Finding Your True Self – Revisited

by Stephen Mills June 15, 2010

There is an ultimate aloneness to human existence. You cannot get into someone else’s head and they cannot get into your yours. No matter how close you are to someone, it is an illusion to think they truly understand you or you truly understand them. At some level you can share your experiences, but ultimately you are alone with your own experiences and you will get along better in life if you accept that and figure out what it means to you.

Making a Difference

by Stephen Mills September 3, 2009

As long as there is somebody who needs something and you are doing something about it, you are making a difference. Your life thereby gains meaning and purpose. You don’t need to change the world and you don’t need to feed your ego like crusaders and celebrities. You can make more of a difference by engaging in small little acts of kindness towards your fellow human beings.

The Dash

On your tombstone there will be two dates. On mine I hope it will be something like this 1961 – 2061. It might look like this 1961 – 2009. The first date and the last date are two things you have no control over and really don’t matter. All that really matters is the dash in the middle.

Finding Your True Self

by Stephen Mills July 10, 2009
Thumbnail image for Finding Your True Self

The only way to be truly free is to discover that unique person that is you. Many of you don’t know who that is because you’ve grown up and lived in the presence of pressures to behave according to the norms of others; your parents, your friends, your culture, and your partner. These have likely exerted a great influence on what you think are your values and tastes. This means that who you think you are and what you think you like and need, may just be a result of what you’ve absorbed from others. It doesn’t represent the real and unique you. Taking on the values of others leads to a lot of frustration and unhappiness.

Vision, Purpose, Goals

by Stephen Mills March 21, 2009

Bob Proctor has written a very nice 9 page article called Vision, Purpose, Goals.  I think it is simply outstanding and I highly recommend you read and listen to it.  Listen on your commute.  He is very inspirational.  I personally like the audio because I love Bob’s infectious voice.

Find Your True Purpose

by Stephen Mills February 15, 2009

What a different story people would have to tell if they would adopt a definite purpose and stand by that purpose until it had time to become an all-consuming purpose.  (emphasis mine)

Find Happiness Outside the Rat Race – Part 3

by Stephen Mills February 5, 2009

Whatever you give up in core needs, makes you less of who you really are and could be. Your children will remember a mother who was not filled with the joy of life, with the calm and loving manner, and with the fulfilled life that should should have been. You are giving your children something less and not something more by sacrificing a core need.

You have little reason to escape the rat race unless your escape is a gateway leading to your long-term and genuine happiness. Finding happiness is not difficult and you only need to look within yourself to discover the key to unlocking it. Passion is a central key to success and satisfaction at nearly everything you do. Whatever path you choose to follow, you simply must follow one that you are passionate about and this will enable you to achieve all the success and happiness you deserve. If you work at something you love, the money and success will follow automatically.
