News flash! Life is not a competition. It’s not about being smarter, or richer, or better than Judy, or Joe, or your brother, or sister, or anyone else you went to school with. Living life like a giant contest only gives you just enough time to catch your breath and run the next sprint.
If you feel like life’s questions are:
- Who am I trying to impress?
- What am I really trying to accomplish?
- When will I be able to relax and be myself?
- Where is all this taking me?
- Why is winning so important?
- How can I get my sanity back?
Maybe they could be:
- Who can I love?
- What can I do to help someone else?
- When can I spend more time with those I love?
- Where are my opportunities to be kind?
- Why didn’t I do this sooner?
- How can I make this world a better place?
When things get a little crazy-ass-backwards take a deep breath and remember . . . it’s never too late to start asking different questions.
