Ultimately, purpose is built, not found.
Small steps lead to a meaningful life.
Now, that's a wrap!

6/ Living a larger life means action.
Dr Hollis’s motto is simple:
“Shut up, suit up, show up.”
Stop complaining.
Prepare for challenges.
And take action, even when it’s uncomfortable.
Small, consistent steps lead to big transformations.

5/ “Life is suffering.”
This isn’t pessimistic.
It’s the fact of life.
The question is: What will you do with it?
🔹 Suffering reveals tasks you must face.
🔹 Depression might ask you to realign.
🔹 Anxiety might require confronting fears.
Growth happens when you do the hard work.

4/ Daily reflection prevents crisis
Most people avoid self-reflection until they hit rock bottom.
But it doesn’t have to be that way.
Dr Hollis recommends 15m of daily journaling, meditating, or exploring your dreams.
Consistent reflection leads to clarity.
And fewer crises.

3/ Pain is a teacher
Pain—whether depression, anxiety, or loss—isn’t just something to fix.
It’s a signal.
Your psyche is asking you to realign.
Growth starts with listening.
Ask yourself:
🔹What is this pain trying to tell me? |
🔹 What needs to change?

2/ Our Lives comes in two halves
The first half?
We are usually living for others— our career, family, societal roles.
The second half?
This is when we start to ask:
What does my soul want to express?
Do:
🔹 Shift towards what truly fulfils you
🔹 Ask: What makes me feel alive?

1/ Unconscious patterns shape us
We often act out of habits we don’t fully understand.
These patterns override our conscious intentions
And steer us back to the same mistakes.
Do:
🔹 Reflect on your recurring behaviors
🔹 Ask: What might be driving them?

10/ Create order in your environment
When your thoughts feel chaotic, organizing your space can help calm your mind.
Decluttering your desk, making a to-do list, or even creating a small ritual can restore a sense of control, bringing peace to both your environment and your thoughts.

9/ Mental Time travel
Ask yourself, “Will this matter in a month? A year?”
Most problems lose significance over time.
Reminding yourself of this helps reduce emotional intensity and focus on the bigger picture.
Problems feel smaller when viewed through a future lens.

8/ Reinterpret stress
A racing heart or sweaty palms aren’t necessarily signs of fear—they’re signs your body is ready to perform.
Tell yourself, “This energy means I’m prepared to succeed.”
Shifting how you see stress can turn anxiety into excitement and improve performance.

7/ Reframe the issue as a challenge
Rather than seeing a problem as a threat, view it as a chance to grow.
For example, before a nerve-wracking event.
Remind yourself, “This is an opportunity to build resilience and skills.”
Reframing fear as growth boosts confidence and motivation.
