Life

What is life? I some times ask myself. Is it about living and passing the days, just because of the sack of passing your days? Is it all about enjoying the every piece of life? Or is it struggling and achieving greater goals? Well….

I think life is all about learning, and achieving greater goals. It’s about discovering yourself and making yourself better and better each day through out this journey of life, so that you can be efficient enough to discover what this wonderful life has to offer.

Setting goals and working on those goals is the most important thing in the life. Without goals, our life would be meaningless, and we would be living this life, just for the sack of living.

Goals should be real, that means they should be something that a human being can achieve. They should also be measurable, meaning that one should be able to recognize that how much and what efforts are needed for achieving those goals. And off course the goals should be positive, something that can be done for the betterment of yourself and others.

Achievement of goals requires passion, a burning desire from within that keeps on motivating you. Boredom and lethargic feelings are not acceptable; the person needs to be active at the all time. He has to stick to his belief that he can do it. No matter what kind of obstacles he faces, he shouldn’t give up. With that belief he should keep on working on his goals, and keep on persisting. There will be times, that there is no obvious hope and the person wouldn’t be getting any tangible results, despite of his handwork. But that’s where the person is actually tested; he has to be patient there. And with unshakable motivation, he should stick to his beliefs with full determination, and eventually he will achieve his goals.

But what about the kind of life, that most of the people pass – that is a life without any goals. They are still happy; they enjoy every bit of life, by doing what they want to do. Rather than doing what they should do. They have no tendency to grow from their current status of life, do something extra-ordinary or achieve something which is of a greater value. They keep on practicing what they already have been practicing since a long time, they don’t want to change for the betterment. They are happy with their current life, and want to live it in that particular way.

So in conclusion, who are better? Those who strive for change, and therefore face a lot of obstacles and problem, but off course in the end they achieve their goals. Or those who think that they don’t need to change, they don’t need to achieve any goals, they are just happy with, what they are and what life is for them???
