What do you want in our life?

in #life6 years ago (edited)

If I was to ask you that question today, what would you answer? Would it be true love, money, fame, a combination of those. I guess most of us think that what we want, is the same idea that movies have sold us over the years, but is that really our own truth?

If being happy is so subjective, it means something different for every single one of us, Why would we adopt these simple goals as our own, as the default answer? I’m not attacking them, so if you believe that I’m saying true love or money is a bad thing, then you are not paying enough attention.

Some are quick to dismiss the importance of meditation, of giving yourself enough room to think about these somewhat abstract concepts. The idea that we should all be attempting to answer what we want out of life can sound to vague, but that might be because we are standing miles away from our personal answer.

I think it was Henry Ford who once said:
”Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is probably the reason why so few engage in it”

What could possibly be the outcome of a life with no direction? If we are too busy to answer the simple questions. If we don’t know what we want, and even though we claim we do, we can’t really find any justification that belongs to us and to us alone.

The good news however, is that this change, this short meditation can start today and it starts with one question.

What do you want in life?

I believe this is the hardest question in the world because most people are SCARED of asking themself. It’s crazy. And it all comes down to the greatest “criminal” in the world, ignorance.
Purpose sees life and I believe if everyone could take the courage to really dig into asking themselves this, the world would be a better place

Indeed it would, Indeed it would...

Yes friend
Keep the great work going. The world needs it ;)

what I want in life is a success that can bring us to happiness, both personal happiness and also our family's happiness. and the most important thing is to be successful I will help others who are still in their uncomfortable zone. hopefully what I aspire to achieve.

This is a very complex and at the same time very simple question
