One day when you die, you would want to be remembered ‘positively lived,’ ‘contributed to others lives’ and maybe ‘a pleasure to have been known as the person.’
This doesn’t mean your life was seamless, so smooth, and you didn’t have any problems. It just means that you were challenged, you managed to overcome the difficulties, you lived pleasantly, and you were simply unshakable. The strong winds still blew, the seas got rough, the rain drained you, and droughts were there, but you moved on, one step at a time. Unshakable means that you dared to walk through the adversities while being beaten up; you kept walking, trusting there is an end to this very soon. Controlled means you learned to forgive, focus on yourself on what mattered most, and drive to another level, trusting instincts, trusting destiny, trusting things always happen for a reason. Unshakable means you learned through your tears and experiences, and you were kind enough to share your learnings to better another individual.
People talk about a fully-fledged life on earth where you will achieve ‘human potential.’ There are multiple programs on helping people to get there as advertised. Numerous self-help books too. The very basic understanding of your potential, in other words, is time and energy associated. Every day you get 86,400 seconds deposited into your time bank account. Towards the evening of the same day, you can check your pluses and minuses, and this will reveal if you had a productive day and whether you have been working on achieving that full potential.
Your life is valuable, and no one else will if you don’t give value to it. The day you realize there is no other universal truth than ‘Life’ itself, you will start to see things differently. When you learn to appreciate yourself, your life, and the world around you, things begin to change. The day you realize you are part of a whole universe and most of the time, where you are, is where you should be, at that given time, you will understand things better. The day you realize when you have to change your life, you need to start from within you, and certainly not by correcting your life situations outside or others around you, things will start to fall into place.
Know these secrets of a lifetime. I learned these too late, but for you, if you can pay attention to them now, it will help you build a successful life much earlier.
1. Time rolls away at the same pace for you and others
If you are happy or sad, it rolls away. If you are eating, drinking, sleeping, and waking up, it moves away. If you are learning something or teaching someone, it rolls out. If you are sick or your loved ones are sick, it still rolls away. If you achieve something or you lose something, it still moves away. If you are lazy, unsure about what you need to do, you are scared about your future, worry about your relationship, and still roll away. If you are Steve Jobs or Albert Einstein, it moves away. Make the best use of the time as much as possible. In truth, time is more valuable than money in every way.
2. It is the life energies that will help to manifest the life you want in this world
We know that time is running out without our control. Then it is the energy we can learn to manage to step into the higher platform. It is this energy form that will define where or what level you will go to. The day you realize you make the outside world around you – the way it is, because of the bandwidth and energies you extrapolate to attract the same bandwidth and energies to you, you have taken the first step in this journey towards betterment. The day you realize that if you want to change your life, you need to change it from within to different energy and bandwidth, you will go a long way in taking action. Once you take responsibility for your life to your hand, understanding all above, you have perhaps won half of the battle already.
It is in the life energies that you have a limitation placed on yourself. In life energies, one will be different and achieve things, with a leap of 5-year achievements in just one year vs. one year passed without doing anything significant. It is via these life energies that you will create an impact on yourself and others around you.
3. Using compulsiveness to our advantage
We are compulsive creatures. When we see something, we want to do it immediately. If a glass is out of place, we want to put it in the right place quickly. We are going in one path and getting distracted by another, and we would do a thousand things that wouldn’t help in our pathway to achieving our goals. But compulsiveness is essential for us to take action even on the planned goals. Hence what is equally important is to use this as a platform and act on it consciously rather than unconsciously.
4. Using emotions to our advantage
Emotions help run the world. Every action we take, our behavior, our results, in the end, is because of the feeling that is attached to it, which created the effect. For example, say you want to do Australian Medical Exams. If you think it’s hard and you are too old to study as a foreign graduate to get the licensing, you have given a negative meaning to the thought. Your emotions arising from it is a ‘painful process’; hence your action is most likely to procrastinate. If you can replace the meaning you attached to it, as ‘passing the exam is perhaps the only way you will have greener pastures and have a better quality life soon, you link excitement as emotion to it. Your actions will naturally want to finish the exam soonest, and you will have more energy to work on the things you need to do.
Above four golden secrets will always take time to sink in. It will take time for you to understand its real meaning. I would suggest you keep reading over and over again. Despite its simplicity, you can get a deeper meaning, which will guarantee improvements of your life are understood and used—wishing you the very best!
