Ten things I learned in 2009

To keep developing you have to keep learning. Here’s ten things I learned this year:

  1. Even the nicest people can have ulterior motives
  2. Podcasts are part of the beauty of the internet
  3. People desperately crave gratitude, respect and love
  4. You have to follow your gut when your head doesn’t know what to do
  5. It’s never as bad as you think it is
  6. You will learn more about life through watching your children than through anything else
  7. People are blinded by faith
  8. Rediscovering bands from your youth is an amazing experience
  9. You have to be prepared to say “I was wrong”
  10. Smiling more often makes you happier

What did you learn this year?

May 2010 be an awesome year for you. Thank you for reading.

    You know, I didn’t and usually don’t sit back and ponder on what I have learned on years past but I can give a couple of insights into some things I have learned here in Thailand while my mind has been beautifully unburdened.

    1. The worst thing that you can have in your heart is fear. People with good hearts will sense your fear and back away, people with bad hearts will sense it and see an opportunity. If ever you wanted your life to be the opposite of everything that you hoped it would be, then being afraid is the straight line to making that happen.

    2. The world is a mirror. When you feel bitter, indifferent, uncompassionate, you will see this all around you. When you feel free, unburdened, happy, beauty will pop up everywhere.

    … just a couple for now.
