Ditch college and be lazy! π
Hey Reader,
β
Hope you had an awesome week.
β

β
I'd love to know your thoughts.

βForgive and Accept Yourself For Being Fully Humanβ
Part of being human means sometimes we are prone to turn on ourselves or feel like we are falling short.
β
This happens in countless situations: we disappoint a friend or family member, we lose our temper in an argument with our partner, don't get that job we wanted, fall off from our workout routine, go on a sugar binge, just miss in reaching one of our goals, etc.
β
When things go "wrong" in life, there is a deep conditioning within us to affix this sense of "wrongness" to ourselves.

β
If you can resist complaining and boring people with your troubles,

β
If you can understand when loved ones are too busy to give you time,
β
If you can overlook when people take things out on you when, through no fault of yours, something goes wrong,
β
If you can take criticism and blame without resentment,
β
If you can face the world without lies and deceit,
β
If you can conquer tension without medical help,
β
If you can relax without liquor,
β
If you can sleep without the aid of drugs,
β
If you can do all these things, then you probably are...

β
And that no one needs to go to college anymore. β
β
He doubled down his claim by issuing a public challenge to Harvard University betting one million dollars that Mindvalley for under $500 a year, can provide a better education to any human being, anywhere, than Harvard.
β
βIt was pretty bad-ass!
