Daily Wisdom – Motivational Podcast – Day 547 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond
There are people who, in this world, unfortunately, live a life but not the one that they wish. They go through the motion of the day, but not the way they would like it to be. They’re just living a “borrowed life.” There is no reason to live a borrowed life; you can live your own life. You can have your own success.
You see, success is a personal thing, you just need to define it for yourself and then achieve it the way that you see it best, for you, not for anyone else. Designing your own definition of success takes a combination of philosophies and ideologies, but then it’s your own, it’s what you decide, and no matter how far along you are in your journey, no matter where you are in your success, you have to keep an eagerness to learn, to grow, to become better than you were the day before.
A person’s knowledge is only one part of their ability to become better. What is the measure of success? The results. That’s what matters. So a borrowed life would never give you what you want. What you need to do is, at the end of each day is measure that difference and see if you have achieved your dreams.
Most people just live and struggle to earn a living, but there is a smaller group of people who work at building and enjoying a fortune, and I don’t mean just financially, I mean also philosophically, spiritually, even physically.
Despite all the factors that affect our lives, none has as much potential power for affecting our future as our ability to dream. Dreams of the things that you want. You have to feed your dreams and starve your fears at all times. Dreams are a projection of the kind of life that you want to live. Dreams can drive you, they can make you skip over any obstacle, and when you allow your dreams to pull you, they unleash a creative force that can overpower any obstacles in your path. Think of the mountain climber. He doesn’t think he can’t make it; he knows that he will and he’s already thinking that he’s on top of that mountain that he’s climbing. He’s not thinking of the obstacles; he’s thinking of the results, the end results. So don’t live a borrowed life, live a life that you wish, the one that you want. To start anything, know that everything is possible for you. Dreams of the things that you’ve experienced in the past and that you’ve wished and put them to use; put them in the way that you want to now, and this way, it will be your life, not a borrowed life.
