Live or Exist?

?? Have you ever asked someone how they are doing and they respond, “Just trying to make it through the day”, or “as well as can be expected”? If so, I bet you left that conversation less motivated or feeling sorry for that individual. That’s what existence feels like. Sympathy from others is a bigger motivation than is praise.

?? The successful people I know don’t just exist, they live. They believe that there is more to life than what they currently have. They believe in their heart of hearts that there is more available to them. Then they take a leap of faith. They understand that without that leap, they can never truly live.

?? So the question for all of us each day is, “Do You Want To Exist Or Live?”

?? If you choose existence, then you must:

a. Accept where you are in life;

b. Be happy for others successes; and

c. Not criticize the successful for doing things you weren’t willing to do.

?? BUT, if you choose to live, then you must:

a. Believe there is more to life;

b. Be willing to jump when others aren’t;

c. Pay the price for greatness; and

d. Work for what you want.

Now go be successful!
