your end goal? 

What is your main purpose in life?

Why do you live?


I want to be the best version of myself.

I want to not be the best person in the room but the hardest worker in the room.

I want to show other people that you don't have to be born rich. 

You can get rich by outworking people.

You can get rich by working on yourself. Discovering what you love. Discovering what you can give to others.

You can be rich. Monetarily rich. But not just that rich. 

Rich in life. Rich in purpose. Rich in positivity.

I don't want to be one of the many soulless people I see on the trains or in the buses. Yes, maybe when they're at work, they're living their purpose. But off work, they're zombies. They give so much at work, they've lost their lives. Who are they without work?

I want me to be the same me at work or after work. I want people to know me not because of my job title or my career. I want to be known for my eulogy traits. Like what Ed Mylett said. 

He went to one of his daughter's friend's Mom's funeral and she's a real capable woman at work but nobody was talking about that. Everybody was talking about how great a mother she was. 

What do you want people to say at your funeral?

I want people to say I'm kind, I radiate light, I love people. I give value everywhere I go. 

I want people to continue talking about me even when I'm dead. But in a good way. Where my work will continue to inspire people. Or make someone go, "This woman is truly inspiring. She built her way up, she brought people with her along the way. I wish I knew her."

How do you want to be remembered at the end?

I'm a billionaire

Was feeling a little poor after paying off two big ticket items. Went grocery shopping with my boyfriend and this is what we saw. Ahead of us in the queue was an old man. He held a white plastic bag with 2 packets of biscuits inside. He flicked the receipt as he waited in line. He was going to exchange the items. In the basket that he's now placed at the conveyor belt at the cashier was 3 loaves of bread. The cashier scanned the 3 loaves of bread. Isn't it 3 for $3.30? I saw the sign there 3 for $3.30. Cashier lady: No, that's not the sign for that one, the 3 for $3.30 is the small ones. Is it? But the sign there put 3 for $3.30. Next time you need to place one staff there to tell people which one is 3 for $3.30. Cashier lady: So you still want the bread? No, not 3 for $3.30 then never mind, he sighed as he pulled his trolley that was overflown with plastic bags of items which made his home and walked away. ): Our grocery items amounted to $36.65. I used a $10 Fairprice vou

2024 First post

You’ve got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don’t settle. - Steve Jobs' 2005 Stamford Commencement Address --- I'm enjoying where I am and what I do. I hope you find what you love in 2024. Don't settle. Happy 2024!

What is your value?

-
Do you ever stop and wonder how much you value you? Your time, your energy, access to you. Do you give it away freely? Anybody and anything has access to you. Or do you have set boundaries? "Not everybody can be a friend, I only build meaningful connections with people who seek growth and improvement." When you start to put a value to your time, example $200 per hour. You'll cut out everything and everyone that is not worth $200. Brutal.  But we all have an infinite amount of time in a day. Time for sleeping, having meals, making progress, keeping healthy, reading, upgrading ourselves and writing.  Whenever you spend time on one thing, you're taking time away from other things.  How you spend your time is how you live your life. How do you value you ?
