Reinvent Yourself

by James Altucher

You have to ask good questions. “What can I do to improve?” or “How can I find a better job?” or “How can I be grateful that I lost this job?”

Because inside of every problem is the seed of a “difficult gratitude problem” and it always improves your life to solve those problems.

Leave the future business for the possibility business and the world will get infinitely larger.

It’s this dance of certainty and uncertainty that makes us human and we often lean too much one way or the other. But if you did that on the dance floor, you’d fall over.

What does your “good enough” day look like? What’s one thing that moves you past that?

give yourself time in your life to wonder what is possible and to make even the slightest moves in that direction.

If you ask every day, “How did I help people today?” then you will have more traffic and money than you could have imagined.

Too many people say, “I have an idea. Now I need funding.” Don’t do that anymore. Stop it! Say instead, “I’m already doing this. Here are the 10 or 20 things I’ve done so far. Here are the results. Are you in?”

Contentment is every day: *Improving your relationships *Improving your competence in something you love *Improving your freedom
