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.

Love Overwhelms



“Romance is thinking about your significant other, when you are supposed to be thinking about something else“ by Nicholas Sparks. 

Those who have been in love know the experience. You may have all the worries of the world on your shoulders, yet if you are in love, they do not really bother you. You can only think about her/him. That’s very powerful. In essence there practically isn’t a stronger feeling than love. On the other hand, it is priority number one in anyone’s life. We may not admit that, but what we really search for in things, money, joys of the world is fulfillment that only true love can give.

Man is Measured by Challenges



“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy” by Martin Luther King, Jr. 

It is easy to be courageous when you watch TV and drink tea in your armchair. You may say brave speeches how to fight evil, corruption and etc. It is a completely different situation when you need to take action and do something about injustice in society, corrupt politicians or dictators. That’s when you can really find out what you are worth and what the weight of your words is.

Never Too Old for Another Dream



“You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream” by C.S. Lewis. 

Since life is all about change and moving forward you are never too old to think of something new. The greatest achievers have lived all their lives like that. You should not believe anybody who tries to convince you that your best days are in the past. Nothing could be further from the truth. They are ahead! Only, if you believe it! Dare to believe it. You will not have a single boring day if you make that choice. The best is yet to come!
