What is the "hook" for your life [see photo]. There are many to choose from: career, family, wealth, power, relationships, etc. I know, I know that is a somewhat brutal view of what it is that supports your version of a life.
However. Please note that this approach to life is not gender dependent. It is not about the "meaning" of life. It is not about adhering to a particular ideology. It is not about adapting to the rule of the mob. And it is not about living inside the fog of "group think".
Those who choose a career as the "hook" for a good life will work, and work, and work. Is this you? If this is you I trust that you have made the right choice for who you are and who you can be. This is not a life that can be lived half-heartedly it must be pursued with intent, resilience, focus, and energy. Clearly this "hook" is not a good choice for everyone.
Those who choose family as the "hook" for a good life will sacrifice, and sacrifice, and sacrifice. It this you? If this is you I trust that you have made the right choice for who you are and who you can be. This is not a life that can be lived half-heartedly it must be pursued with intent, resilience, focus, and energy. Clearly this "hook" is not a good choice for everyone.
I will leave all the other "hooks" swinging in the breeze with the full expectation that you will carefully choose the one that best fits your needs. But. Once you choose you must be rusted-on to that "hook". Most of you, just like me, will try to swing from "hook" to "hook" in search of the "meaning of life" or whatever.
In summary, the "hook" you choose is what brings a clear-and-present purpose to your life.
Richard.
