If you want to conquer the world, then you must start with yourself. Why is that? Because if you can’t conquer yourself, if you do not have the courage to face what is yours to face, if you can’t even face your fears, you won’t be able to conquer other people.

It is about you. It is not about other people. And it is about focus.

Focus on what you can do right now to make your life better, to face yourself. If you don’t yet know what to do, where to start, or how to start, you can start with the following strategies:

You can conquer your true self if you have the courage to control your emotions. If you do not want your emotions to control you, if you don’t want your emotions to take charge of your life, of your work, you must take control of your emotions.

Lilly Singh says, ‘When you need to get your hustle on, be driven by goals, not emotions.’ Emotions are great. But if you are not careful, they can ruin your life.

You can conquer your true self if you have the courage to focus on your priorities. They matter. If you do not focus on what matters to you, you are going to end up achieving nothing important.

According to Lilly Singh, ‘Humans have tendency to to overcomplicate simple things because we overthink them. But if you take a step back and remember your priorities, it becomes easier to make a decision.’

If you want to get more done in life, do not complicate things. Make things simple, but not simpler. Focus on what is important to you, on what you are trying to get done. When you do that, success is likely to happen.

You can conquer your true self if you have the courage to face your mistakes. We are human beings. Mistakes are going to happen. If you do not want to make mistakes, then you are not willing to grow. Why is that? Because you are not going to grow if you do not want to make a mistake.

Remember, a mistake is not a mistake when you learn from it. It is a mistake when you don’t learn anything from it.

If you want to grow, according to Lilly Singh, ‘Mistakes don’t exist just to make us feel bad about ourselves; they are opportunities that we should not ignore or shy away from.’ You will learn a lot from your mistakes when you see them as opportunities to grow.

And you can conquer your true self if you have the courage to love yourself. If you don’t have enough love for yourself, you won’t be able to love others. Your life is not complete without self-love. It is your life. To live it, you must love it. And to know who you really are, you must give yourself love.

Self-love means self-acceptance. To love yourself is to accept yourself, no matter what. And the choice is yours.

LIfe is full of difficulties. You can overcome them. You can live a great life. It is not going to happen overnight. You have got to be patient with yourself. And you must be willing to face what is yours to face. If not, you are not going to get anything done.

No matter what you are going through in your life, to overcome, you must face what is yours to face. Here is how:

There are things in life that you cannot control. If you want to conquer, you must prepare for what you do not know. According to Lilly Singh, ‘Not being able to control people and situations doesn’t make you powerless; it just means you have to exercise your power in a different way. If you can’t control people, then control your reaction to them. If you can’t control a situation, then prepare for it.’

She is right. If you want to create a loving life, you must focus on what you can control, not on what you cannot control. Remember, you can’t control everthing. The only thing you can control is your reaction. And the only person you can control is you.

If you want to create a great life, a powerful life, a purposeful life, you must get out of your safe zone. There is nothing there. You have been there. You have done it. And it is time for you to move on. If you do not want to move forward, situation will move you out.

It is better to do it yourself before you are forced to do it. If you want to conquer your life, yourself, in the words of Lilly Singh, ‘You have to seek out situations that make you uncomfortable and then throw yourself into them.’

How many people can really do that? Not a lot. Why is that? Because we love to stay where we already know. We love to do what we are used to. And we do not like to face what we do not know. In other words, people hate what they don’t know. But if you want to grow, you must force yourself to do things that you don’t want to do. If not, you will stop growing.

To keep growing, don’t think of obstacles as problems, but as opportunities to grow yourself. According to Lilly, ‘Think of Discomfort as currency – it’s the price you pay to learn some pretty crucial things.‘ That is true. In life, there is nothing without a price. Everything comes with a price. To win, to be successful, you must do the work. You must get your hands dirty. And you can do it. And you can conquer anything in your life.
