This list explores five transformative habits from 5 Killer Habits: Be A Rebel by Sree Krishna Seelam, designed to help you break free from procrastination and live with intention. From waking up with purpose to embracing curiosity and adventure, these habits encourage you to seize each day and live a life full of growth, courage, and discovery. Perfect for anyone ready to step out of the "one day" loop and start making meaningful change today.
The first chapter, Arise, Awake & Kickass is a solid call for awakening. It’s an alarm that inspires us to stop hitting snooze — not only on our alarm clocks, but on our lives. This chapter is a call for us to get up early, own our morning and change the course of the day from step one. Waking up early sets the productive tone for the day, we can get focused and get more done before the world has woken up.
Being a hero isn’t about superpowers or a cape — it’s about courage, honesty and integrity, even when no one sees. To be a hero is to live with courage and authenticity, putting one foot in front of the other and doing that which is right, rather than that which may be easy. This chapter inspires us to expand our definition of a hero and to understand that we can all be the hero in our own lives on a daily basis, and volunteering is a very noble way of doing it.
To be a “dromomaniac” is to have drive for travel and exploration most of your life. Traveling in this sense has nothing to do with getting stamps on your passport — but has everything to do with exposing yourself to new experiences, broadening your perspective, and learning from the world around you.
In Live 100 Lives, Seelam tackles the burden of living just one life, encouraging us instead to live many. How? Through reading. Books allow us to glimpse into the lives of many other people — without leaving our own homes. By reading, we can step into someone else’s shoes, learn from others, and dive into ideas, cultures and worlds we would never experience otherwise. Books, in their essence, make us live hundred lives, they enrich our minds and expand our understanding.
The habit, Stay Curious, encourages maintaining a mindset of continual growth and exploration. Seelam quotes that life gives several opportunities of learning and curiosity enables us to bring innovations, explore new horizons and adapt ourselves to emerging environment. It means that we will never get bored with what we know, instead, we will strive to know more, to develop and discover new concepts. It’s about maintaining the magic and joy of learning.
