In my early 20s, I let material possessions be the definition of success.
In my early 30s, it was knowledge and skills.
Now, I’ll let my values define me:
- Truth — 真
- Health — 健康
- Gratitude — 感谢
- Humility — 谦逊
- Excellence — 尽力
- Ethics — 道德
- Courage — 勇气
- Simplicity — 单纯
- Presence — 在
I used to think success is in the future once something happens,
I now know that everything I could ever desire lays in the present moment.
I used to only focus on accomplishing audacious goals,
I now know that developing great habits is way more meaningful.
Last year, I wrote a mantra to connect my body, mind, and soul.
This year, I will focus on developing habits that cultivate my values. I developed this matrix to put the above principles into action.
To a motivating year ahead!
