A Meaningful Life

If you grew up in an atmosphere of scarcity and want, you'd probably have been made to believe that a meaningful life is a case of abundance and sufficiency. If you grew up battling with a serious health challenge, your cerebrum would have been wired to conceive of the life devoid of pain as the meaningful life.

You may not entirely be wrong. Your experiences and exposure have a subtle way of conditioning your perception of life, yet such perceptions are often lopsided and skewed to your domain of rationality unless they have universal applicability.

A meaningful life consists of knowing what your highest strengths and talents are and using them in the service of something that you believe is bigger than you are. A meaningful life is a life of purpose expressed in committed service to God and humanity.

So stop being hedonistic and living only for your own self. Stop trying to imitate the 'artificial lifestyle' portrayed on the media. Use every gift and talent deposited in you to create value and be a blessing to others. That is the password to engagement and meaning.

Have an amazing day!

KILLER OPPORTUNITY OF THE CENTURY Imagine it's 1976 and you're outside, going for a walk in your neighbourhood. As you walk, you pass the neighbour's house whose garage is open... Inside, they're tinkering with computers - and you greet them... "Hey Steve!" -  you say... and behind them is a handwritten sign that reads "Apple Computers"... Knowing what you do now, would you walk past them - or instead try to get involved with their company? Cryptocurrency is a similar story. Once "just a fad" - the cryptocurrency industry currently sits at a market cap of over 1 trillion dollars! ...and today, over 300 million people own crypto. Over the next few years, I'd guess that billions will own crypto - and it is still very much in its infancy. So, after hearing that story about Apple, do you... A) Walk past this enormous opportunity (and perhaps regret it later)... OR... B) Get involved now - before it's too late...? Listen... if you don...

The 10 Commandments Of A Great Marriage

One of the best ways to experience marital bliss is to clone successful marriages. In my many years of analyzing and gathering information about marriage and love relationships, I've noticed the consistent patterns that happy and successful marriage partners follow. They engage in weighty efforts to build strong bonds, take responsibility for bringing out the best in each other, and are quick to patch the holes in their relationship . These consistent patterns revolve around the fundamental principles that I call the 10 commandments of a great marriage. 1. YOU SHALL FORGIVE EACH OTHER'S FAULT AND LEARN TO SAY SORRY If there's anything you must learn early about relationship and marriage, it is to understand that love thrives on forgiveness. It's paramount to constantly forgive your spouse for their eccentricities and annoying habits, and also forgive yourself for any mistakes you make if you truly want to be happy in your marriage.
