Oh, how many philosophers, thinkers, writers, psychologists, theologians and other intelligent people were racking their brains over how found the meaning of life for .
And there is still no single recipe for how to make your life meaningful, how to reach a harmonious relationship with the world, how to accept death without fear and reproach, knowing that you have lived your life knowingly?
There is no single answer to this question, alas!
Everyone is looking for ways to find the meaning of life and become an absolutely happy person.
"Chivoi? The meaning of life is to find?"
There are people whose mission on earth is incomprehensible even to their creator.
It seems to me that they are already born dead.
Remember, as in "The Game of Thrones": "What is dead, can not die"?
So with them.
A person seems to have been born, matured, sort of about to find the very meaning of life and understand what he is here for.
And figushki!
I have a lot of such classmates, and also friends of my childhood.
The holidays that I spent with my grandmother encouraged me to make friends there.
One of the boy friends was Vasya.
Little Vasya was smart and played football very well.
As a child, none of us thought how to find the meaning of life, but it turned out that some, even growing up, did not look for anything.
With the approach of adolescence, it suddenly turned out that Vasya was "the first guy in the village" and a serious struggle arose among the girls for him.
Obviously, this fact impressed Vasya so much that even by the age of 25 he remained an useless infantile working at a car wash, without goals, without meaning, without aspirations.
Vasya has not received an education, he is not going to look for a normal job( "If the grandmother does not have enough, the old woman( in the sense - mom) will always throw out her pension"), he does not intend to establish his personal life either( the remnants of his former attraction allow him from time to time to remove unintelligibledesperate young ladies).
His hobby is the Comedy Club and the beer with friends on the bench at the entrance.
Last time I saw Vasya about 4 years ago.
I stopped chatting with a childhood friend, heard about his sad life, told a little about my achievements and asked if he did not think that 25 was the right age to find the meaning of life.
Almost my uncle was surprised, like a child, to my question and could only give out an inarticulate: "Chevoy? Haha you need to find the meaning of life? Che? ».
Further conversation was pointless.
Young people live like Vasya, aimlessly spoiling the air - it's just a sin.
Be smart, strong and bold!
Think about how to find the meaning of life!
Do not be like Vasya!
At what age should you try to find the meaning of life?
It's a sin for children to think about how to find the meaning of life.
Their task is to enjoy life, to study well, eat and please mom and dad with their successes and exemplary behavior.
But people after 20 years already would not be bothered to think about how to find the meaning of life, if you think that until you have not found it.
This does not mean that you should only try to find the meaning of life at a young age.
Regardless of how old you are( 20 or 70) you can always find your path in life if you turned off it.
And you do not have to convince yourself and others that it's too late to change something.
Trying to improve life and find what makes you happy is never too late.
On the contrary, it is with retirement that there is often a rethinking of your life, there is a lot of free time to realize your ideas.
Here I have a real example: our neighbor always regretted our brothers, feeding up stray dogs and cats.
But only having retired, she finally realized her dream: she began to volunteer in a shelter for homeless animals.
You would have seen how an elderly woman transformed in six months: she became active, lost weight, began to smile more and stopped complaining about health.
She managed to find her sense of life, even after 60 years.
You, by the way, can quite follow the example of Eugenia Petrovna and do charity work.
Those who help people, animals, solve environmental problems, and generally do something free for nothing, very often re-learns the meaning of life.
Find the meaning of life in books
I believe that books are not only a source of great wisdom, it is also a wonderful general reference book in which you can find answers to all questions.
Even in fiction, you can find many clues.
What can we say about books about personal growth, about the psychological reading, about the biographies of famous people, about the advice of illustrious coaches.
Yes it's just a storehouse of useful information.
In books you can find the meaning of life, and often without even trying to do it on purpose.
Just make yourself a habit of reading at least an hour before going to bed.
You can put yourself and another bar: read every week for one book.
So for a year you will accumulate a decent baggage of book knowledge.
Well, even if you do not find the very meaning of life that you are so actively looking for, then reading books is definitely not a hindrance.
Imagine, you will become so cleverer and more erudite in a few years with such a reader's chart.
Self-improvement: how to achieve it?
Finding the meaning of life can be achieved in achieving success
Everyone under the word "success" means something of their own.
Whatever your designation, I do not advise you to dismiss such components of success as career and money.
Build a career and earn money not to stupidly enrich, be able to eat lobsters, plump "Widow Clicquot" and "Hennessy" and kilograms to buy designer shmate, and in order to:
- Feel financially independent and not ask for handouts fromstate.
- Have the opportunity to travel, invest in your education and constantly evolve.
- Do something useful, for example, create jobs or implement some interesting project.
No one forces you to become a soulless grumbler robbing poor grandmothers, a useless politician-liar or a callous careerist, but few people can find the meaning of life in something spiritual and are fully capable of giving up material wealth.
It is better to combine material and spiritual - so there is more chance to find the meaning of life.
Find the meaning of life in the family
Okay, you are not a materialist, you are a lyricist, that's why you have a career, and you do not need money.
Then the meaning of your life is possible - family: your parents, grandparents.
You do not need to think how to find them, they are already close.
Take care of your parents, your grandparents, properly, repay them for all the good that they have done for you, for the life they gave you.
Fulfill their secret desire, give them their constant attention, listen with interest to their reflections, facilitate their life.
You should also think about creating your family, if you do not have it, about the birth of children.
Many in children find the meaning of life.
If you can not give birth to your children( alas, today many young couples are experiencing such problems), make happy some orphan.
Perhaps the higher powers will thank you for saving a little innocent life and send your baby for him to the company?
Similar cases are common.
To find your sense of life, do a little exercise,
, the essence of which is outlined in the following video:
Find the meaning of life, never to lose it
Sometimes we, having a sense of life, for some reason begin to doubt that this is exactly what wealways wanted that this is exactly what we have been trying to find for so long.
It seems to us that a small bird in the sky is much more attractive than a noble crane, which we hold tightly in our hands.
In pursuit of ghostly happiness, we lose what is really dear to us.
We do not know how to be grateful for what we have.
We always want more.
This is a right and natural desire, which leads to success, but it is important that it does not make us our slave.
To spend energy to achieve something, you need it when you really need it, when you are sure that it is your meaning of life, and not because "but suddenly come in handy," "but it has a neighbor""I do not know what it is, but it may be necessary."
It's important not even knowledge, how to find the meaning of life , and the skill, finding it, not to lose.
