Only 30 Days Left of Life

If you had 30 days left to live, would you continue living the way you are right now?

This is a quote that I heard that really got my gears turning. It's so powerful that I am going to write it one more time.

If you had 30 days left to live, would you continue living the way you are right now?

Maybe you are living the life of your dreams. If so, great for you! You can stop reading here. But...if you are not living your ideal life right now, continue reading.

It is very common to see people get stuck in the rut of life. To get stuck in their ordinary routines doing the same things over and over again, simply because that is the easiest thing to do.

These routines that people get stuck in....is this the ideal life that they want to live? What I've found is most of the time no.

This quote reminds us of the shortness of life and of one thing that is for certain, we will all die.

It may be today, next month, next year, or 80 years down the line. Ultimately, we do not have the choice about when we die or not. We can do our best to elongate the period that we are on this Earth for but there is no absolute certainty.

That being said, if you were given 30 more days to live....how would you live your life?

I can guarantee that most people reading this are not living their ideal life.

So with that, how do we live our ideal life?

Steps to Achieving Your Ideal Life

The first step in achieving anything is understanding why. Why do you want these things? Why do you want to live this kind of life?

By asking ourselves these questions we can better understand the true reasons why we want these things. Then, we can identify if these goals that we want are the best method to achieve our why behind what we do. Take time, really dig deep and seek to find the true why behind your desire for these things.

The next step is naming the goal. Identify the things that you want to get. This can be as simple as writing down what your ultimate goal is, what you want your life to look like in your perfect, ideal scene.

Once this has been named, develop an action plan of how it is possible to get there. Make a plan that outlines all the things that you need to do to get to this point. And if you have no idea the best road to get to where you want to go, go get someone to help you! Whether this is a mentor or a friend or a family member, get someone who can help you get to where you want to be. Today, accessing a mentor has been easier than ever before. It's as simple as going to Google and typing in "a mentor who can help me with _____." Don't overcomplicate things.

Lastly, take action towards this goal by using this plan. Now, remember, it is not always going to be sunshine and rainbows. There will be days where you get lazy. Where you will not want to work along this path. But remember, you are working towards the life of your dreams. So even if you may need to work harder than you ever have before, would it be worth it if you could really have that life of your dreams?

In today's world with the amazing resource of the internet, anything you want to do is at your fingertips. Know that if your desire is strong enough, you can make your dream life become a reality. One of my all-time favorite quotes is:

"Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve."

So remember, the life of your dreams is at your fingertips. It will take time and effort to get there, but would it be worth doing if you could live the life of your dreams?

So once again.

If you had 30 days left to live, would you continue living the way you are right now?

What will you decide to do?
