Using Time Wisely

“All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us” by J.R.R. Tolkien.

No one lives forever. We have very limited amount of time here on earth. We can waste it or we can use it wisely. It brings us to seriously thinking about our destiny, calling or purpose in life. If you do not have aim you are driven by other people intentions that may not be best plan for your life. We have to understand very clearly that we cannot live lives of other people. If we do, we will be miserable. That does not mean we have to be selfish. No, by no means! On the contrary, when you find your path you will be a blessing to others. So, do not waste your time.

Fighting Bad Things

“Stopping bad things is a significant public service” by Ted Cruz.

There are basically two directions for our fighting. We fight the evil and we fight for good. There should be balance between the two. However, you cannot do without one or the other. You need both. Evil is always there and it is aggressive. You have to go against it for the better of all humanity. The good has to be created and pursued on a daily basis. We cannot stand aside and watch bad things happening. We must interfere, express our opinion and do something about it. Evil prospers when good people don’t do anything about it. Don’t be the one who is indifferent.

Doing What You Love Makes You Happy

“To see the ball, to run after it, makes me the happiest man in the world” by Diego Maradona.

We are meant for something, something that is great and will bless not only others, but us too. Some name the thing the calling, others destiny, yet others a profession. It takes time to find your place under the sun. Most never do. They go to their jobs that they hate, because that makes them secure. It is challenging to go after things you desire. But I guess that is the only way to be happy. You need to do what you love doing.

Accept Failure but Keep on Trying

“I can accept failure, everyone fails at something. But I can't accept not trying” by Michael Jordan.

These are the words from the mouth of 7 times NBA champion and the best basketball player that have ever lived Michael Jordan. Even he admitted that he failed. These words should comfort us. However, that should not stop us. We cannot just stay at the level of failure. We should be on the level of ever trying. Not giving up is the key character feature of great achievers. Remember, you do not really fail, you just learn how to do things a different way or how not to do them.
