''You and I want our lives to matter. We want our lives to make a real difference-
to be of genuine consequence in the world. We know that there is no satisfaction in merely going through the motions in life, even if those motions make us successful- or even if we have arranged to make those motions pleasant. We want to know we have had some impact on the world. In fact, you and I want to contribute to the quality of life. We want to make the world work.''- Werner Erhard
Life is more than just killing time. It is more than just doing what you don't want to do.
Life is more than just going through the motions.
If you are not enjoying something, then why are you there?
If you stay, you are only making yourself unhappy.
Do not do that to yourself. Life is more than that.
Remember, if something is not blessing you, it is hurting you.
So do not pretend to love what you do not love.
If it is not for you, there is nothing you are going to do to make it better.
Remember what you are here to do. You are not here to endure.
You are here to live, to make a difference in your life, to increase the quality
of your life, to write your own story.
If you are not making a difference, find a way to make it. Because that is why you are here.
If you can manage yourself,
you can manage other people.
But if you cannot manage yourself,
what makes you think you can manage other people?
whether you can manage other people or not,
but you must learn to manage yourself.
Let us start here.
Change a little to gain a lot
"It makes no difference what you have done
in the past. From this day on, you can,
if you choose, change a little to gain more."- Shad Helmstetter
Manage yourself first
"How you manage yourself, what you do,
how you act, each and every moment,
every word you speak, motion you make,
and action you take, or do not take,
will determine how well anything in your life works for you."-
Shad Helmstetter
