What Are You Living For?

"Nobody will ever get far who cannot clearly define what he is aiming for in life"

It is imperative to ask this question at a time like this. Everyday I wake up, I used to notice a mad rush by people to get to a particular location: work, school et al. it has always pricked my heart witnessing this because it has become a daily routine for these people. You see people wake up very early to beat the rush and they come back late at night exhausted and this continues on and on.

It is very important for us to define what we are living for at a rather young age so that we don't get stuck in the rat race later in life. So many people that have found themselves in this situation couldn't explain how they got there and couldn't even decipher how they will get out.

If it is your desire to arrive at a destination you will enjoy, NOW is the time for you to start working on it. Distractions will always be there but somehow, you have to get started if you want to enjoy your life in years to come. There are so many people out there who have not clearly stated where they want to be in years to come and where they eventually arrive won't be a surprise to anyone at all: nowhere!

When you are sure you are living for a purpose, so many things will not bother you. Even if your dreams are not materialising, you will be sure it is going to definitely be for a while and you are going to reach your destination later. In case you are really not sure you are living for something, it is NEVER too late. Remember, IT IS NEVER TOO LATE!
