Re-thinking life & success
Came across two articles about life’s priorities and defining success:
- Leo Babauta asks what would you do if you only had a short time to live?
- while Jonathan Mead writes about success becoming meaningless
Personally, these articles are not really fresh material, these are concepts I I try to live by in my life – my favourite question to myself when I make major decisions is, “What if I am going to die tomorrow?”. It never fails to help me prioritize and puts things in perspective a little.
However, it is just *so* easy to get caught up in the pragmatic drills of life, simply trying to survive, and forget your original objectives. These articles serve as a good reminder from time to time.
