Have you ever asked yourself the question “How did it get so
late so soon?”, while you got caught up in everyday hustle and bustle you
completely forgot to live. Take time to realize what you want and need. Take
time to take risks. Take time to love, laugh, cry, learn, and forgive. Life is
shorter than it often seems.
Here are ten things you need to know, before it’s too late:
This moment is your life:
Your life is not what happens between of your birth and death, it’s what
happens between now and your next breath. The present – the right here and now
– is all the life you ever get. Live each moment in full, in kindness and
peace, without fear and regret. Do what makes you happy and do the best you can with what you have in this moment;
because that is all you can ever expect of anyone, including yourself.
The sacrifices you make today will pay dividends in the
future:
When it comes to grinding in those hours and working hard to achieve a dream
which could be anything from earning a degree to building a business, or any
other personal achievement, you need to dig deep and ask yourself: “Am I
willing to live a few years of my life like many people won’t, so I can spend
the rest of my life like many people can’t?”
You are your most important relationship:
Happiness is when you feel good about yourself without feeling the need for
anyone else’s approval. You must first full understand yourself and know
how health your relationship with yourself is before you can have a healthy
relationship with others. You have to feel worthwhile and acceptable in your
own eyes, so that you’ll be able to look confidently into someone else’s and
connect with them.
When you procrastinate, you become a slave to yesterday:
Being Proactive today can take such a massive load off your back tomorrow. So
do something right now that your future self will thank you for. By doing that,
tomorrow you’ll be happy you started today.
Failures are only lessons:
Good things come to those who are patient and still hope, even though they’ve
been let down and disappointed, to those who still believe even though
they’ve failed at something, to those who still love even though they’ve been
hurt before. So never regret anything that has happened in the past; it cannot
be changed, undone or forgotten. Take it all as lessons learned and move on
with grace.
A person’s actions speak the truth:
You’re going to come across people in your life who will always talk the talk;
but in the end, it’s always their actions you should judge them by. So pay
attention to what people do, and be someone who lives by everything he says.
Their actions will tell you everything you need to know.
Behind every beautiful life, there has been some kind of
pain:
You fall, you rise, you make mistakes, you live, you learn, these are the classic
lessons of life. Nobody is perfect, but everyone is human. You’ve been hurt, but you’re alive. Think of what a precious privilege
it is to be alive – to breathe, to think, to enjoy, and to chase the things you
love. We must keep putting one foot in front of the other even when we hurt,
for we will never know what is waiting for us just around the Corner.
A lifetime isn’t very long:
This is your life, and you’ve got to fight for it. Fight for what you believe
in, live for what you believe in. Fight for what’s important to you. Fight for
the people you love, and never forget to tell them how much they mean to you.
Realize that right now you’re lucky because you still have a chance, every
breath you take is another chance to change how you lived the last. So stop for
a moment and think. Whatever you still need to do, start doing it today. There
are only so many tomorrows.
Small acts of kindness can make the world a better place:
Smile at people who look like they are having a rough day, be kind to them, let
them know that there is reason to be happy. Kindness is the only investment
that never fails, and wherever there is a human being, there’s an opportunity
for kindness. Learn to give, even if it’s just a smile, not because you have
too much, but because you understand there are so many others who feel like
they have nothing at all.
Time and experience heals pain:
No one can say that a huge loss or pain caused is not and important Life event,
but a different perspective might be to understand that an overwhelmingly
painful event in your life right now will one day be part of your much larger
past and not nearly as significant as it seems. Because overcoming it might
just open doors for you to experience things that you never have.
