“… life is meaningless unless you bring meaning to it; … it is up to us to create our own existence. Unless you do something, unless you make something it’s as though you aren’t there.”- Alan Alda

If you are not doing something meaningful with your life, if you are not pursuing your purpose, you are just existing.

Do not go through life. If you want to make a difference, if you want to change your life, you must grow through life. You must learn to use your time wisely. You must learn to say no to the things that are taking your time away.

Do not do things that are not taking you closer to where you are going. So if you really want to grow, if you want your life to make sense, you must take your own life into your own hands. It is yours to live. Why are you playing with it? Take it seriously.

How To Discover Yourself

“You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you’ll discover will be wonderful. What you’ll discover is yourself.”- Alan Alda

If you keep yourself close to your inner being, you will discover your true self. If you keep yourself close to your intuition, if you listen to your intuition, nothing can stop you from finding your true self.

Finding yourself is an internal business. If you really want to find or discover yourself, you must look within you, not without you.

When we do not know who we really are, we try to connect ourselves with the world and we walk away with nothing. Because your life is within you. It is not outside of you. So if you want to really discover yourself, your passion, your happiness, your mission, you must leave your comfort zone and go into the wilderness of yourself.
