We Are Not Alone We Are Social Creatures
The Purpose of Why Humans Should Live
The purpose of life is what a person plans to live for today, tomorrow, next month, next year, even the next few years. The purpose of people's lives will be different from each other. The purpose of my life will definitely be different from the purpose of life that my fellow readers have. Understanding the purpose of life according to experts is the process of determining the identity of a person. In other words, we can say that someone who has a purpose in life is those who have a strong self-identity in living daily life.
In modern society as it is today, individuals who have known the purpose of life are clearly considered to have met the main criteria in the direction of life happiness. In fact, not everyone who has known the purpose of his life can achieve true happiness easily. In fact, not a few people end up suppressing their lives just because they are too ambitious with the goals of life they have.
Many people are flocking to read the purpose of life quotes or books that can direct them to their respective life goals that they may have wanted all along. They're trying to find out about what humans live for? What is the purpose of human life? What is the purpose of our life? Maybe we can take an example. One example of my own life goals is that I want to become a Director of the Company in the next five years.
That's good, live with purposeful purpose. Although people who have a purpose in life will not necessarily feel happiness (in fact, most feel depressed). However, at least the purpose of life will make our lives “more burned” with passion. We need to remember that “The purpose of life is not a tool to make us happy. However, the purpose of life is something that is useful, honorable, compassionate, and makes a difference whether we just live or have lived life as well as possible”.
3 Steps to Finding Your Life Purpose Right
If indeed the purpose of life can train us to live life as well as possible, then how can we find the purpose of life appropriately? According to the lifehack dot org website, there are 3 steps that we can apply to find a purpose in life, namely as follows.
Focus on Certain Actions that Can Make Us Happy.
According to an expert named Patrick Ness, we do not write our lives with words, but we will carve them with actions that we think are important to do. By doing the actions that we think are important, we are walking towards the life goals we expect. The purpose of life does not guarantee happiness for us, but by applying what is important, we will feel happier and satisfied with our own lives.
Ask These 3 Main Questions to Determine Your Life's Purpose.
Before looking for the right life purpose, there are some questions that are very powerful and can help us to find the right life purpose, which is as follows:- What legacy (legacy) do I want to leave for the people around me, when I no longer exist in this world?
– What will others say about me when I am no longer in this world?
– What difference should I make from the lives of others?
Answer the 3 questions above very honestly and openly to ourselves. By answering some of the questions above, we can determine the purpose of our lives appropriately and as well as possible. After that, do not forget to apply the actions that we must immediately do consistently, so that the purpose of life we have is not just a life plan.
Staying Away from Social Media for a While.
The first step we recommend to fellow readers is to disconnect for a while with social media. Why so? Overly connected with social media allows us to be constantly exposed to the lives of others. For example, when we open Instagram, what we see in Instastory is looking at our coworkers who are being promoted to new positions by their bosses, seeing our friend who has just opened his business branch elsewhere, and so on.We are busy looking at life and reading the purpose of others' lives, while the purpose of living ourselves? We often ignore it. On social media, we will only see the amazing and fun lives of others. In fact, not necessarily the life they have is as beautiful as the things they display on social media. No one is spared from the problems of life, everyone whoever he is will definitely have problems of life, both small and big problems. So, the thing we need to do to focus on our own lives and achieve the right life goals is to stay away from or reduce our intensity with social media.
There are several ways that we can apply so that we can turn our lives into something very meaningful. Here are some things we can do from now on:
– Creating something
Start to create something that we will proudly call our life. To apply this, we can write, draw, paint, play music, or create other works that make us proud.
Some people can create something by setting up a business, creating creative and innovative marketing promotions, forming social groups to help many people, and so on.
– Connect with people around
Our lives will be very meaningful, when we live with loved ones we love with all our heart. Try to enjoy and feel how happiness pervades our hearts by seeing their smiles and laughter. Because of the presence of loved ones, our lives will become very meaningful and beautiful.
– Help others in need
We will feel happier with our lives, when we feel that our presence in the world really benefits others. From now on, extend whatever help we have to those who need our help.
– Realize that this life only lasts once
By realizing how valuable life is, we will be more careful in making choices, making decisions, and really enjoying life as best we can.
– Keep growing
To make our lives more meaningful, from now on we need to learn new things, increase knowledge (insight) and hone all the skills we have before.
