Let me ask you for how long you are going to live on this planet? May be your answer is 50 years, 60 years, 30 years….I know, no one knows when (s)he is going back to skies. Now what if you get to know that big day in advance? Interesting? Ok...So what now if you know...are you going to live the way you are living till now or will you start doing those things which you are planning from a long because suddenly you feel you have very less time to finish all? I guess you will show urgency and start living the way you want... you will stop doing all un- necessary things and doing meaningful stuff. I guess I am correct. Am I?
No one has 500 Years to live, days are slipping into weeks, weeks into months, months into years...what you have this moment in your life; did you really want this? Are you going where you thought once? All of us think we are here forever and postpone living because we are busy being busy every day. We don’t have time for our dreams, our goals and for our aspirations. We live small & feel victim and it leads to dissatisfaction & frustration.
Here is a big idea, just imagine you own funeral. Now think no one can see you around and you are attending your own funeral. You are listening what people are saying about you. You can see people are not so sad because they think you were not important in their lives. You made no change into anyone’s life and you lived a life of no purpose. If all this is true; does it hurt you? If yes- stand up to change the future now.
Start giving importance to higher purpose of your life. It is just once. You do it or you don’t do it. No middle path. Stand up for greatness. Important is what we leave behind & what change we made; when we are not here! Big question- Are you going to leave your legacy?

Being there for people with a willingness to serve, not with grandiosity to me is true greatness. Undoubtedly striving for personal best is commendable and I don't detract from anyone's achievements. Success for me is simple, it's listening to people, taking time to just be there, no agenda, just letting it be. Watching life unfold knowing it is exactly as it should be. Repeatedly life teaches me to be kind, gentle ,real and the challenge for me forgiving is a life well spent.
We have to learn only one thing to
live fully, that is to learn to live 100% in present.
There is no past ,no future only now is what we have, this is explained in "peaceful warrior".
