Day 4: Live

Dec 4, 2016 | Life

Day 4 of my 2016 Motivational Advent Calendar: you woke up today, so you have an obligation to live your life to the full.

One word and one book a day until Christmas, filmed as an advent calendar. First published December 2016.

Live

"Don't ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive. Because what the world needs most is more people who have come alive" (Steven Kotler, The Rise of Superman)

Today I want to talk to you about your obligation to live.

It's a horrible thing to know, but there will be some people who didn't wake up today. You're one of the lucky ones who did. So we need to appreciate the fact that you are alive.

And if you're alive, you have an obligation to live your life to the full. To the maximum. To turn up the gratitude switch, to be happy, and to go out there and live a life on purpose, to really achieve what it is you want to achieve in your day today.

So what can you do today to really appreciate this life you're blessed to have?

The book: The Rise of Superman by Steven Kotler.
