Stand Firm

Going off my last post...everyday you have the ability to turn your life in the direction of your goals. The ultimate goal, happiness. Happiness for all people means different things: such as reaching milestones, meeting someone special, or simply being able wake up with no regrets and a clear conscience. The important thing is going after what makes you happy. Forget what other people think, live your life the way you want to. And stand firm in your decisions. I think a lot of people bring themselves down by having regrets. Life is about making decisions for better or worse these decisions mold the people we are. You have to be content with yourself before you can ever achieve anything noteworthy or significant. Once you realize that - the sky is the limit. Meaning, that even if you wake up one day not happy with where you are you have the ability to change your future. But never regret the decisions that brought you to where you are. They are life lessons upon which to build a successful happy future. A certain quote comes to mind, " success does not entail in never making blunders but in never making the same one a second time.". We go through difficult times in order to grow and build up a cache of knowledge for the future in order that we know how to handle a certain situation in a more proper way. Life is a trail by error game. I believe you can find a lot of hope in this philosophy. Because it means that as we progress through life, life's trials should get easier. Then it's easier to unlock lifes treasures. It's also easier to know and go after what makes us happy. It all begins in standing firm in your aspirations and going after them without looking back.
