Success: Setting an achievable goal based on your abilities (and slightly beyond) and reaching it.

1. Sleep less and wake up early.
2. Call your girlfriend and break up.
3. Quit smoking.
4. Quit social media.
5. Stop following the news.
6. Give up salt, sugar, flour, oil, tea, and even coffee. Eat only salad for a few meals.
7. Give up music. Any other media as well.
8. Be honest with yourself. Listen to that inner voice that constantly spits at you.
9. Scold yourself but don’t grieve. Hate yourself and work in a way that pushes your limits.
10. After completing steps 8 and 9, try to enjoy life and be kind to your new version of yourself.
11. Exercise, brush your teeth, wear perfume, and dress well. Keep your hair tidy.
12. Let go of your friends. Before that, accept that you have none.
13. Be grateful for all the effort your parents have made for you and express that gratitude.
14. Read books. First, learn how to read books and before that, learn how to learn.
15. Walk. Alone and without your phone.
16. Think about your goal once more and make sure it’s worth reaching. If it is, write this list down and follow it. If not, let it go and set a new goal.

Note:
Do all these things at the same time. For a week or two, you may feel paralyzed, but after that, you’ll move forward. The important thing is not to give up. If you do, so be it. At least you’ll understand why you weren’t succeeding and the wall wasn’t crooked.
