The unbridled joy of being yourself
Whilst I was in the bath, I was listening to a really interesting podcast on celebrating failure, hosted by the writer Elizabeth Day. And it got me thinking about how we see failure as a dirty word, and how quick society can be to judge what they perceive to be failings; a failed marriage, a failed career path. But why are things deemed failures when life is such an ongoing journey?

Why is your self-image important?
Is your mental self view significant? What job does your mental self view play? You have probably heard that you should be certain, or have the option to adapt even in a troublesome relationship. The mental self view assumes a key part in breaking free from harmful and troublesome connections, or guaranteeing that you remain all around put in that poisonous relationship. It's fascinating to realize that controllers or poisonous people center around breaking your or their casualty's mental self view, to guarantee they can apply more control. So we should take a gander at what the mental self portrait is and the job it plays.

What am I doing with my life? Is a question I feel like I ask myself repeatedly. Especially, when I have a lot on my mind. This question arises especially when I feel like I am wasting time. Time is the greatest commodity, and its taken for granted. Why do I waste time, when I can invest it. Well how do I invest in this? Some, choose to store their life in themselves. Others, decide to stock their lives in those around them. Either way, seconds are spent, and are necessary. On the other hand, there are people who just flat out do not care. Those are the people that waste their goods. Still the question persists, how am I to be a good steward of my time? Simple answer, take the time to take time with those that one encounters in their everyday. What do I mean by encounters? I mean those who one will cross paths with. On my first job in a corporation. I was taught to greet everyone in a ten feet radius. Man, at times this was annoying, and even inconvenient to accomplish. Even though it was, I still did my best to make sure, that everyone of those customers, that I came across, felt welcomed in the store. This is the type of determination that I feel everyone of us should have for the people that we come within contact of. To treat them as we would want to be treated. Man, what a world we would live in. If we spent the time to take time for others. Looking for every opportunity that we would be needed. Being that person that people can rely on to always be there for them. Again, I ask what am I doing with my life? Am I spending it, or is it sadly wasting away? Am I investing it in myself, so that I can in return share it with others? Am I learning from my mistakes to enrich my own life, and the life of those around me? Am I learning new things about life everyday? Am I successful, and what is the definition of success to me? Is that even realistic, and a fair expectation of me? What season of life am I in currently? Am I going through this life without purpose? What is my purpose, my reason to live life? For me, its to serve others needs. Which is why I do not like to be needy. However, I think that all of us need someone. All of us, were made with the want to be needed. How does this have anything to do with time? Well, I believe that all of these questions help me spend my time instead of wasting it. For, if we have a mission, then we have a reason to live. We all do not have the same assignment. Neither, do we all have the same dreams or vision. However, if we have one or all these things. Then we have purpose in our every day. Therefore, we can do the things that I have mentioned. Which would help our lives have meaning. Then hopefully, with our last breath we would be able to say that we lived our best life. That is my goal to live life to the fullest. Then I will be able to have peace with myself and those that will carry my legacy after I am gone. Kindness is more infectious than the damage of hate. I would rather be grateful in my last days. Instead of regretting that time that I had.
