Hi my friends, I had a great day today at my company’s monthly Sales Meeting. Motivated and inspired many today. Just felt that I should share this with you.
At times, it’s seemed as though life contains an endless supply of days.
When I was younger, I thought this for sure. It didn’t matter how long I held a grudge, or how long I waited to do something I wanted—there would be an unlimited pool of other opportunities. At least that’s what I thought back then.
Maybe it’s a rite of passage from childhood to adulthood: the moment when you realize life happens now, and that’s all you’re guaranteed. It doesn’t really hit you when you merely know it intellectually, like you know you’re ABCs, state capitals, and other concrete facts.
It hits you when somehow you feel it. Your health declines. You lose someone you love. A tragedy rocks your world. It isn’t until you realize that all life fades that you consider now a commodity and a scarce one at that.
But maybe that’s irrelevant. Maybe living a meaningful, passionate life has nothing to do with its length and everything to do with its width.
How do you live life to the fullest? This is my take on it.
1. Live in the moment.
2. Fully embrace the now, no matter what the situation.
3. Do the things you love.
4. Learn to forgive and embrace unconditional love.
5. Live every day as if it’s your last, embracing each experience as if it’s your first.
6. Believe in “live and let live.”
7. Use quiet reflection, honesty, and laughter.
8. Focus on today and how you can do your best to live it to the fullest.
9. Participate in life instead of just watching it pass you by.
10. Stay healthy, eat right and most importantly, be kind to all.
11. Pray, forgive yourself, appreciate others, listen to your gut, do things you enjoy, and remind yourself that we are all loved and connected.
12. Don’t sweat the small stuff. This means don’t worry about the small stuff.
13. Question everything, keep it simple, and help whenever and however you can.
14. Try to enjoy every minute of every day.
15. Appreciate life’s every second.
16. Remember that all is a gift, but the most precious of all gifts is life and love.
17. Keep your spirit free, be flexible, let go.
18 Do one thing every day that scares you.
19. Enjoy each and every moment of life. Every day is a new challenge and opportunity to discover something new.
20. Be honestly thankful for every breath you take.
21. Just be you.
22. Trust yourself. Trust your own strengths.
23. Pause momentarily before everything you do so that you notice everything you should or could notice.
24. Follow your hopes and not your fears.
So what have you done today to live life to the fullest?
