Weak people chase pleasure. Strong people chase purpose.

What is your purpose in life?

Do you seek your greatest satisfaction out of accomplishing something of value or do you feel most fully satiated when you have attained pleasure through whatever experiences, people, animals or material items that create those feelings for you?

When we are driven by elements that provide the required inertia to kick our heels out of bed and participate in the life experience before us, we have a life force that feels to be indomitable at times.

This life force drives countless experiences, motivates numerous expenditures of time and money and ultimately may pay off with nothing more than a sense of self-satisfaction, which is non-convertible into anything material of value.

Why then do people pursue that element of time engagement?

If you believe that your time expended is delivering qualifiable results, even if only to yourself, you are going to be that much more motivated to continue to pursue those investments. In doing so, you may discover why you might be willing and desirous to extend yourself even further in that line of pursuit in order for you to ultimately achieve whatever you have delineated as your ultimate goal in having set your sites on such interests and activity.

When an intellectual is presented opportunity to dig deeper within themselves in order that they might uncover knowledge, values, principles, interests and theories, they are considerably more willing to sacrifice other aspects of their lives.

They may do this in order that they might have ample opportunity to drill down deeper on whatever that distraction requires in order that they might top off their internal reservoir with satiated feelings of having leveraged the qualities that make them unique towards whatever goal or outcome they had conceived at the outset of their decision to have made that commitment.

If you find yourself making these kind of decisions in your life, you are most likely on a road to a deeper sense of satisfaction than solely experiencing short term gratification.

Take a big chance and fully explore your purpose in life. It will pay off for you in ways that you may never have imagined.

Happy Monday!
