The morning quickie is a short session of The life we want podcast that airs every Tuesday and is aimed at self-growth through motivations and life hacks. We've been sharing it on our social media platforms for the past two weeks. Here is a copy of what was in the episode.

1. ”Actions speak louder than words, but not nearly as often.”

Thinking and doing are two different things. They go hand in hand – knowledge is useless without action,  and inconsiderate actions are likely to fail. You are what you do, not what you intend to do. Remember that after you gather all the information you need, it’s all up to the courage and taking action. Good things don’t come to those who wait; they come to those who work on meaningful goals.

2. Sometimes things have to go very wrong before they can be right

People are often afraid of making mistakes. Mistakes are on the basis of improving and succeeding after. The phoenix must burn to emerge. Failure isn’t fatal, but failure to change might be. The solution to this problem is making friends with the failure. After all, don’t forget the difference between the teacher and the student: the teacher has failed more times than the student has ever tried. The master has thousands of failed attempts behind them, but no one really thinks of that. Everyone sees just the final result – success and nothing more. When you take risks you learn that there will be times when you succeed and there will be times when you fail, and both are equally important.
