Simple truths about your life;
imagine that:
The TV was on in the background. I was and wasn’t listening. Suddenly my ears perked up. Someone in a power position (who will remain anonymous to avoid bias) was speaking about what he learned from his dad.
“Two things,” he said. I listened and understood that these two principles really underscore the philosophy of Life Achievement Center, and maybe life in general. Profoundly simple. Truth usually is. Imagine that!
Here is what he said:
“Always try to help people who need help. That is the most noble thing you can do.”
“If you know you’re doing the right thing and you keep at it, if you persist, God (your Higher Power) will make sure you succeed. Keep at it, keep at it and you can get things done.”
After all, why are we here if not to help one another.
It is amazing and inspiring to see how in times of crises people rally together to help rescue someone in times of distress. People sitting on roof tops after a flood, feeding those fleeing for their lives from disasters, saving people from burning cars…
Imagine more of us helping one another on a regular day. Something simple like driving thoughtfully without flipping off someone who annoys you. Imagine no road rage.
And yes, when you persist in your life goals, you succeed. You do not need to be the smartest, the strongest, the most handsome or beautiful. Perseverance gets you to the finish line. Imagine that.
And rarely, if ever, does anyone do it single handedly. When you seek the help of others and are encouraged by them, you succeed. All benefit in a positive way.
Two basic principles. Help one another. Persist in your life goals. Imagine that. So simple. So life changing. Not just for your life, but for all of us. And the words of John Lennon come to mind:
“You may say I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one. I hope some day you’ll join us and the world will live as one.”
