Tired of empty success? Discover how critical thinking and unlearning outdated rules can help find your authentic path in Chapter 7 of Horvath’s “The Journey – I wish I knew this before I was 21.”
The story
Before: “Good grades = good job = good life.” I followed this formula religiously. Stayed in my lane. Avoided risks. Wondered why success felt empty.
After: I discovered that being unique isn’t just allowed—it’s necessary. Reading Chapter 7 of Attila B. Horvath’s “The Journey – I wish I knew this before I was 21” was my wake-up call.
What grabbed me was how Horvath talks about critical thinking. It’s not about being difficult—it’s questioning the assumptions that box you in. When you challenge the “shoulds” dictating your life, you find paths that actually fit who you are.
His take on visualization is eye-opening—showing how our subconscious shapes outcomes when we engage it properly. I also loved his view on failure: not as dead-ends but as essential growth stages.
Most helpful? Horvath’s focus on unlearning. Many career rules we’ve accepted are outdated. Real progress often means dropping limiting beliefs before building new ones.
If you’re trapped in someone else’s version of success, Chapter 7 of “The Journey” offers a practical map for finding your own way. Small steps, big dreams, and the guts to be authentically you.
