WORKWORKWORK
A long time ago, there was an Emperorwho told his
horsemanthat if he could ride on his horse and cover as much land
area as he likes, then
the Emperor would give him the area of land he has covered. Sure enough, the
horseman quickly jumped onto his horse and rode as fast as possible to cover as
much land area as he could.He kept on riding and riding, whipping
the horseto go as fast as possible. When he was hungry or tired, he
did not stop because he wanted to cover as much area as possible.
Came to a point when he had covered a substantial area and he was
exhaustedand wasdying. Then he asked himself, Why
did I push myself so hard to cover so much land area? Now I am dyingand I
only need a very small area to burymyself.
The above story is similar with the journey of our Life. We push very hard
everyday to make moremoney, to gain power andrecognition. We
neglect our health, time with our familyand to appreciate the
surrounding beauty and the hobbies we love.
One day when we look back , we will realize that we don't really need that
much, but then we cannot turn back timefor what we have missed.
Life is not about making money, acquiring power or recognition. Life is
definitely not about work!Work is only necessary to keep us living
so as to enjoy the beautyand pleasures of life. Life is a balance
of Work and Play, Family and Personal time. You have to decide how you want to
balance your Life. Define your priorities, realize what you are able to
compromise but always let some of your decisions be based on your
instincts.Happinessis the meaning and the purpose of
Life, the whole aim of human existence.
So, take it easy, do what you want to do and appreciate nature. Life is
fragile, Life is short. Do not take Life for granted. Live a balanced lifestyle
and enjoy Life!
Watch your thoughts; they becomewords.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character.
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.
