“Really it comes down to your philosophy. Do you want to play it safe and be good or do you want to take a chance and be great? . Who in your opinion is the greatest living philosopher? Philosophers used to be very popular, spending time with ordinary people to help them live extraordinarily. It’s been said by many of the great philosophers, you’ve got to take the good with the bad, smile with the sad, love what youve got, and remember what you had. Nowadays everyone has their own philosophy in life and isn’t reserved only for the scholarly and deeply poignant thinkers. A person’s life philosophy is a combination of their beliefs, tastes, interests, prejudices, successes and failures, attitudes, lifestyle and so on. It’s in all of us and our life philosophy defines how we will live, lead, and develop relationships. We all have a god-like delusion that things should always go my way, and if they don’t… well, they just should! Every day, things happen to us that are outside of our control. Companies downsize, 150 people apply for the same part-time job, friends move on and relationships end. Life happens. It isn’t what happens to us that determines the quality of our lives, it’s what we do after we’ve set our sails and the wind decides to change direction. When winds change, we must change. If you change even the slightest thing then you would have to change everything and if you decide to change nothing then you would live exactly the same life again and again. Success in life is not determined by your circumstances, but by your actions. It’s not what you know but what you do with what you know Its about looking back into your life, having a good look at what youve got, and then making it work. It’s about being honest with yourself. Brutally honest—honest about everything! Clear the clutter inside your mind and realize what you have right now. What you have in life now was once everything you strove to attain. Too often people don’t realize what they have because they are out there looking for something better. The thing is, very few people can see the impact of what they do now and how it relates to their futures. Just because something isn’t happening for you right now does not mean that it never will. It’s not about being poor or rich, successful or not – it’s what’s important to you, the core of your being, and you’re submerging to it. Yes we need to make a living, try making a living and finding work you love doing Remember you need to keep looking for those few things that make the most difference in your life, and spend most of your time doing those things. Even if everything else is going wrong in your life, you still get to control how you look, and how you feel every day. The only way we can truly be happy is to realize that our thoughts, emotions, actions, and decisions are our responsibility and no one else’s. We only get one life on this planet, there are no continues. Give life to your life.
