Thank you for a brilliant talk. I have taken some lovely things away from this. I will meditate on these words and serve people. Choosing Life above existence. I need that over anything. Thanks for motivating me to carryover on..... Designer Sarees

I suppose it means having the bravery to honestly confront your elderly way of thinking and having the perseverence to move on and learn from negative they tried to film but they didn't feel "welcome". orlando villas

Thanks for your comment. I'm glad you liked the article. Of course this can be achieved for you or anyone, it just takes a strong desire, a belief in yourself, some goals and plans, and of course perseverance, like you said, to make it happen. Oh and… have fun every step of the way!

I think this article is brilliant and is true in everything it says. I think I am guilty of alot of the negative beliefs that prevent us from living rather than existing e.g. trying to fit in and seeking approval from others instead of figuring out what i really want and taking responsibility to go after it. I am however aware of alot of these bad habits, I just hope that I can find a way to move past them and your article really does give encouragement that this can be achieved. I suppose it just means having the courage to honestly confront your old way of thinking and having the perseverence to move on and learn from negative experiences like you say. Keep up the good work!!

I totally agree with your distinction about existing v living, but as you say at the end we are none os us in one category or the other. We all hover somewhere in the middle and shift about. I thought the opening paragraphs appeared negative because you opened with all the negatives about existing. This would proably put off the very readers you want to attract.

many thanks
