Live A Life Worth Living

Life.png

Many people hate it when their alarm clock goes off in the morning. Even worse than that, for many of these people it's not just a matter of wanting to sleep in a little later, they dread getting up. They either just plain hate what they are doing for a living or they hate facing another day of uncertainty...not knowing what to expect from one day to another.

It's time to change. It's time to take action and start to live a life worth living.

Make the most of every opportunity. But you cannot take hold of any opportunity if you don't know what it is that you want to do.

Ask yourself; "If I can do anything I want to do for the next hour...for the next day...what would it be? What would I love to do?"

I'm not talking about sitting on the beach while sipping on an exotic drink or something...lol! I'm talking about actually doing something.

Don’t limit yourself to finances, expertise, knowledge, or anything else. Anything that would make you feel more productive...something that would give meaning or substance to your life.

The two most common responses to this would normally be

  1. I have a full-time job and I just don't have the time...or I'm just too tired to do anything after work...
  2. I don't have the money...

With that mentality, I guarantee you that you will never live a life worth living.

If there is anything that you can do to make life worth living, something you love and have a passion for, get yourself to start doing something about it. Even if it is for just 30 minutes to an hour per day...but start doing something.

You don't have to quit your job or do something silly or irresponsible. But if you start doing something that you feel passionate about, I promise you it will start energizing you. You'll soon start feeling better about yourself and you'll actually start looking forward to getting up in the mornings.

It can be anything and it doesn't have to cost you money in the beginning. How about starting to educate yourself about something you want to know more about. Start reading and do some research.

For quite some time now, I've been hearing people panicking, saying things like "where is all of this going to end? Things can't go on like this! Money is losing its value by the day. My income can't keep up with inflation and the rate that the prices of things are going up!"

Sounds familiar? Instead of being part of the problem, I started to learn about a solution. And man, it's getting me excited. It's called "Crypto"!

Yet, these fearful people often don't want to hear about it. A couple of weeks ago, I had a conversation with a lady who was very concerned about the future, corruption, and how safe our money is.

When I mentioned crypto, she nearly made a triple summersault and fell off her chair... "No. They must stay away from me with that stuff", she said. "I would rather hide my cash under my bed where I know it is safe", she said.

What?!

  1. Firstly, hardly anybody is using cash these days.
  2. All you do is increase the risk of losing your money in unforeseen circumstances like crime, fire, etc.
  3. You prevent your own money from working for you and it loses value even faster.

Yet, on the other hand, you read an inspirational article of how It Started At Zero, written by @jongolson. If you want to really get inspired and cast your excuses out the window, do yourself a favor and read that article!

There is no reason why we should get sucked in by all the negativity and doom-prophets of this world.

Decide what makes you "tick". Then go do it! There are ample opportunities right here on the blockchain. As a matter of fact, there is so much to learn about right here, I decided to just turn on the brakes a bit, and first decide what to focus on first. As Jon Olson says, "put those blinkers on and get focused"...lol.

I hope this helps to get you moving in the right direction. To get out of that day to day battle against boredom, negativity, and even depression.

There is so much to be positive and excited about and I hope this post helps you to realize that.
