EXISTING VERSUS LIVING.

This piece is design purposefully to stop you of meandering in the maze of mediocrity and just existing start  living a meaningful life.
Are you working hard or playing hard, are you living or mere existing? Are you in charge of your life or you leaving it in the hands of someone else to control?

Let me show you the art of living. The person that makes little distinction between;
His work and his play
His labour and his leisure
His mind and is body
His information and his recreation
His love and his religion
He hardly knows which is which
He simply pursues his vision of excellence in whatever he does,
Leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing
To him, he’s always doing both

Don’t follow society’s standards or you will be sentenced to a life of average. Life is neither a practice nor a dress rehearsal; it is the real deal.
Life presents us with two choices. (i) We can either exist efficiently or (ii) live abundantly. Both choices have a price tag on them.
The price for existing efficiently is that you tend to lead a very shallow, empty, unproductive life frustrated life, far below your potential and your privilege.

The cost of living abundantly is that you must get out all that lies within you become that person that you have always wanted to be, not only for yourself but also for the benefit of others. The moment you realize and internalize that, you becoming better make the world better and your life change.

We have been lied to! We think that in order to create world change we have to hold some large political office, be some wealthy business tycoon, or be some famous celebrated world figure. But nothing could be further from the truth. Want some truth? The truth is that you, yes you can change this world, your environment, your institution for better by just the way you approach your academic (study and learning) life, work and life in general.

Just by deciding that you will live abundantly change the world and the cause of your life. Imagine our world if people stopped existing and really started living. Crime would almost disappear because when people live, they don’t need to take from or harm other to get what they want, because they realize that what they really want, they already have within then. It’s just a matter of recognition and development.

Invest you time in developing yourself instead of tearing down others.
