Ep#30 – Three Mindsets That Have Changed My Life
1. Make a Giant Difference For People
I was actually 12. I remember that because it was my first year of scout camp, and I did the whole week with a cast on my right arm! The metacarpal bone that I fractured was right over my palm and it affected my whole hand (and arm)
Empathic design is huge
Knew what they could provide
Listened
Spoke
I want to provide content that makes a difference for people
“People may not remember what you said, or what you did, but they will remember how you made them feel.”
“I want to do everything that I possibly can to make someone’s life better.”
You can help someone just by being around them. People can get a vibe just from talking to you.
Starting a friendship with the person knowing that you truly care about them is such a good way to start one out.
Sometimes people are already doing everything that they can possibly do and so being able to help them out in a small way is hugely satisfying and it truly helps them out. Really small things like grabbing something on a high shelf for someone go a very long way. It makes the world a better place.
Making Special Memories
People will mostly have those memories of you and those feelings that are tied to those memories.
When you’re going
This is not easy but life isn’t easy but it can be extremely joyful
Over time the memories get more and more precious.
Playing Smash Bros.
This was a core memory
Be spontaneous, but not reckless.
My last semester was Fall 2019, not Winter 2020.
Learn Every Day
Everything I’ve learned there I’ve tried to put into my life.
Learn something from every job that you do.
You can learn something new from someone and anyone.
I’ve learned so much because I’ve learned it over time.
If you can apply one thing to another thing that is very powerful.
It’s so important that you get to know yourself. One of the best ways to get to know myself is pushing myself and trying things and being patient with myself.
Things That Have Helped Me Learn
Journaling
Prayer
Talking with family members - these all give me perspective and light that I need to help me turn on my own light.
Be willing to get help from others.
