You don’t get what you deserve. You get what you struggle for

go-for-the-jugular motivational note

We believe we deserve something along our lifetime: human beings are challenging to live on purpose.

Better said: struggling, because meaning of life is something you discover while you are living your life.

So the question is not

“What is the meaning of my living”, because you know every action is aimed at happiness, as Socrates taught us.

No, the right question is:

“What are you fighting for?”

When you are ready to answer it, you are ready to get for it.

No doubt.

No shyness.

No procrastination.

If we are right now,

still here:

  1. asking for,
  2. mumbling,
  3. chewing thoughts,

this could mean lack of courage and discomfort.

But take your time, dude.

No rush needed.

Focus your mind on that:

instead of demanding of knowing what you are living for,

ask yourself what you are fight for, what you would fight for.

Wait and see.

It is a kind of magic.
