I feel that there are many things in life in which we think too much about, or that we overthink and send ourselves into a spiral. For most of our lives, we sought harmony and a sense of peace, a quest intriguing probably the vast majority of human beings on this small planet. Constantly asking yourself questions, forever wondering if you’ll find the answers:
What is life? What is the meaning of my existence? When is life truly worthy of being lived? When and how do you find peace of mind?
I think I can safely say that the past few years have shown us what really matters and what we should really be focussing on. Many, if not all of us, have experienced some kind of personal transformation, “life wisdom” gathered by maturing over time. As they say “ The older, The wiser”. But the thing is, how can that be true if we are always learning and evolving? The journey is never complete, you should always be willing to look and try new things, your journey doesn’t end, it evolves.
Understandably, it is personal to each and everyone of us, and life itself can mean different things to different people. To some their main focus is family, others is their work and some it is religion, no matter what, each of these different types of people continuously work and try their hardest for what they believe in. I try to follow these 3 rules to help me stay on track and allow them to inspire me everyday:
If you do not go after what you want, you will never have it.
If you don’t ask, the answer will always be NO.
If you do not step forward, you will always be in the same place.
They make me want to ask questions and keep looking for the answers, they make me want to continue to improve myself as well as my practice and how i tackle the day. You are the only person standing in your own way, you are capable of so much more than you think you are, look how much you have learnt since coming into this world. Why should age dictate the amount of learning and growing you are able to do? Stay bold, stay driven and stay inspired, the possibilities of what you are able to reach will be endless.
