A great example is Will MacAskill, one of the pioneers of this movement...

We can’t eliminate the negativity within us, it’s always there, and we have to learn to deal with it. We are the captains of our souls and there will be times when we’ll have to navigate through the high seas and the storms that come our way. We have to take charge and fight our inner demons. It’s a constant fight and it’s vital that we cultivate self-mastery to lead a better, wholesome, happy, an...

Abundance is not about seeking and acquiring more. It’s much easier to simply change our mind and our perspective. Oftentimes, tapping into the abundance mindset is all about tinkering with our consumption. We don’t necessarily need more than what we already have, and for the things that we already have, we can consume them less with better intention so that their longevity gets extended. Less can...

Panicking won’t solve our problems. It won’t make our current circumstances any better. In fact, it will only create more danger and prevent us from showing up as the best versions of ourselves. It will limit our capabilities and impair our resolve and our vision to create a better life for ourselves and our loved ones. It’ll rob us of our inner confidence and stop us from finding new opportunitie...

We all have challenging times in our lives and we have two options — either we can feel disempowered and slip into the victim mindset or instead take charge, roll up our sleeves and work towards finding a solution.

It’s best not to label something as good or bad, and just take it as it comes without judging it or getting attached to it. Cultivating detachment and taking the middle ground is what helps us move forward in this journey of life.

The wisest amongst us know that they have no control over external things. They can’t control their luck and fortune. They can’t prevent a catastrophe or calamity from happening. Instead, they take responsibility for themselves and hone their respond-ability. They know they might have no control over what happens to them in their life, but they are in charge of how they respond to it. If they endu...

Living a life of purpose has been linked with longer and happier lives. Studies have shown that losing purpose can have detrimental effects on a person’s well being and overall life.
