Don’t Forget These in 2025: 7 Lessons People Often Learn Too Late
2 min readJan 1, 2025
- Life is Your Responsibility — People can point their finger all they want, but, in the end, whatever choices they made they made. It is them who have to live with the consequences, positive or negative. No one else is responsible.
- The Journey is the Goal — Nothing that they receive at the end will justify the means. A life lived in misery for a cause will simply put more pressure on that goal to justify that misery. This leads expectations that cannot be met and a life that cannot be lived well.
- Life is What you Make of it — Many highly rich and successful people are still suffering from Depression, Anxiety and hate their lives, while there are many that have neither that absolutely, truly love their life. ‘What’ does not matter. What matters is ‘How’ you live and approach what you have.
- Everything has a Price — Every choice, every action, every decision, every thought has a price one must pay. Therefore, no choice is innately good nor bad. It’s simply a matter of which price one would rather pay, or which reward is worth the price.
- Not everything is worth Keeping — Sometimes, letting go is the best option; especially in light of something bigger. Pride, Ego, Sleep, Relationships, Friendships. Some things are simply not worth fighting for.
