Doing Things of Long Term Value

“If you would not be forgotten as soon as you are dead, either write something worth reading or do things worth writing” by Benjamin Franklin. 

Life can be wasted or used to its full potential. It is about setting goals that are worth pursuing. If you don’t have one, or your aim in life is simply to have fun, you won’t achieve anything significant. It is not about becoming popular, but leaving a positive mark in the world, something that will bless generations that will come after us. Of course, we can do some big bad things and people will read about it. I hope none of us want that. Let’s make plans and goals on how to bless the world.

What You Become Achieving Your Goals

„What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals“ by Zig Ziglar. 

People often concentrate on visible physical outcome, blessings, material prosperity when they think about success and achievements. However, this is not the main aspect of being successful. On the road to success you change in many ways. You become a different you. Why? Because you are moving, leaving things behind, discovering new things, rejecting old ways of thinking and adopting new ones. You would also hardly ever achieve things you want to achieve if you don’t change and refuse to become a completely different you.
