5 Tips On How To Live A Good Life

Living the good life means different things to different
people. There is, however, a slightly ambiguous,
mutual understanding.
It deals with the simple pleasures that make you
happy, the compassionate deeds you perform, the
personal goals you strive to achieve, the relationships
you nurture and the legacy you leave behind. Sincere
personal fulfillment is generally the collective end
result. The good life is also about appreciating all your
time, not just your leisure time. Far too many people
get caught up in the mad rush of a corporate lifestyle
and grow completely numb to the little moments
shared with loved ones, the simple building blocks of
time that make life magical. Time, after all, is the
single greatest element of life.
5 Tips On How To Live A Good Life
1. IT’S NOT JUST ABOUT YOU
You were lied to, when you were told that if you
worked enough hours, got enough stuff, and followed
enough rules, that you’d be okay.
That you’d be happy. But now, hopefully, you know
the truth: We only find fulfillment when we let go of
comfort, when we risk losing everything. That’s what
a really good story, and incidentally what a really
good life, is all about.
2. Passion Is Not Optional
It’s not enough to simply commit to a task and do it
really well for the rest of your life. You were put on
this earth to do something, something specific.
Until you do, you will be anxious and on-edge.
Passion is what we need to have a fulfilled, whole
life. Of course, passion alone won’t necessarily get
you everything you want, but without it, you will die
a slow, bitter death.
3. Just because it’s hard doesn’t mean you shouldn’t
do it
Anything worth doing shouldn’t be easy. It will
require courage and strength from you, otherwise, it’s
probably not worth doing at all. Nobody goes to the
gym to feel good, and have fun. They go there to
sweat and scream and stretch themselves. And they
leave better versions of the people that entered an
hour before. If you’re going to grow, life will at times
be hard. Get used to it.
4. EMBRACE FEAR AS A PART OF LIFE
Why do we all get fearful. We shouldn’t fear fear. We
should embrace fear as a part of life. Fear is the
flinch, telling us that we could die.
It reminds us of what’s dangerous and why we’re
prone to avoid pain. Fear is good. It keeps us alive,
but it also keeps us compliant if we’re not careful. My
rule of thumb is this, if I don’t feel afraid of doing
something, then I’m probably playing it too safe, and
i’m not getting into risks which is not a good
perception of life .
5. VALUES ARE BETTER THAN GOALS
If you don’t know where you stand at work, friends
and family when an opportunity to succeed at
something comes along, you’ll screw it up.
The best way to get your life in order. Screw the
goals and skip the plans. Jump straight to values,
your non-negotiable for how you do business, treat
your loved ones, and do life. Everything else falls
under this. Sure, plans are good and goals are fine.
But even Hitler had goals. The Nazis had a very well-
designed plan. That’s not enough to live a good life.
You have to have values, good ones, in order for your
life to make a positive dent in this universe.
This tips should help you discover the real you and
the strength to carry on in this crazy and stressful
world we live in, look at the world from another
perspective and thing should turn out just fine for
you. Don’t give up on yourself just yet.
