Wow. After a long time read something genuinely practical in self development. Not a run of the mill copy paste article. Will read it many times and act upon it. Thank you.

This has to be one of the key-moments in my life, every word that I read from this article has just fuelled me with inspiration and motivation for the betterment of myself. As someone has already mentioned, all these things that you’ve talked about are the ones we already know but constantly fail to implement, but the way you put them out is something I really liked and the best lines that I loved are ” too often we overestimate the significance of one big defining moment and underestimate the value of making a little bit of progress every single day…” this literally takes a lot of burden off ourselves and remind us to value and put emphasis on every moment in your life. All you need is a better version of yourself.

I find the comments added by readers just as rewarding as the “essay / lecture” itself. Thank you Marc and Angel and all who read “essays” in the hope of improving / bringing about understanding and acknowledgement in the present-day, mad world by beginning with ourselves!

Thank you for acknowledging me. While reading this essay I was actually thinking about the purpose of my life, the daily habits etc.. It is great that this writing remembered me to RESTART the journey.

I love this article. Although what you are saying, as one of the earlier comments pointed out, we all sort of know already, this is a great reminder to actively try to put the points into practice. It is never easy to do, but worth trying, and I guess that the more often you incorporate the ideas into your daily life, the easier it will become. Onwards and upwards!

Thank you, Marc and Angel, for this amazing piece. It was so inspiring. I love the line that talked about us allowing things to breathe and letting them be the way they are.

Wonderful essay and much shorter than reading a whole book. I read a book called the present that was written by the same person who wrote one minute manager and who moved my cheese. Basically the book was saying live in the present moment and be the best you can at whatever you are doing. And, that is the present we give ourselves.

This is EXACTLY how I felt! Because it lists only three habits, I feel like I can address all three. Just reading the introduction got my attention: “As you age you will learn to value your time,…” Because of my age, this is something that I absolutely need to do. This article may finally be the one to help me. Thank you, Marc!

In reply to Jonathan. Thank you very much, Marc & Angel. I really appreciate your work in putting forth these really valuable essays. I believe they're a really big help for people like me.

Thank you again Marc and Angel
I have been uplifted by your material for years, but today feel like I really want to change some things and take serious consistent action. Actually, as I am getting in touch with my intrinsic worth, I feel more hope and belief in making changes. What stood out for me was that on reflecting in the questions I’m aware I need to be more responsible for meeting my needs instead of staying small and thinking I shouldn’t do things for myself, but then get frustrated at others for not providing what I am not providing for myself! Thanks for these reminders and frameworks.

Precious reminders about how to live mindfully and practice gratitude. The acceptance is very hard for me but I understand how important this is and how it can be freeing and cause less stress. Being grateful for the present moment and living passionately is life changing! I’m making progress with all this, but it’s a practice.

Thank you for this post. I read AND save all your emails to go back to. For whatever reason (and I know you hear this a lot!), this message really impacted me. And you are right. Intuitively, I understand the importance of being fully present, and realizing that stepping back and letting others be who they are brings a sense of peace. There is a lot to take in with this article; I will be re-reading it a few times.

Wonderful writing Marc and Angel!! That was an absolutely thought provoking article. I really loved the second point, do every work passionately to eventually find your deep hidden passion. The passion you are waiting for so long to be discovered and come in front of you. I too believe, the distraction nowadays has become inevitable and that has perhaps more bad for us rather than good. But at the end I feel “we are responsible for our happiness” and responsibility come in knowing what is ultimately good for us.

Once again thanks for sharing this wonderful article with us. Truly love this piece.

Regards
Lalit

Thanks Marc & Angel. For me, all the points you raised are relevant. But I find the quote about when it rains, let it rain so deep. Meaning, letting things I cannot change be. It is so relieving to me right now.

What a wonderful way to stop waiting to pursue something like passion.
Passion comes from within – this couldn’t be more right.
Great inspiring article! I love it.

Such a well-composed writeup. It was like someone explaining to me one-on-one. The point that resonated the most was – Being an observer from a distance and gathering perspective. Will definitely try this.
Will read again and then answer the questions at the end to build a new habit system.

Amazing! I’ve come across multiple “3 step” articles while scrolling my email or news. I normally keep moving, but this one caught my attention. I think it’s confirmation. I’ve been telling myself to shift, do something greater. I struggle with what to do. I struggle with who do I think I am to do something bigger? Who wants to hear/see anything I have to contribute? The section on not treating today as just “another day” ignites me to do something. Take each day as it comes. Don’t force what’s coming. Be present for it. Thanks for the confirmation.

This essay is just amazing! I was scrolling my news feed randomly and I saw this article and clicked on it. And it felt like I was reading a great self development book but in a really less amount of time which is great. All three points resonate in a big way.
