Lifestyling

Are you living a life or pursuing a lifestyle?

More and more I see people who are driving themselves (and
those around them) crazy, not to mention to the edges of
exhaustion and financial insolvency, all for the sake of
trying to live a lifestyle.

Think about it... What's the first thing we see about other
people?

Their lifestyle!

We see the clothes they wear, the jobs they have, the houses
they live in. We see all of the outward signs of their
LIFESTYLE.

But what is it that we aren't seeing? What else is there?

Quite a lot, actually.

Just like an iceberg, most of the BIG stuff in our lives is
hidden from view. Similarly, LIFESTYLE is just the tip of the
iceberg to understanding WHO a person really is and WHAT
they truly value.

Unfortunately, too many people these days get so busy
working towards a lifestyle that they've decided they want
that they forget to work as hard, if not harder, on the
person inside... so that when they finally get the lifestyle
they strived for, they're not happy with who they are.

Do you really want to have a great lifestyle but a lousy
life?

What does your lifestyle matter to you, anyway?

Take some time today to figure out if you're living life or
pursuing a lifestyle... Know for certain whether you are
simply staying busy, collecting a whole bunch of stuff, or
truly fulfilling your values.

After all, it's your life.
