DECISION DETERMINES YOUR DESTINY

Introduction


In this life, everyone starts on an equal footing. Except for those whose benevolent parents or relatives left money, everyone must create their own destiny. Henry Ford was quoted as saying “that if you think you can or you think you cannot you are right”. In other words, whatever you choose to make out of your life, it is up to you.

The truth is that life has no friend or foe. It can be good or bad. It is really up to you to choose what to make out of your life. You become its friend or enemy to the extent you are able to master or break its principles.

So what are lives great principles and how do we harness and apply them to live a good life? Lets learn how below.

Ask pertinent questions

One of the great principles of life is that you must decide to do something and make the commitment to accomplish what you have decided to do. To discover the route to take towards achieving your life’s purpose, you may ask yourself some pertinent questions such as: What exactly am I here to fulfil in this life? Why am I alive? Is it just to eat and drink, sleep and wake up, grow old and die? Is it to get married and have children? Or is there more to this life than I can see?

Having asked those soul stirring questions the next step is to answer them frankly.

Give quality answers

Answering those questions for many people is an enormous task. While for others the answer does not matter at all. For a few others, the answer is crucial and could lead to the attainment of anything worthwhile in this life.

Answering above questions becomes critical for a few individuals who have made that decision to become persons to be reckoned with in this life. For them, every minute spent on this planet must count for something.

Time is a wasting asset. Time is valuable and utilised to create a preferred future. Time is quantifiable and attached to achievement of worthy goals. Time must not be wasted because any time used up pursuing a worthy cause or wasted by doing nothing, can never be replaced or recovered.

After giving quality answers to those questions, you must identify the exact vocation you must pursue.

Identify where you belong

After giving quality answers to those questions, you must identify the exact vocation you must pursue.

Consider the above thoughts and identify where you belong. Are you one of those people searching for that “one thing” or are you careless about what the day brings? Any how you look at it and no matter where you fall in, the critical question that arises, is how to move your life from the level it is to a higher level? You owe yourself the task of identifying your place in life and giving the pursuit and realization of your vocation the maximum effort it deserves.

The solution

Decide to make a difference, choose to stand for something and choose to become great. The next thing to do is to start. Have the courage and enthusiasm to pursue your choice passionately.

Following above mentioned steps with dedication to your chosen field of endeavour, will undoubtedly lead to the attainment of your goals. You will achieve your goal if you are determined to do so. Just pursue it with the dexterity of a bulldog after an elusive bone rather than remaining still. The law of motion states that “nothing will move until a force is applied to it”

Make that choice today to create a better future for yourself. Do something valuable with your time or life. Don’t just drift along and live a worthless life.

A word is enough for the wise. Be among the wise and let your decision determine your destiny.

Yours in success,
