Life has its own rules, but it also knows how to surprise us when we least expect it. No matter what happens in your life, there are some things you can count on. There will be moments of doubt.

There will be tests of character you won’t see coming. The journey is not linear: twists, turns, and ups and downs are guaranteed.

However bleak things may seem at times — and no matter how many times life tests you — there are always ways to navigate your way back into the light and see things clearly.

The key to a successful life is to know how to navigate your way through it.

It starts with stacking a lot of truths, principles, lessons, rules and mental modes to control the trajectory.

If you want to navigate life successfully, you need to find a lot of applicable truths scattered across time.

I like what Eric Jorgenson, the author of The Almanack of Naval Ravikant said, “If you want to navigate life in an astonishingly successful way, you need to find a lot of truths. Truths are hidden all over, across time, geography, culture, and disciplines.
