Everything you need to escape the mediocrity spreading among us lately. Invest time in creating the “Pro” version of you.

Step out of your comfort zone at least once a day

It takes 3 weeks to build up a new habit. Why can’t we normalise stepping out of our comfort zones then? Start challenging yourself by doing at least one thing everyday that usually takes an extra amount of courage to you. Whether it’s jumping the rope for 5 minutes straight, or cooking that risky recipe, just do it. It doesn’t really matter if you fail, the win consists in the fact that you TRIED & gained knowledge by doing it.

Stop scrolling

Use wisely the limited time you can spend in this world, therefore stop gluing your eyes on that for you page, delete that app & start living.

Stop being materialistic

The sooner you realize living a wealthy life doesn’t mean owning lots of signature items, but having experienced deep, real & constructive emotions, the better you live. You’ll end up dying alone with the memory of your life, & you won’t be able to use that expensive stuff anymore. Choose wisely.

Stop smoking AND drinking

Ok, I know this is probably the hardest one. But please, replace the instant gratification of nicotine & alcohol with something constructive in order to gratify you in another way. Cook a healthy meal, read a book, tidy up your spaces (rearrange them if needed), work out, go out for a walk, chat with a friend about a deep topic. Distinguish yourself from that dumb crowd lacking self respect, TAKE CARE OF YOUR HEALTH.

Take a 30s cold shower everyday

This method is proven to boost our immune system as well as stimulating our blood circulation

Toxic ego is the enemy

Be open to dialogue & don’t be afraid to change opinion, it means that you’re able to grow and go beyond your point of view to eventually overcome it.

Be aware of the fact that everyone can teach you something

A homeless person, a child, a old man… everyone has a lesson the Universe wants you to listen to.

Be curious

Never cease to satisfy the curiosity of your inner child, search that info on the web, ask that random person in the street whatever captured your attention, follow that masterclass you always wanted to attend. Live once without regretting being curious about the unknown.

Invest into your knowledge

Nobody can take away from us our brain potential & our knowledge: read, learn a new skill, get out of your comfort zone to build a stronger version of your willpower. Remember that knowledge = power.

Move your body daily

Do whatever you want to move your body in order to raise your levels of libido, dopamine and serotonin. No need to tell you that it also increases your psycho-intellectual abilities, the body resistance, slowing down the involution of the musculoskeletal and cardiovascular system.

Eat healthy

Whether you follow the 80/20 rule or the intermittent fasting diet, remember to give your body healthy easy-to-digest foods. You’ll register an increase of energy, a less bloated stomach, & your body will surprisingly adapt to the absence of highly processed foods, & it will consequently stop craving them (at least I can guarantee that the frequency of the craving will decrease).

Get a therapist

Stop looking at the fact of getting a therapist because “you’re sick”. Therapy is such a game changing experience that shows you the most appropriate tools to make the most of your potential & live the best version of your life.

Do not listen to people who aren’t doing anything with their lives

Try to avoid people with low vibes & no ambitions, people who barely care about themselves. Their influence on you can be extremely draining & toxic. Talk to them & tell them that you’ll stop wasting time with them unless they are willing to change for themselves for the better.

Learn other languages

This suggestion is useful you wanna get in touch with specific cultures, if you want to know more about their stories & their philosophies. It can work out for your career & for your job applications as well.

Build up your own circle mindfully

“We are the sum of the 5 people we spend most of our time with”, this sentence is quite true. Surround yourself with people that give you good vibes, people that are always challenging you to bring out your best version. I can guarantee you’ll experience a long-lasting mood boost.

Learn about marketing

It’s never too late to learn something about economics, & whatever you do in your life, it’s helpful to create a second […] income

Master both soft & hard skills

Balance is the key: don’t overlook soft skills when it comes to applying for a job, the winning approach consists in mastering both the professional side & the flexible/empathetic one.

Put effort in looking better

We tend to unconsciously pay more attention to well dressed & good-looking people because they are automatically more attractive to us.

Spend a few hours a day (a week) in nature

Whatever involves nature is known to raise our levels of dopamine & serotonin. Don’t be lazy & make those daily 8k steps climbing hills, attend that yoga lesson in the park.

Practice gratitude constantly

Something that helped me overcoming tough times was constantly being grateful for both the positive & the negative things that happened to me. We only live once, & we should be aware that many other people are facing harder times out there.
