[00:00:00] This is Optimal Living Daily, episode 3093, how to learn from everything and
[00:00:06] everyone by Kaelin Bruce of MoneyMiniBlog.com. And I'm your narrator
[00:00:10] Justin Molick. I read you blogs every single day of the year including
[00:00:14] holidays. And with that let's get right doing the opposite, at least sometimes. How many people have you known who achieved a certain level of success
[00:01:40] to the point that they thought something was beneath them?
[00:01:43] The real estate agent sells a million dollar mansion
[00:01:46] and then three years later, when failure arises, you're prepared for it and ready to learn. I've made a habit of using a motivation paper in the mornings. This paper has a few quotes, some scripture references, but predominantly, it has reminders on it. Here's the most powerful reminder on my paper.
[00:03:00] Learn from every situation today, good or bad.
[00:03:03] No matter how I feel about it, take a lesson from it.
[00:03:07] It's true that if you're with a highly influential person, you should listen and say very little. Of course, most highly influential people are going to try
[00:04:22] to ask you questions the entire time because they'll miss the lesson. If you want to feel sorry for yourself, you'll miss the lesson. If you think life owes you something, you'll miss the lesson. If you want to blame someone else for your failures, you'll miss the lesson. Keep moving forward. Keep learning in every situation.
[00:05:41] Don't miss the lesson.
[00:05:46] You just listen to the book.
