If you asked mot people to complete this sentence: I wish I had more ________." 91% will say "I wish I had more time " How do you feel? Are you satisfied you lived completely? Or do you wish you had done some things differently? Very few of us will look back on our life and say, "I wish I had watched more TV " This is what we will say. "I wish I had been bolder. I wish I had given more. I wish I had tried harder to see more, do more and feel more." People wish that they had lived more. If you could start your life all over today what would be different? What would you change now if you were able to wave a magic wand and start from scratch? Just imagine you have no ties, no burdens, no limits, no memories, and no past. What would your life look like? If the answer that comes to your mind is different than what you are doing, why is that? Is it because of someone else's opinion? A spouse, a parent - or maybe your children? The ultimate test of your life is to close your eyes and think of yourself on your deathbed. Lying there, preparing yourself to leave, look back at your life as you are currently living it. I, for one, have to admit to a certain amount of holding back on dreams and goals because I thought there would always be plenty of time to do all I wanted to do. Until I got sick, now I realize there is no reason to hold back. Life is a balancing act. We all must have sufficient finances to support a comfortable lifestyle, (although most of us tend to spend way too much on that ) Part of this balancing act is understanding what we are passionate about doing so that work becomes a joy instead of a job. Is this not a major reason of lost dreams and goals? Many people find work, call it a job and make a living at it. But they begrudge every minute of it, going as far as using the job as a reason for playing the martyr. Another part of the balancing act is to include those around you in frank and open discussions in what it is you want. I find some people who have kept their wants and needs bottled up inside them forever They had already decided for the other person in their lives there was no interest in whatever it was they themselves wanted to do How absurd How can we possibly know what someone else wants Make an attempt today to start with a brand new page of your life. Create your life story how you want it. If there are others in your life to be involved, have them do the same exercise. Then compare what your notes. If this matches your current life, congratulations You are one of the few. Now make it better.
