You also have this thing where…
When driving, your mind starts wandering off and you start thinking about all these deep, philosophical topics about life?
Well, I do.
Yesterday I was driving home from work when it happened again.
I don’t remember why, or what triggered me to think about it, but I started thinking about the ‘meaning of life’.
Now,
Why is a 21 year old thinking about the meaning of life instead of going out with his friends on a Friday night?
Because I’m not a normal 21 year old.
I mean, heck.
I’m balancing a full time job with an online business, eating healthy, training 3-4 times a week, while looking for an apartment.
Anyway,
So I was thinking about the meaning of life.
And my conclusion was the same conclusion I always come to when I think about that topic. (Yes, I think about it quite often.)
For me, the meaning of life is:
Improvement
You could call it ‘Kaizen’ or ‘Continues self-improvement’ or ‘1% better everyday’, whatever.
What you call it doesn’t matter.
But for me, my best days. My days where I go to bed feeling good about myself…
Those are the days where I’ve done something that made me better.
Could be developing a skill, learning something new, doing something out of my comfort zone… Or just sticking to my diet and workout schedule.
Especially that last one.
I just know that when I stick to my plan. Good things happen.
More,
It has a ‘ripple’ effect on everything else I do in my life. It’s the habits that get the ball rolling and build momentum for everything else (good) in my life.
And the opposite is true as well.
If I don’t get in my workout, or don’t sick to my diet. Or I don’t sleep well… It has a negative effect on everything else.
And that’s why for me, the whole point of living is to keep improving.
Because, if not… life’s just sad.
So, if you haven’t yet, this is your sign to get your workout in and go bake some eggs.
And if you have any questions related to that, ask away.
