Life - Just Like a Game of Ludo

Did I hear you say "Life is dicey"? Living life is like casting dice in a game of Ludo. A die has different faces but you only need one face to start your game; a six (6). Once you start, you can no longer predict the faces you display when you throw; maybe 1,2,3,4 or 5. You just play with whatever you have whether it moves your token to the finish square safely or it drags along, whether it takes you far or slows you down.

Feeling Bored? Spice Up Your Life!

Ever look at your life and feel like it's not what you thought it would be? A lot of people have felt that way at some point in their lives. We had this idea in our minds of how our life would be and it's nowhere near that. That could be for a number of reasons but regardless, I believe it's never too late to accomplish your goals and dreams. It's never too late to make a change. If you're feeling like your life is boring, that may be because you're not doing anything. You are not really participating in life. Life is happening all around you and you're sitting on the sidelines watching everyone else. You have to be honest with yourself. You should do an internal check-in with yourself. Where are you emotionally and mentally? Spiritually? Whether you are religious or spiritual or neither, I think prayer is something we've all heard of. If you believe in prayer, when is the last time you prayed for guidance? Day by day, life is happening. You only get to do this thing called life once. I don't think anyone wants to consider their life boring. A lot of things are in our control. For example, if you stay home all the time and never go anywhere, you associate with the same people, you never try anything new, that's a choice. You're choosing to do that. We all choose to do what we do. The reality is that nothing changes until YOU change. You must decide to. So if you're feeling bored, here are a few tips to spice up your life:

Your Life Is Waiting On You! When Are You Going To Show Up?

I first heard the phrase 'start before you're ready' from Marshawn Evans. I thought to myself she must be crazy. I can't start before I'm ready. Well I have to be honest. Marshawn was right. Once I got enough courage to do my own event, I thought to myself that I wish I would've started sooner.
Your Life Matters. Your life is waiting on you. Many of us are waiting for the perfect time to start our business, the perfect time to travel, the perfect time to move, the perfect time to buy a new car, the perfect opportunity, etc. While it makes sense to wait to do certain things so you don't appear to be completely irrational or illogical, the reality is that there's never going to be a perfect time. Perfection doesn't exist. Sometimes you just have to take a risk. You have to do something different.

How To Overcome Feeling Stuck In Life

It's All Perception
You've tried everything to improve your life, but nothing changes. Frustration develops and you're disappointed because you're unable to resolve the situation.
Allow me to put your mind at ease over the coming paragraphs.
Here's the good news. Remaining stuck is only a perception and does not represent your actual reality.
Now the not-so-good news. Feeling stuck is a sign something needs to change in your life. You might have an intuitive impulse to make those changes, but resist doing so for fear of change.

4 Ways To Simplify Your Life Right Now

In a period of information overload, there's never been a better time to simplify life.
The raging struggle of modern existence can lead to inner turmoil if we're unaware.
The key to living an inspired life is to simplify it. To gain clarity on what's important, let go of unnecessary conditions and tune into what you value most. Most people chase material possessions believing they'll be happy, only to realise it makes matters worse.
The more clutter in your life, the less capable you are of knowing what's important to you since you are distracted by insignificant issues that vie for your attention. Naturally, you react to what is taking place before you instead of what's essential.
Health, relationships, family and living my purpose are central aspects to my life nowadays. It's taken an entire lifetime to reach this point, yet it's well worth it. That which brings you joy and happiness require the least effort.

The Free World: Is Anything Free In This World?

It is very natural and common for people to want to get things for free and live without any caution or discipline of law. People want freedom to do anything they like, and go anywhere they like. They hate to be told what to do and how to do things and this kind of attitude have led many to failure and sometimes to early grave. This is a childlike attitude, a child wants to eat sugar alone, but the adult helps the child to control his diet for a healthy living. Freedom is the ability to discipline yourself to do only those things that will help you to move forward in life.
There is one thing though about freedom, and that is the fact that it becomes something else when your freedom becomes a burden to other people. Any freedom you express that is causing headache to another person is not freedom at all, it is now an oppression of other people. When you use your freedom to earn and enjoy money to rob other people of their labour or hard earned money, you are not doing a good service to mankind. Freedom is freedom indeed when it does not infringe on other people's right. It is a free world for all, not just for you, consideration must be given to others.

The Most Significant Ways To Reclaim Your Life



How To Make Sense Of Chaos


You may believe your life is spinning out of control.


However, it's a misguided perception because you're invested in your circumstances and unable to see an alternative solution.


I'm drawn to the tale by Anthony de Mello which highlights our reaction to life:

Making Good Choices

Daily, our choices make us who we are. What, where and who we are is the sum of all those choices added together to right now. Now is such an important concept. Now is the only time that you have the chance to go out and get exactly what you are looking to achieve. There is no promise of tomorrow. To do this you must realize you have everything you need right now. Stop waiting for that something to happen because it never will until you make it happen.
Goals are meant to be achieved. This fruit that we bear because someone has dreamt. The way to achieve the goal is by going after the challenges. Decide that you are going to start today. The best way to do this is to build your mind. The best way to build your mind is to learn. Books, mentors, seminars, conferences and everyday life has a beautiful offering of ways to learn.
We are all given challenges. Those challenges are meant to be overcome. Know in your heart of hearts that you can achieve. These obstacles are the hard parts of life that become beautiful memories. Even in death. Think to someone you knew. When you think of them bring to the surface the great memories you have of them. Know those people that have come before wanting us to move forward in the best fashion. That means to live your life fully no matter what. Do not let their passing go unnoticed. You are perfect to know the lesson those people wanted to share with the world. Share their message.
Our actions will prove what direction that we want to go. Act. Think. Act again. Be the best that you can be. There are no more excuses to be sitting around. Are people calling you insane by your actions? Then you aren't succeeding unless that answer is yes. I enjoy acting. You will enjoy acting. We must put in the work together to become the person we know is inside.
Your dreams? Do you have dreams? Guess what? That dream is yours. Stop coming up with excuses. Write that book. Make that music. Build that company. Network until you make it happen. Invest everything you must become the person you want to become. Time, money and effort are only human thoughts. Do what you must to make your dream come into this life and humanity will thank you for it.

Importance of Taking Risk in Life

Is life devoid of risk? Surely not! Our lives are full of risks of all shapes and sizes. When we go on road we risk getting hit by a vehicle; when we take an examination we risk failing; and when we start a business we risk losing the capital. In fact life is full of risks. Should we completely stop taking any risk? It's like asking should we stop living. Stop giving too much thought to risks.
It's part of the human nature to avoid taking a risk. However, if you dream big then you must be ready to take chances. The human history is full of examples when people took huge risks and got incredible success. If you want to achieve great success then you must be taking big risks too. There is no big gain without big risks. The richest people in the world are mostly businessmen. They take huge risks in starting their ventures. Statistically most businesses fail. However, when a business venture becomes a success it generates a huge amount of money for its owners. Most of us have to fight against the odds and risk big things in order to gain any success.
Not only average people, but even fairly successful ones have to take risks to achieve a bigger success. The world famous animation filmmaker Walt Disney had to put all his money in his dream project Disney World. He also took huge amounts of loan to build the tourist attraction based in Florida in the US. The risk paid him off well and today more than 5 crore people visit Disney World annually, making it one of the world's most popular tourist destinations. He was lucky that he achieved success with the venture. It could have gone the other way and he could have lost all he had earned in his life.
The film industry is full of examples of filmmakers putting all money in a venture and losing big time. The legendary filmmaker Guru Dutt was broke after his film Kaagaz Ke Phool bombed at the box office, while another famous director Raj Kapoor suffered heavy losses when his dream project Mera Naam Joker was a commercial failure. Both were successful filmmakers of their era but lost money in those ventures. However what made them winners was that they kept taking further risks and both made lots of money in their next ventures, Chaudhvin Ka Chand and Bobby respectively.
Several times you have to take risk to get a bigger success even if you are quite comfortable in your life. Rajkumar Hirani was a successful advertisement film maker, running his own advertising studio before 2003. However he wanted to make his mark in the Hindi film industry and took the risk by refusing to take new advertisement projects to focus on his film venture. He kept writing script of a new film while his advertisement film career was going down as a result. It was a risk because he could not have found any producer for his film and there was no guarantee that the film would become a success at the box office, ensuring further work for him. Still, Hirani took the gamble. He looked for a film producer once the script was ready. Luckily he got a producer and his film became a critical and commercial success on its release. The title of the film was Munnabhai M. B. B. S.
