“I have a simple philosophy: Fill what’s empty. Empty what’s full. Scratch where it itches.”
This is quote in which former President Teddy Roosevelt’s daughter is referring to her philosophy in regards to life and it kinds of makes sense if you think about it. If there is something lacking in your personal life, career path, or whatever it may be then you should fill that void with whatever you’re missing in that aspect of your life. Too much of anything is not good, so empty some of those things you may consume different aspects of your life with. By ridding yourself of some things you do too much or have too much of, you will diversify your portfolio so to speak. YPs balance is key to being successful, you never want to be one dimensional so incorporate multiple skills in every aspect of your life whether it’s your career or personal habits or personal relationships. Possessing multiple skill sets can enhance your versatility and marketability to others. And if you have a itch, simply scratch it! I believe this part of the quote is self explanatory. Don’t rub around the problem area, scratch it, embrace it head on. YPs obstacles are going to be in you way on your way to successville so embrace them head on, prepare for them, and they will simply be a speed bump and nothing more. A successful life is not hard to live if you have the right mentality YPs!
