A Philosophy For Life — Live Free
My philosophy of life is that a freely lived life is the highest form of life.
A life that is lived with taking the freedom you have and pushing that to the limits each and every day.
Live for you.
Be selfish! I really mean that. Be as selfish as you can!
Do what you want to do with your life and try to only do that. Say ‘Yes’ to only what you want to and ‘No’ to everything else.
Because, at the end of your life, it is you that dies.
No matter whose advice you followed, no matter who you helped or who you ignored, no one will be able to take your place then.
Now this does not mean you should elbow every person you come into contact with or hurt others around you to get ahead. You’ll likely find that that is not what you want to do anyway, as it leaves a big hole inside.
The point I want to make here is that you should do everything in your power to follow your own desire, your own dreams, and should do whatever you can to chase all of them, regardless of what anyone else says.
Ignore the nay-sayers and the doubters and make your own mistakes.
This includes not listening to any advice in this post if you think it’s stupid or if it does not agree with you!
