Peter Diamandis’ Laws can help you develop a persistent and passionate life. How do I know? I follow these rules in my life in a myriad of ways (although to be fair, I followed some of these rules without realizing it).

Laws are fantastic because they help distill a key piece of wisdom or knowledge into something tangible. It’s like when you burn yourself while cooking, and then do it over and over — you realize it would probably be smart to cook things that are delicious but low effort (slow cooking, braises and stews, etc.).

So without further ado, here are the remaining laws 21–29:

21. An expert is someone who can tell you exactly how it can’t be done.

22. The day before something is a breakthrough it’s a crazy idea.

23. If it were easy it would have been done already.

24. Without a target you’ll miss it every time.
