Why keep a World Map?

Whenever you fail, look at the World Map and realize how insignificant your failure is. The world is so big that your biggest embarrassments mean nothing to it.

2. Stay Humble

3. Open-Minded

Looking at the world map, makes you realize that you only know a handful of the people on this planet. There is a lot more to human behavior you don’t know. So, stop generalizing things like Men are like this, Women do this, Bosses are like that, etc.

4. Growth Mindset

Try to create a circle around the people, you are impacting with your life. You will understand that even an insignificant person in the world can impact a significant size of the world. Measure your life’s worth in the lives you touch.

The earth doesn’t spin backward and the time doesn’t turn around they keep moving forward. No matter how bad your past was, it has passed and the only thing you can control is the present.

Call to Action: Buy/Print/Draw a world Map and Keep it near your desk.
