« You are not running out of time »
– Rahul Bijlani, via rahulbijlani.comA revolutionary thought! The point of my life was to enjoy it to its potential, with goals to set the direction in which I was headed.
This was my new definition of the game.
And it meant it was impossible to run out of time, because every day was a brand new opportunity to play and win.
The point being — you're not wasting your time if you're doing what makes you happy. Rahul used to worry about the goalposts always moving, making success just a new starting point for another, more impossible, farther goal which implies success.
It's often tough for me, but I've found that the best way to be happy is to look at all experiences as valuable, even your "failures".
