Sometimes, you just have to ask ...

What Is The Meaning Of Life?

You don’t have to be a philosopher to ask this is age-old question. This is the kind of question that we all just can’t help but ask in all seriousness, or in child-like wonder at some point in our life.

This question stands up there with some of these other equally wondrous questions:

Why Are We Here?

And

Is There A Point To All This Suffering?

In fact, this question that has most likely been pondered by just about everyone that has ever existed in the entirety of the human race.

Who doesn’t want to have a solid understanding as to “Why?”

So, without waxing on about the why of “Why?”, … let’s break down the obvious and get to the heart of What Life’s Meaning Is.

1. You are Here, whether you want to be here or not.

This is about as obvious as you can get. (So, saying that “you did not ask to be born” is laughably irrelevant.)

Moving on …

2. Who creates Meaning in your life?

You do, of course!

You are existing in the very center of your very own perceptual universe — surrounded by what may well be an infinite cosmos.

This realization alone has the potential to make you feel infinitely unique, … or infinitely small in the scope of existence.

Whatever the case, whatever your thoughts or emotions, it is obvious that you (your mind and emotions) are actively reacting to your living environment and continuously assigning meaning to every aspect of your current life’s experiences.

3. Who creates Purpose in your life?

The obviousness seems to carry on here, doesn’t it? But this is actually a gray area for the great majority in our westernized civilization.

Parenting, and the Question of Maturity aside:

The life of a human being is not always ideal. Many rules and limitations may be forcibly imposed upon each of us; giving unwanted power to some other Person, Government, or Society who will not allow you the freedom to pursue what you may feel to be your life’s best and greatest potential. They would just as happily give you an assigned purpose, than to let you determine your life for yourself.

By acknowledging this reality: Purpose is not actually found in the level of freedom you were born into, raised in, or allowed to have.

Purpose is actually found in the challenges your life presents to you.

The Actual Meaning Of Life

Any and all challenges in your life are meaningful opportunities for you to intelligently and creatively overcome such obstacles and personal limitations — that is, of course, … if you are up for the challenge!

Taking on personal challenges is what makes people great!!

It creates a focusing purpose in your life – whether it be mental, physical, or spiritual.

Overcoming Challenges is the True Nature of Purpose.

The True Nature of Purpose, Is the Meaning You Assign to Your Challenges.

Overcoming Challenges is the Attainment of a Worthy Goal.

And the Attainment of a Worthy Goal invariably leads to a Life of Satisfaction.

Summary:

The Meaning of Your Life is about how you uniquely feel in the way you choose to live your life.

So, in what way can you overcome life’s challenges in order to live your life with the greatest satisfaction possible?

Self-determination is your key to unlocking the secret of your life’s success story. But, if you truly have no ambition in life … it just might suck to be you, because you obviously have not opened yourself up to the possibilities of achieving something truly worthy of your efforts!

After all … it’s your life.

Overcoming Challenges With A Successful Mind-Set

What helps you overcome Life’s Challenges is the type of Mind-Set you choose to adopt for yourself.

The way to attain the proper Mind-Set in overcoming life’s obstacles, is where you must first visualize the life you want to have … and how to best embrace the kind of person you truly want to be.

Life, in many ways, has the tendency of seemingly coming off as being cruel and unfair.

Life purpose is in its inherent nature to exist by overcoming environmental challenges (cruelty and unfairness is par for the course).

But by finding some intelligent, clever, or creatively unique, way to transform and adapt oneself, just about anyone can manage to thrive and survive in any challenging social environment.

Remember: Your Mind-Set is your Transformational Power.

Your Self-determination is your strength — the more self-determined you are, the greater your focus, discipline, and odds for success becomes.

Only you can change yourself for the better.

Your Mind-Set is Your Personal Evolution in Being.

A Worthy Goal

First, you must let go of the past, and look toward your future, by making the most out of your present situation.

You must take an honest look at what may be holding you back in life to then acquire the necessary strength, courage, and knowledge to overcome these limiting factors. (This may mean changing from a negative current social situation into a positively supportive new one.)

Change can be Difficult: Even though it may be difficult, find a way to create balance in your life — find a way to combine work with pleasure.

Commit yourself to a Passion Project that you know will give you a wonderful sense of self-fulfillment and the greatest level of personal satisfaction.

Turn your Passion Project into a Money Maker!

The Meaning behind Success and Failure

We may not always succeed in our goals. But, as a great American Essayist once said about Life and Self-Reliance:

Ultimately, the Meaning of Life is the challenge already set before you.
Now: it’s all about how determined you are in Making Your Dreams Become Reality.

Live your life well!
