There are three stages of life. Stage one is childhood when people focus only on their desires and goals without fear of failure. Stage two begins when people start caring about how others judge their actions, focusing more on attention than outcomes. Most people remain in stage two their whole lives. Stage three is when people reject worrying about others' opinions and focus only on goals that are important to themselves, measuring success based on their own progress rather than others' views. Making the transition to stage three is difficult but allows for great achievement by combining curiosity and skills without restraints.

1. What
Stage Of
Life Are
You?

2. There's three stages of life.

3. But unfortunately, most of us get stuck
in stage two.

4. Stage One is when we're kids.

5. Little kids.

6. We don't care about much except
what we've got our eye on.

7. We want something, we don't stop
until we get it.

8. The concept of "failure" doesn't exist.

9. We just keep doing stuff until we get
what we want.

10. Stage Two is when we start to become
aware that others will judge us based
on our actions.

11. Some of our actions get us good
attention, which we like.

12. Some of our actions get us negative
attention, which we fear.

13. Suddenly we lose sight of what we
want, and start focusing instead on the
attention our actions will bring us,
rather than the outcome.

14. This lasts through childhood, and for
most people, their entire adult lives.

15. School, work, social life, everything.

16. But there is a third state.

17. Where we shrug off that worry about
what others think.

18. When we've got strong goals that are
important to US, not important to
THEM.

19. So we start to measure our results not
based on what THEY think, but
whether or not our actions get us
closer to what WE want.

20. Making this transition isn't easy.

21. Most people don't like it when you do.

22. Most people are terrified of living in a
world where their results are based
ONLY on their actions.

23. Which is why when people see you
behaving like this, they'll try and pull
you back.

24. Not consciously of course, but because
your actions make them
uncomfortable.

25. Maybe you want to try something
new, just for the fun of it.

26. And they say something like, "Yea, but
what if somebody sees us? What will
people think?"

27. And since we're only start to
rediscover ourselves, it's hard to argue
with this logic.

28. But if you want to achieve a life of
greatness, you've got to.

29. You've got to break free from the
safety and comfort of Stage Two, and
move onto Stage Three.

30. Most people are too terrified to even
think about this.

31. What about you?

32. Once you get to Stage Three,
anything's possible. You'll be
combining childlike curiosity with adult
skills, power, and resources.

33. What will YOU accomplish?
