A Thrilling Way To Live

Today, ask yourself three questions:

Who Am I?

What Am I Doing Here?

Where Am I Going?

Perhaps the third question is the most important one… “Where Am I Going?”

“Who Am I?” will help you focus… so write down what you believe.  It is not a resume, it is a chance for you to figure out who you are as a human being.

“What I Am Doing Here?” has nothing to do with where you are physically, it has everything to do with you finding your purpose in life.  Purpose… not tasks… not goals… but purpose.  If your friends would use these three adjectives to describe you, and these three adjectives they would use are the best ones you would want them to use, what would these adjectives be?

And finally, “Where Am I Going?” is all about direction.  What are your goals in life?  Where do you want to go?  Who do you want to be?  What do you want to become?  You may have the loftiest goals, the highest ideas, and the noblest dreams, but remember… nothing works unless you do.

I know these are big questions, maybe philosophical questions, but a career offers not only money, but also meaning.  The same time personal and family relationships bring love to your life.  Right Career… Right Relationships.  Community and faith goals satisfy your spiritual and altruistic needs.  Cultural and recreational goals make life fun.

So sit down, think, and write down your answers to these three questions.  Review them regularly because we all must view our lives as being in a constant state of improvement.  Fulfillment comes from a life well live, my friend.  A life devoted to making the world A Better Place.

And when you make the world a better place, in your own way, wherever you are, with whomever you may be with, you become a better person.  Because life is filled with purpose and passion.  That we all know is a great way to live.

Have a great week.
