Default Top Three Things You've Learned From Steve

We've done the favorite quotes thread, but I haven't seen this one yet. Put the top three things you've learned from Steve's articles here (and a link to the article/post if you want). I'll start it off.

1. Life (and your goals) should be fun and exciting. They should not be an overwhelming, uncomfortable, difficult struggle. If things are too hard and you want to quit, then maybe you should take a step back and see if there's a different way to tackle things. I've come across this theme in a number of places, but most recently in the Wake Up Without Being Groggy article (http://www.stevepavlina.com/blog/200...totally-alert/)

2. You can't control what other people do, so do what you think is right, and leave their (re)actions to them. This was incredibly eye-opening to me and I'm still finding new areas of my life where this comes into play. http://www.stevepavlina.com/blog/200...idity-honesty/
This article hits on it too (http://www.stevepavlina.com/blog/200...awareness-gap/)

3. It's OK to make money. This is somewhat different from what I heard growing up, but my beliefs were starting to change when I found Steve's site, and have changed even more since then. He's written about this in a few articles, but here are my favorites http://www.stevepavlina.com/blog/200...y-consciously/ and http://www.stevepavlina.com/blog/200...a-millionaire/

What about yours?
