1. Happiness is a journey, not a destination - Finding the right balance between contentment and ambition is crucial for a happy life. Take life one day at a time yet don't lose sight of the future. It's all about the balance.
2. What goes around comes around - All your actions, voluntary or involuntary, have reactions that will find it's way to come back to you in some form or the other, good or bad.
3. We always have a choice! - "Whatever comes our way, whatever battle we have raging inside us, we always have a choice. It's the choices that make us who we are, and we can always choose to do what's right" - Spider-Man(2002)
4. Ego hinders growth - There is no bigger hinderance to growth than your own ego. Your emotional side will always go on the defensive at first whenever challenged. You have to let your guard down and question yourself, "Is there something I can do better here?"
5. Be authentic - Being authentic is a conscious decision you make every single day. Identify your strengths and accept your imperfections. Improve and strive to provide value daily.
