My notes:

-Define what success means to you-success is relative.
-External vs. internal success- it's more important to be internal succsesful, external success is what material you have. You can be internal succesful right now, because it's just a feeling and when you feel it, you will be external succsesful too.

Habits:
1. Control your mindset - 4:22
2. Follow your heart & intuition - 5:32
3. Belive in yourself. Trust your vision - 6:50
4. Act despite fear - 8:00
5. Willing to learn & figure it out - 9:00
6. Take action - 12:06 - negative feedback is more useful than positive one, because it allows you to know what your mistakes are and take action to avoid them and improve yourself.
7. Continious learning - 13:16 - read books, articles etc.| When you fail, it means that you've tried. And to fail is ok! It's productive experience.
8. Behave like a pro - 14:27
9. Consistency - 15:50 - small steps to your goal. | Showing up everyday is a *choice*
10. Being commited for the long term - 18:07
11. Leverage habits - 19:15
12. Don't go it alone. Connect & work with other people - 20:20

im 19 and since quarantine, i decided to get aaaall my shts together. I wanted to start right now, be successful in my early 20s, be a boss of my self and Miss Aileen really helped me alot, her vids are so helpful for my mindset, it's therapeutic and soul-fulfulling. Thank you❣️

also your podcast, it's my lullaby whenever i go to sleep🥺✊🏼

I am shocked about the process of Personal Growth Challenge. I did not expect a lot of people to quit later on. Keep going on one thing is not easy. The person who has consistency successes!

For me, the most relevant points discussed in this video are:

1.) Giving more importance to internal success rather than external success - I still struggle with it because my goals are often clouded by what I know will impress others. Even sometimes, when I actually make goals for myself and then they impress others, I forget my personal reason why I'm aiming for them. And then I begin to lose consistency. It's like the external validation from others makes me disconnected from my genuine intentions.

2.) Connecting with other people - I love the quote "If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together." I also struggle with thinking that I can do it all alone. I forget that things are always easier and more meaningful when they are done with other people, especially with those who will surprisingly get you a lot. It's magic when you meet people lof your tribe. So I should avoid closing my doors to everyone.

Hi Aileen. I just want to say thank you for your videos. As someone who was extremely shy and well nerdy in school, I was bullied often and as a result my self esteem has always been low. I even became a shut in for a few years. I've started to practice self love unconditionally and I've started to feel so much better. It's been an amazing journey though I still have a long way to go. The best thing about yourself is the way you speak in a way that we all can relate to. And I say this, even though I'm not in your target audience (I'm a guy in my early 30s).. Thanks again and continue your good work. You are an inspiration
