If Today Were The Last Day Of My Life
“If you live
each day as it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right” ―Steve
Jobs
Our lifespan
is fixed. Nobody knows when will be the last day and when will be the last
moment of our life. If today were the last day of your life, what would you do?
What would you do differently?
You would unlock
your potential when you realize that today were the last day of your life. You
respect the time and the people around you. You would value them. You would do
what is important to you. You would express your gratitude. You would love the
people around you. You would love your neighbors. You would not settle for
less. You would do your best. You would add value to others and make a
difference in their lives. You would live each moment of your day.
If today
were the last day of my life, I would do as follows. I spend my time with my
wife for her love and support. I thank students for their love and support. I
thank God for blessing me with a life full of challenges. I led many lives in
one life. I was born in a village and grew up in a toxic environment. I was a
soldier in the Indian Air Force. I was an entrepreneur. I was an educator and
professor. I am an author and speaker. Therefore, I thank God for granting me
many lives in one life.
I phone my
best friends for their support. I thank my toxic parents and siblings for the
lessons they taught me. I thank my rogue relatives for their betrayal. I post
an interesting article on my blog, upload an inspiring video, thank my friends,
fans, and followers and say goodbye to them. Life is great.
Takeaway: Treat each
moment as the last moment in your life. Treat every day as the last day to
unlock your hidden potential and make a difference in the lives of others.
“Live every
day as the last day of your life.” ―Professor M.S. Rao

To Aspire Is Human; To Be Blessed Is Divine
“You must
work your ass off to achieve success in your life. If success comes instantly,
it goes away instantly. Achieve success in such a way that you sustain and grow
steadily to add value to others. The world needs that special gift you only
have.” ―Professor M.S. Rao
I have a
friend who is in the film industry. He is handsome with an amazing screen
presence. He is struggling in the industry for the last 15 years to establish
himself. Adding fuel to the fire, coronavirus has thrown his career out of
gear. He is in a deep financial mess. He is caught between his aspirations and
challenges. I advised him to face challenges head-on and explore other
opportunities in the film industry with the changing times and technologies. I
advised him about OTT platforms, web series, and crowdfunding.
When you
look at most achievers, their main aim is not wealth but to earn name and fame.
Whether they are entrepreneurs, leaders, generals, or politicians, they want to
stand out from others for their contributions and achievements. So let us
understand and appreciate the importance of ambition. Ambition must help people
serve others and add value. It must make a difference in the lives of others.
Ambition is
a state of mind and a way of life. It is a disciplined approach and an eager
desire for achievement. It is the reflection of the unconscious human. It is
the hallmark of the human spirit. It took ordinary individuals to extraordinary
heights. People worked hard to prove themselves. They stretched beyond their
limits to leave their marks and get noticed.
Many people
go to their graveyard with their potential lying untapped. Don't go in that
way. Treat challenges as opportunities, not threats. Unlock your potential to
add value to others and make it big in your life. Leave your legacy to your
next generations.
Challenges
are an important part of our life. They lead to growth. They force to think in
multiple ways to come out of the challenges. They unlock hidden potential. So,
look at the door that is opened, not the door that is closed.
Takeaway: Ambition is
an integral part of your life. Take charge of your life, unlock your potential
to add value to others, and make a difference in the world.
“To aspire
is human; to be blessed is divine.” ―Professor M.S. Rao
