Life must have a meaning, and living must
have a purpose with different goals and objectives. They determine what you are
going to do with your respective goals and objectives.
Choosing
Living is about “doing” this and that
through your decisions and actions to achieve those life goals and objectives
defined by your “being.”
Who do you want to become? A learner
to acquire skills to do what you want to do? A mentor to help others get
what they want? An expert to broaden and improve your insights into a
special field? You have your freedom to choose.
Your “being” and your “doing” go hand in
hand throughout your consolidation phase. Although they may change over time,
they must become your “working”—an essential component of your life and living.
Freedom
You have your freedom to choose your
working.
Do you have the education or the skills to
do what you want to do?
If not, then you have your freedom to do
something about that.
If you have self-doubt about your
capability to get the education or to acquire the technical skills, then you
have only two options: changing your pre-conceived mindset about what
you can and cannot do; accepting who you think you are and all the
consequences of being your true self.
The first option is about changing
yourself. Life is all about changes and getting wisdom from those positive
changes. Without changes, nothing can or will be done and you will just
continue to remain who you are. The second option is about accepting a
low-paying job, such as working at the checkout of a grocery store.
Bondage
Not accepting a low-paying job while doing
nothing to change yourself is your bondage to committing crimes, such as
stealing, burglarizing, and robbing.
The only way to free yourself from your bondage is to become a professional with your expertise backed by related training to earn a higher income; or to start a business with your own innovative ideas inspired by your passion, your motivation, and your perseverance.
The bottom line: Living is about doing, and not just about your talking or your dreaming.
