Wherever You Are, Be There

Wherever you are, be there. You are where you are for a reason. Don’t ignore it, explore it. We don’t see what is around us because we are too busy to see it, to enjoy it. You are too busy to enjoy your wife. You are too busy to enjoy your life. You are too busy to read more books. You are too busy to take care of your body. You are too busy to go to your best friend’s birthday.

When are you going to slow it down?

It is time to slow down. It is time to evaluate your life. Why? Because if you don’t check what you are doing to yourself, to your life, to the people around you, you will continue with your busy life. Before you do anything, before you take on a new assignment, ask yourself, “Is it necessary?” Do not just do something to look good. Do something because it is necessary, but not urgent. Stop living your life on the road. Slow it down.

Slow your busyness down. If you want to live a better life, you must give yourself a full attention. When you are with yourself, be there. When you are with your wife, be there. When you are playing with your children, be there. When you are eating, just eat. When you are working, be there. Because every moment is important. Every moment is special. Enjoy it.

Spend quality time with yourself. Spend quality time with your soul. Do not take on more than you can do. Do not take on what you cannot do. Do not promise people what you don’t have. It is better. Take time to rest, to think, to read, to just connect with nature. Remember, you are not going to be here forever, so enjoy every moment of your life. Start now.

Why Some Days Are Better

You can’t avoid bad days. You can’t control nature. You can change how you enjoy your day. Don’t worry about bad days. They are going to happen. Bad days are bad days. Don’t let them get you down. Focus on the light, not the darkness. When your day is not going well, find something that will make you really happy. Do something that will take your mind away from negative things. Call a friend. Take a walk around your neighborhood. Listen to great music. Meditate. Take a break from whatever is getting you down. Don’t try to force yourself through things. Wake yourself back, then start again.

Things are different. Don’t beat your up when things are not going your way. It is not always going to go your way. You have got to accept that. If not, suffer will come.

Try to love what you do. Don’t take on what you cannot do. Before you accept any assignment from anybody, you must do your own research. You must find out if it is what you can do. Because if you don’t do it well, it will hurt your image. Some days you will do well, some days you will not. But no matter what happens, don’t change how you see yourself. If you make a mistake, it is not about you; it is about the thing. Instead of looking at yourself as a weak person, look at the mistake as a learning opportunity. If you can do that, you will know why some days are better.
