What does it mean to Live A Great Life? How do you go about doing it?
Happiness and fulfillment come from seeking after truth and applying it in your life. That is the only way you can achieve a desired result. You have to learn and apply the true principles that govern the outcome you desire. You can't try to change them or ignore them, cry about them or claim that they don't exist. They will only come back to bite you if you do!
Are you Living A Great Life?
Are you living a life of Happiness?
Do you feel a deep sense of Fulfillment?
Do you feel Connected to those most close to you?
Are you Healthy and Fit?
Do you feel a sense of Purpose in your life?
Are you pursuing Personal Growth every day?
Those are some of the key questions to answer in Pursuit of Living A Great Life!
Here's a bit of wisdom that came to me very clearly and very strongly the other day as I was pondering on some great audios that I had just listened to:
THE RESULTS THAT WE HAVE IN EVERY AREA OF OUR LIVES ARE A DIRECT INDICATION OF THE LIMITS OF OUR KNOWLEDGE IN THAT AREA!
Other indications of a lack of sufficient knowledge in our lives are things like pain, discomfort, hardship, trials, challenges, relationship problems, financial struggles, depression, or any of a host of other short-comings in our lives.
Living a Great Life comes from the pursuit of excellence in many different areas. Notice I used the word excellence not perfection. Complete personal perfection is something that we will never be able to attain in this life and it's pursuit will only lead us to frustration.
However the pursuit of excellence is a step by step process of daily practice that leads us to mastery of a particular talent, skill or area of our lives and by default, moves us closer to that elusive ideal of perfection.
It's that pursuit that brings us happiness, peace and fulfillment in our day to day lives, even much more so than the accomplishment of the goal. The ultimate accomplishment in the pursuit of a goal is not what we achieve, but in who we become in the process!
The pursuit of any worthwhile goal requires us to learn, stretch and grow or we would already have what we are seeking and therefore the goal wouldn't be necessary. If we can develop the ability to look back and see where we have grown and developed new abilities, we will find real genuine happiness in who we have become. That happiness will come from recognizing our new found, increased capacity to accomplish even more with our lives!
Think about the picture of the mountain climber at the top of this page. If you have ever stood on top of a mountain that you have climbed, you can understand the sense of accomplishment and victory that this shot represents!
There are two similar emotions that run through your soul at a moment like this, one is the incredible sense of awe at the vista that stretches out all around you. The second is equally as strong and maybe more so. It is the stirring feeling that "I DID IT!" I climbed this mountain! I conquered this obstacle! I WON! It literally represents victory in your life!
Is it the standing on top that inspires that second emotion or is it being able to look back down the path that you just followed and thinking, "Wow, I actually just climbed that!" "I actually overcame that obstacle?" "If I could do that, what else could I possibly do in my life?" Those are the kind of feelings that give us a sense of accomplishment in our lives that is an integral part of the sense that you are Living A Great Life!
What are your "mountains"?
Are they family and relationship oriented?
Are they career and finance related?
Are they health and fitness concerns?
Are they goal/vision/purpose driven?
