Chapter 24: Become useful person in life
In the most difficult times of life,
don’t try to be a successful or happy person,
better yet,
become a person of value. — Albert Einstein
************************
Our life is about trying and working.
Complete rest awaits us only in the graves. — F. Destoevski
************************
Usually, people are just a little bit different,
but it’s those little differences that make the big difference.
That tiny difference is attitude.
The big difference is
whether the attitude is positive or negative. — Napoleon Hill
************************
When we look back on our actions,
what we should avoid is moaning
about the opportunities we missed,
about the paths we should have taken.
Instead, take a positive approach:
don’t waste time on fleeting regrets.
The secret to correcting the mistakes in our habits
and to enjoying every moment of life
is to stay young both in heart and mind,
no matter how old you are.
If you do not know how to live young,
then you have wasted your time. – W. Clement Stone
************************
Life always presents people with many challenges
and it is those challenges
that make the difference between them.
In any situation, each person has two choices,
either to become a burden on family and society,
or to become a useful person.
This choice is the result of each person’s attitude to life.
While optimists always see things from a positive perspective,
pessimists fail to do so.
They always feel regret
for what happened in the past
as well as worry too much about the future.
This attitude of life has greatly influenced their thinking and life,
as well as that of those around them.
You are only truly useful
when you dare to accept responsibility for yourself.
When you accept responsibility,
you are forced to work with
both your mind and your heart.
The perfect combination of mind
and heart will help you get new ideas,
as well as avoid unfortunate mistakes.
Society always appreciates
those who know how to put aside all trivial worries
to lead a useful life.
But to get that honor,
you must first live responsibly with yourself.
Instead of thinking about past failures,
choose for yourself a more positive attitude,
by aiming for the best.
Famous editorial writer Arthur Brisbane once said:
“Regrets about what happened can become motivation
for you to live better in the future.
But you’re only really useful
when you don’t waste your time on idle regrets.”
Living in the present moment
and following your heart will help you live a productive life
and not have regrets for what you did or didn’t do.
Go beyond the trivial and live a productive life.
“Be nice to people.
It doesn’t cost anything.” – Grant Cardone
