Claim This Prize You Already Deserve Before You Die
You could be an entrepreneur, a student or any other title you want to give yourself. You might be looking for your purpose or you may be grinding in your career.
You may have goals similar to:
I want to succeed in my vocation.
I want to make money.
I want to serve people with my start-up.
I want to travel the world.
I want to write a book.
The list is endless. We set goals for ourselves, to find purpose and meaning in our lives. But, while we are on the path of our great adventure we often forget one thing.
If you notice the above statements, the one thing common in all the goals is the word ‘I’.
We often forget about the key tool to achieve those massive goals:
YOU
After all, it is you endeavoring the path chosen by you.
We need to realize how lucky we all are to exist as human beings. Out of all the endless possibilities, we have received mind and body of a human. Especially now, when we have evolved so much.
The first step is to be grateful for being present on Earth with a functioning human body. Everything in the universe does not get this chance.
The next step is to claim this award — The prize of being you.
You are an award to yourself.
Now, the question is — How do I claim myself?
The answer to this is another journey which the most of us ignore. You can call this journey by any buzzword you desire:
Self-care
Self-love
Self-help
Self-development
Self-improvement
Only a few of us really indulge in ourselves. The rest of us either make little or no effort.
Although, I understand that life is busy. A big to-do list is always waiting to get over. Yet, we also need to realize how big of an impact it will create in our personal and professional life by paying attention to ourselves.
Another common reason for ignoring this journey is:
“We all are going to die anyway. Why bother?”
But, it is the entire point. We all are temporary. We only have little unknown time that we will spend being conscious in this world. In that single opportunity:
How do you want to perform?
How clearly do you want to think?
How do you want to move?
How do you want to feel in your body?
The answers to these questions are in your hands for the most part.
Do you want to live a life of fulfilment and high performance?
OR
Do you want to die unaware of your greatest potential?
It is never too late or too early to start taking care of yourself.
We are again lucky to be born in this age of information. The best part is that we can learn so much if we truly wish.
Now, if you want to go on this journey with me please feel free to follow me and ‘You Matter’ and regularly receive information and ideas.
Let’s take charge and claim ourselves by taking care of our well-being and existence.
