As unfortunate as it is, social media show people what they want to see, and just like we know how most people want to consume things that are actually harmful to their physical health, you should keep in mind that unless you are very selective about what you consume online, you are actually regularly being fed things that are very harmful to your mental health. #orangebook #SocialMedia #MentalHealth #ContentConsumption

In a truly great relationship, the other person knows you so well that they will regularly surprise you by pointing out things you hadn't noticed about yourself. #orangebook #relationships #SelfAwareness

People aren't scared of getting married, or investing their money, or committing to a difficult project, or relocating to a new place with better opportunities; they are actually only scared of their own judgment. Taking the jump is actually surprisingly easy when you have full confidence in your own judgment. #orangebook #SelfJudgment #commitment #confidence #judgment

If you marry well, it also becomes your most important decision in terms of well-being, personal finance, and lifelong purpose. #orangebook #marriage

Cynicism is the symptom that you are not living the life you wanted to live. Anxiety is the symptom that you are not who you wanted to be. Anger is the symptom that you are not around the people you wanted to be with. #orangebook #selfreflection #personalgrowth

Life gets better once you finally become honest with yourself and hit yourself with the painful truths: You are poor because you didn’t bother taking financial risks ten years ago; you are low-energy because you didn’t bother changing your lifestyle ten years ago; you are lonely because you didn’t bother investing in relationships with thoughtful people ten years ago; you are unattractive because you didn't bother treating yourself with attention and care ten years ago; you are insecure because you didn’t bother following through the efforts you started ten years ago; you are confused because you didn’t bother investing in your own mind ten years ago; you are angry because you didn’t bother listening to the feedback from reality ten years ago; you are unlucky because you didn’t bother thinking deeply before making your big decisions ten years ago of where to live, what to work on, and who to spend your time with. #orangebook #self-improvement #personal-growth #accountability

We have so much more in common with our parents and grandparents than we realize, and if you were lucky to be in a healthy relationship with them and learned to know them well, you eventually realized that you had actually been learning about yourself all along. #orangebook #family relationships #self-discovery

Kids don’t learn from what you say, but from who you are, and too many parents are constantly silently judging their kids, and then wonder why their kids ended up lacking in confidence and creativity, when the answer is very simple: because they spent their whole lives trying to get a positive evaluation from the very people who were only supposed to love them unconditionally, and as a result, were scared of being wrong, never took any risk, and never became who they truly wanted to be, or rather, never even got the chance to explore who they truly wanted to be. #orangebook #parenting #confidence #self-discovery

The best things in life happen offline and are not documented. The ordinary walks and laughters with your family. The long conversations in person with old friends you effortlessly trust. The satisfaction that comes with tough trainings done with peers who also value their growth as a person. It’s so easy to lose track of what you truly value, especially when you are surrounded by people who are confidently wrong. Earn your freedom online, then learn the value of being disconnected, that’s when you will start truly living your best life. #orangebook #OfflineLiving #RealConnections #MindfulDisconnection

You won't get love by chasing people, you won't get wealth by chasing money, and you won't get happy by chasing validation. #orangebook #chasing

When you have clear goals, you seek silence to focus and get things done; when you don't, you seek noise, new people, short-lived stimulation, and anything to distract yourself from the fact that you don't know what you want from life. #orangebook #goal setting #self-awareness

Most anxious people are just people who are trying to have everything under control, including other people around them, when they should instead just focus on improving themselves and have faith in the fact that we all get what we deserve in unpredictable ways. #orangebook #anxiety #selfimprovement
