“Let's start a new tomorrow,
today.”_Neil Gaiman
Today, I
want to deconstruct how we can create meaningful life out of our brief
existence on earth by living with purpose, by acting on priority and by living
for productivity, every single day.
You see, if
we want to live an awesome life, we can’t let circumstances control our
direction; so, we must be willing to set the right priorities and live each day in
the best way possible.
Mind you,
this does not mean flawless perfection in any way but it does mean understanding
that we can take charge of our life by making each day better than the day
before. We can always improve our chances of a better tomorrow by maximizing
the opportunities of today.
To do this,
we need to have clearly defined set of goals. A well-thought out plan is
essential to having a meaningful self-direction.
In the words
of a Zen teacher, Dainin Katagiri: “If you want to take care of tomorrow, take
better care of today. We always live now. All we have to do is entrust ourselves
to the life we now live.”
Embrace
self-discipline. Give every single day your best effort. Focus on the here and
now without allowing yourself to become discouraged by your less optimal days.
What we do
now, what we make of our present circumstances, will determine the quality and scope of our future possibilities. Doing our best today will put us in a better position
tomorrow.
If you want
to have an awesome life, you need to plan and live each day as if it matters—because
it does.
