How to Guarantee a Sub Par Life
July 19, 2017
How do you like your life? Do I like my friends? How do I allow people to treat me? What are my expectations in this life? Do I believe that I can rise to the level in which I desire my life to be at with God, family, and business? These are all questions that I ask myself on a regular basis. Maybe not consciously but sub consciously for sure. Granted these are all very important questions, but if I am realistic it is very apparent that to realize these will not all be answered at one time. So, I started searching for a common thread, so I can keep moving towards getting the answers to these questions.
Although these questions are different, they all have one major cohesive component. That component is PEOPLE! People are at the root of every success or failure. Every good or bad expectation. The people that I align myself with in life are going to either help me flourish or fail, sore or suffer. People are the very essences of this life we live. At the end of my life, I don’t want to be happy with how many virtual likes I received. I don’t want to hope that people enjoyed my presence. I want to KNOW they did.
If people are the common thread to success. Then I must set my mind that I am going to genuinely care about them. I should approach every person not with a “typical” I care about you attitude, but am I CARE ABOUT YOU attitude. I need to create a burning desire inside myself to make sure that PEOPLE feel special. If I can focus on other people more than I do myself then I am making the progress that I want in life. If I am solving other people’s problems more than my own then my “problems” seem so small and they always tend to work themselves out. My desire in this blog post is too light a fire in you so that you want to run out and do something so extraordinary for people that they cannot believe you did that. If you have money spend some on someone. If you have a talent, use it for someone. If you have a passion that helps others pursue it!
In conclusion, be an exceptional you. Be a you that nobody recognizes! Be the you that doesn’t have time to worry. Think of others in a way, and on a level, that shocks them. Make them feel as though they are truly the center of your world when you interact with them. Look them in the eyes. Encourage them. Do the small things that you don’t feel like doing, but will regret at the end of your life if you don’t. Break free from the chains of living a mediocre life that is all about you. Focus on, love, and cherish the people you encounter in this life, so that you can guarantee that you won’t live a sub-par life.
