1. Don’t Change the World, Before You First Change Yourself.
I was just like you. Excited, biting at the bit to go out and do my big part.
But being a leader. Actually transforming systems, structures, fighting against the evil in this world - this is a lonely, painful, heartbreaking journey. It’s a path strewn with the dead bodies of those who started out starry-eyed, ambitious, swearing that the bullets would never kill them.
So if you do not know yourself. If you can’t trust yourself. If you haven’t changed. If your worth is based on good grades, accolades, praise, anything external – than as quickly as love for yourself came from success, hate, just might as easily come from failure.
