WHAT SHOULD BE THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF LIFE?




The point of life is that you only have one, or at least, you can only remember one.
Meaning that everything you do here will be everything you remember experiencing.
Make the most of it!
You have an opportunity that no one else in life will ever have by just being you.
Only you were born with those genetics, in those surroundings, given those experiences! Experience as much as possible because no one else will ever be able to experience life the way you will.
So many people live their lives not experiencing anything new at all.
They stay within the same 4 walls, only leaving to go to their work, which are just different 4 walls.
The things they do every day hardly change, they hardly go anywhere and nothing new ever happens.
The most exciting and new thing that they may do is order some different food at their favorite restaurant!
You need to figure out what it is you want to experience and then go and experience it, because those experiences are what makes life worth living!
When you think back on your past you do not think about the normal days.
You don’t think about doing the normal things or eating the food you always eat.
What you remember are the moments that take your breath away.
You remember the time you stood by the Grand Canyon in awe or the time you laughed so much with friends that you were afraid you would suffocate!
You remember when you first got the courage to ask out that person you’ve been crushing on way too long and the butterflies you felt in your stomach when you finally took the chance to kiss them.
You remember how proud you were of yourself when your parents told you they were proud of you and how amazing it felt when you achieved something by giving it your all.
These moments are the ones that stick with us and that we remember when times are rough.
These are the moments and experiences that you should seek out day after day.
When you die you will only be able to look back at what you remember.
You will either find regret as the experiences pile up where you were too scared to act, or you will find pride and awe as you remember the moments that took your breath away.
What you will find is up to you, right now.

But at the end of it all the only goal worth striving for is to live a life worth living.

how to increase will power and self discipline?

The first 40 minutes of the webinar are devoted to presenting 5 Foundational Ideas. These are the following: 1. Genius is less about genetics and more about practice.2. Progress is built around discomfort – you must get comfortable with being uncomfortable.3. You have a responsibility to be great – you have an obligation to yourself, to your family, and to the world to invest in yourself in order to become the best person you can be, and to express the gifts and talents you were born with.4. The goal is the process – don’t get too hung up on achieving your goals; the real value of reaching for your goals is who you become in the process.5. You succeed through small, daily improvements over time –tiny wins lead to massive success. After presenting the 5 Foundational Ideas, Sharma moves on to talking about willpower. Key insights on willpower (based on science): 1. Willpower is like a muscle, which means that you can strengthen and build it. It’s not something that you either have or y...

10 Benefits of Rising Early, and How to Do It? here we goooo...........

“Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise” –  Ben Franklin, famously “Put no trust in the benefits to accrue from early rising, as set forth by the infatuated Franklin …” –  Mark Twain Now, let me first say that if you are a night owl, and that works for you, I think that’s great. There’s no reason to change, especially if you’re happy with it. But for me, switching from being a night owl to an early riser (and yes, it is possible) has been a godsend. It has helped me in so many ways that I’d never go back. Here are just a few: Greet the day . I love being able to get up, and greet a wonderful new day. I suggest creating a morning ritual that includes saying thanks for your blessings. I’m inspired by the Dalai Lama, who said, ” Everyday, think as you wake up, ‘today I am fortunate to have woken up, I am alive, I have a precious human life, I am not going to waste it. I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expan...

The 15-minute daily ritual that drastically improved my confidence

I started making time to review every day in an attempt to make it easier for me to stick to the  goals  I'd set. The experiment had an unintended consequence: It gave me a greater appreciation for all the progress I'm making, thereby increasing my  confidence . One of the keys to keeping this habit is  accountability  - I set up a weekly call with a friend where we discuss our progress. So much is lost in the rush of daily  life . At the end of a busy work day, I've often closed out my tabs feeling exhausted, but also somewhat confounded.  What did I even do today? Am I actually becoming the  writer  I want to be?  Lots of questions, zero answers. And as my questions piled up, so did the self-doubt and second-guessing. So I decided to make a change. I started setting aside time every day to recognize what I'd done and thereby keep tabs on my progress toward short- and long-term goals. I've always been ...
