HOW TO LIVE A FULFILLING LIFE AND INSPIRE OTHERS

Life is meant to be fulfilling and rewarding but has become a cruel society because of our GREED and failure to contribute our little efforts to change something.

Regardless of background and demographic features, we can make our planet a better place to live. Your wealth, personality, position and experience are irrelevant until you influence someone to succeed. We can create the change and inspire others to do the same. You require not so much, the practice of the following can make life worth living;

Be Yourself

You are different. There is no one like you in the whole world. You are unique. Your finger print is an affirmation of this word. Do not live a fake life to meet standard of a group, family or friends. Do not do things because someone did it. Choose your way of life. Many people compete and compare themselves with their peers; they obtained loan to buy a car, phones and even to “throw” elaborate wedding party.  Do not make this mistake. It will expose you to traumatic moments which can affect your wellbeing and indirectly the people around you. Stop Comparison and Competition

“The Only One You Should Be In Competition with Is Yourself”

-―  Naomi Lucas

Give a Smile

A smile is one of the most powerful gifts that you can give to someone. It is a free gift of nature. You have the power within you to create that ability to smile. Your smile has the ability to lift someone into a state of euphoria and eliminate their fears and sorrow. You have the power within you to change people’s attitudes and lives, all you have to do is smile.

“You smile at someone, and they at another person, and that person at someone else, and the change begins. You have the power to make the world a much nicer place to live in and all you have to do is smile “

―  Lorelei Cohen

Help People To Grow

Many helped a friend, family and neighbour and they were either not appreciated or even implicated. Nevertheless, it is a principle of fulfilment. You are who you are today because people helped you and are still helping you. Help can be in any form. You can mentor a child, give alms, assist with job placement etc.  If you help someone, it is like casting bread on water, it will return to you in many folds.

The person you helped today will never forget you in history. Helping a child to grow, funding a child’s education, honouring that invitation to talk to youth for free, donating time, expertise and money to a change cause will definitely reduce mediocrity, fight corruption and assist to build a better society.

“No one has ever become poor by giving.”
― Anne Frank

Express the Compliments

Compliments lifts people’s courage and keep them going. People will work with confidence and accomplish task quickly because they are happy. This happiness will naturally flow from the word like “you look good today”, “your face his shinning brighter today”, “this shirt looks smart on you”, “wow, you have really done well”. Be honest and sincere with your compliments and you will make your day and their day fulfilling without noticing it.

“Pay it forward with free compliments. They are returned in due time.”
― David Chiles

Forgive

Forgiveness is the virtue of the brave. It is very expensive, it takes a rich heart to buy; and without it, the heart loses greater part of its peace.  When anger grows within you do not let it transform to bitterness.  Bitterness is like excess load on the ship and if not jettisoned would result in ship wreckage leading to greater loss.

Unforgiveness is a burden, it will weigh you down no matter how strong you are and also prevent you from fulfilling your purpose to humanity. The person who hurts you today may turn out to be your saviour tomorrow.  Just let it go.

“The truth is, unless you let go, unless you forgive yourself, unless you forgive the situation, unless you realize that the situation is over, you cannot move forward.”
