Before you die, you should be able to say that you made a mark on
this world, that you used all of the gifts you have been given to their
fullest extent and that understood the beauty of what it means to be
human. We are presented the opportunities to become the best version of
ourselves we could possibly be, and everybody wants to be able to say
that they took advantage of these chances to see how far life’s
rewarding journey could take them.
I followed my heart and passion:
As the late and great Steve Jobs once said: “Your time is limited, so
don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma,
which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let
the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice, heart and
intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become.
Everything else is secondary.”
Never forget that this is your life and there is a reason you are who
you are. Take what is inside you and validate your dreams by making
them a reality. Don’t let others stop you from doing what you truly
would love to do. Go where you want to go. The sky is the limit.
I said what I had to say:
You must say what you need to say when you need to say it. It may be
your only chance to do so. Don’t censor yourself. Speak from your heart.
The worst thing you can possibly do to your future and overall well
being is hold something in and let it eat you alive. Stand up for what
you believe in and if you feel the need to reveal a harsh truth to
explain yourself, do it. Trust me, you will feel a lot better once you
get if off your chest and know that you made the outside world aware of
what it was doing to you. If others don’t accept it, it’s their problem,
not yours.
I did what I had to do:
Do all you can to give yourself the life you have always dreamed of
instead of waiting around for something to happen because it never will.
The greatest gift the elite of this world have over other people is
the ability to get themselves to engage in the necessary actions that
will eventually reward them with fruition and satisfaction.
I made a difference in this world:
Act as if what you do makes a difference in the lives of other people because it does. The most meaningful way to measure a legacy is by the impact someone has on the world around them and the steps they took to change it for the better.
Do something that’s greater than you – something that helps someone else to be happy or to suffer less. The difference you make in today’s world is something no one can ever take away from you.
