    • Pple, have u ever think abt ur life?  How do u set goals & achieve them?

      I have been tryin to set some goals/targets in my life but i have nver seem to b able to focus thus unable to achieve...I duno wat's wrong with me..icon_lol.gif

      I have just started readin a book titled "Life $kill".  In the 1st chapter, the author mentioned abt who or wat r the pple who achieved goals.  In order to b able to set, focus & achieve goals...one has to know wat's one's purpose in life..

      Dang! Now Im thinkin..wat's my purpose in life?  Still unable to fathom.. icon_confused.gif

      Wat do u guys know abt ur purpose in life then?  Show me some lights, please.  ^^

      *Smacks TS on the head*

      We live to reproduce! No pain no gain, give up your childish desires and go for your goals(If you wish to) and if only you can find happiness in it.

    • u can set small time goals (going vegetarian for one week) or big time goals (save up for that car u really want). all this gives u sense of accomplishment and satisfaction, and that's what makes every bit of life interesting! i dont know what is my purpose in life..but being in LOVE definitely makes this world a whole lot more beautiful! ^^

    • Can't really summarize how I lead life. If I have to vaguely and inaccurately, it would be: Take a chill pill. WOOHOO!!

       

      Life can be so much more if you make it to be. icon_wink.gif

      How would you like to be remembered when you're dead? And be honest to yourself when answering this question.

      Preferably by the people whom you cared most about and your loved ones of course.

      That would be a good way for you to start thinking about your purpose in life.


      Don't need to tell me your purpose in life, I'm not interested to know.

    • To me the, the purpose of human life is pretty standard for everyone.

      When you are a baby, you just want to eat, sleep everyday and grow up.

      When you are a child, you want study, learn, play everyday and grow up.

      When you are a teenage, you want make friends, get some special achievements and grow up.

      When you are a young adult, you want a career, want to get attached and earn as much money as possible.

      When you are middle-age adult, you want your own home, you want your own family and earn as much money as possible.

      When you are getting old and you know that you are going to die, you want to reflect on your past actions, want to meditate, want to die peacfully and go heaven.


      What your current purpose in life is dependant on your age.

      Of course, if you know you are going to die soon, then better skip the lesser purpose and redirect your energy towards the ultimate purpose, and that is to die peacefully and go heaven. Why? Because when you die, does it really matters how many thousands of dollars in your bank account, how many PhD paper qualifications you obtained, how many boy friends or girl friends you have, how many business and landed property you have? The answer is no.

      We all know that we are going to die one day and all that we achieved or gained in life, we are sure to lose them all. The only "things" that you can take with you when you die is your karma(merits and demerits),  your wisdom(if any),  your relationship with God(if you have one).

      totally agree with you...if u keep thinking on achieving your goals, u will be stressed up....so no meaning trying to achieve ur goals and stress..
