11 Productive things every youth must do to succeed in life

 
Below are eleven things you must do as a youth to be productive in life
#1 Serve God: This is the best time to serve your God. Serve him, and always allow Him to lead you in all your ways because He is the only that cannot mislead you.
#2 Know Your Purpose:  One way to find your purpose is to ask yourself- what is that one activity or a group of activities that make you feel vibrant, vital and alive about your existence.
#3 Be an Observer of life: We have the unique ‘power to observe our lives’ and decide to do more of what we want to do, and less of what we do not want to do. It is very important to discover our purpose, vision, mission in life if we want to get the most out of life and to realise our true potential during our lifetimes.
#4 Have Big Goals in Life: Have big goals for your life. Set goals for yourself in the area of health, wealth, relationships and service.
#5 Inspire yourself everyday: Motivation is not a vaccination that you take it once and you are done for life. You need to motivate yourself daily. Motivation is like a perfume you should put on yourself every day. When you are inspired you will not mind the challenges life throws at you. You will feel empowered to act on your dreams.
#6 Be a Reader: Every problem that you ever faced in life or will face in life has been conquered by someone else. The solution to these problems has been documented in some book.
#7 Be Yourself: You just have one life make sure you do not waste a single moment of your time living someone else’s life or dreams. Love others but make sure no one loves you more than you love yourself.
#8 Health: Keep yourself mentally and physically fit. Make sure your work out for a minimum of 30 minutes every day and meditate for 20 minutes every day. Physical work-out builds your muscle mass and keeps your metabolism in a peak state. Meditation is the internal bathing of the body. Exercising is the best health insurance you can take. Remember people who do not make time for health eventually make time for illness.
#9 Take Action: All goals fail without action. Fall in love with taking action and the rewards will take care of themselves.
#10 Develop excellent relationships and a powerful network: A loser in the company of a loser does not feel like a loser. An immoral person in the company of an immoral person does not feel his immorality. This is the reason you should surround yourself with people who are better than you. Surround yourself with people who are achievers.
#11 Serve People: Your success is measured by the size of the contribution you make to the world. Only human beings can go beyond themselves and serve the humanity. Treat the entire world like your family. Share your happiness with people and help them in overcoming their sorrows and weaknesses. A good life is a life of service.
