OUR LIMITED TIME ON EARTH

 

 

We only have so much time. This is the first thing to acknowledge and everything else will start to make sense.

We act as if we have countless days and take advantage of our time and how we spend it.

I am a firm believer that greatness lives in all of us, but there is an expiration date. The illusion of permanence is one of the great tragedies of humanity.

One day when this journey called life nears its final destination, you will undoubtedly pause and reflect, like so many others have done before you. It will be a moment of reckoning – a summation of what your life stood for up to that point. We all must remind ourselves of this reality to keep things that are of importance to us in perspective.

The truth is that our lives are temporary. Somehow, society teaches us to chase external things instead of pursuing what truly ignites our souls. In the process of collecting external rewards, we forget what it means to live - to truly live - with courage, with love, with passion, with purpose.

Many people chase money, material things, certificates, and status without thinking about the meaning of life.

I know those people because I was one of them many years ago. 

Time commands you to prioritize your days around what is most important to you. No two people are alike, and everyone’s perception is different. We all have different wants, needs, and desires.

Remember that one great day leads to a great week, great weeks lead to great months and great months lead to great years.

I don't believe that we were put here on Earth just to collect a paycheck, to buy stuff, to pay bills, to achieve status, and to exist in a meaningless cycle of nothing. No, I believe that we were put here on Earth to unleash our greatness, to chase our dreams, and to leave our legacy.

We are here to love, to laugh, and to give. We are here to live a life that will outlive us so we can give back to the world more than we receive.

We are here to make a difference.

Leave who you were. Love who you are and look forward to who you will become.

The books, Seminars, Quotes, and confusion of how to implement change in any area of our life will become clear ONLY when we understand time.

At the end of the day, if we are not fighting for something bigger than ourselves, then we are dying for nothing.
