What You Need to Know to Live Your Life in the Right Way
-
If you change how you think about your life, you will start to live differently. If you base how you think about your life on how your life actually works and the rules it follows, then you will be starting to live your life how it is supposed to be lived.
But if you don't know how your life works, then you need to be able to look clearly at what is happening in your life. So how do you look clearly at what is happening and, very importantly, what are you looking for? Seeing clearly what is happening really means looking at your life in the right way. So how should you look at it?
Your life has stages. These are periods of time, and each one has a different focus. Each one has a number of opportunities for you to act in the way that is best for you so that you benefit from it. And what are you looking for when you look at your life? You are looking for where the constantly changing boundaries are. You are looking for the places where you can move things forward and the places where you are getting resistance. You are feeling your way inch by inch into the future.
You are looking for who is helping you and who is holding you back. Label these people as such and see if it changes. If people are holding you back, then it's not time to move that area of your life forward yet. Timing is crucial in your life. You should always be doing the thing that needs to be done and recognizing the right time to do it.
That means you need to always be aware of the next thing you need to do, no matter how small or trivial it may seem. The smaller things move the bigger things along, so it benefits you to keep everything running smoothly. Keep all parts of your life in view at the same time and look for which parts you can move forward and which you can't. Then focus on the things you can change either now or in the near future. And take time to look back into the past and see if you've missed the chance to make a change. If you did, then wait for a similar chance to come around again and go for it.
Who are the people close to you? And what is going on in their lives right now? Look at how they are reacting to what is happening in their lives. Do you react in the same way? It's important that you think about the choices that the people around you make and see whether their choices were the best thing for their lives. You can then apply this to your own life. On the flip side of this, you are also affecting the people around you. You affect people by how you act, so if you are making the choices that are best for your life, then people will see that.
Your life is meaningful. But to get the meaning out of it, you need to live it in the right way. Your life has purpose, but one major purpose is to take part in it with the right intentions. You should think of yourself as a person whose every thought and every action is meaningful. How you think and how you act can change your life.
Take the future, for example. What would you like your life to be like in the near future? What small improvements would you like to make or what small changes would you like to make to yourself? To start moving towards this future, you need to be aware of the opportunities and chances that come along to bring that future closer to you. And you can only do that by paying attention to every small detail of your life.
You also need to be sensitive to yourself and how you are feeling. Some days you can't move your life forward at all. It's just too difficult. But other days you can make progress in great strides. Now this has nothing to do with how much or how little you are trying to move your life forward. It's just that some days are there for waiting. What kind of day is today?
Because if you can read your life more quickly, then you can adapt faster to the changes that happen in your day and be ready for what's coming next.
