''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.
"Even if you seek to harm an enemy, you should remove your own defects and cultivate good qualities. Through that you will help yourself, and the enemy will be displeased."- Nagarjuna
Do not try to fix, to change another person. Do not try to do to others what you can't do to yourself. Before you try to change another person, you must first change yourself.
Focus on what you can do for yourself, not what others can do for you. You will enjoy your life even more than you are enjoying now if you can just focus on working on yourself.
Work on yourself. It is you. Life is all about you. Do not be scared to confront life. Because if you do not do it, no one is going to help you get rid of your defects. If you want your defects to go away, you must be true to yourself.
Whatever you want from others, just do it for yourself. When you do, others will do the same.
