The Point of Life
Summary
- The point of life isn't to arrive at death perfectly preserved; it's about enduring life's challenges and being proud of overcoming them.
- The goal is to reach the end of life feeling accomplished, despite being 'beaten up' by life's difficulties.
- Living without being controlled by fear is crucial; strive to conquer fears rather than letting them dictate your life.

How To Take Action
I would suggest embracing challenges as part of your growth strategy. Remember, it's not about staying untouched by hardship, but about being proud of how you handle and overcome them. To do this, make a list of the challenges you’re facing and tackle them one by one, no matter how small they are. Celebrating each victory will build your confidence and resilience.
To reach the end of life feeling accomplished, you should set meaningful goals for yourself. Start small, with low-cost investments, like reading a book related to your field, or networking with peers over social media. These steps don't take much money or time but can lead to valuable insights and connections.
Dealing with fear is vital for personal growth. Write down your fears that pertain to your business or personal journey. Next to each, write down a simple action you can take to address that fear. It could be as simple as practicing a presentation to overcome fear of public speaking, or saving a small portion of earnings to alleviate financial anxiety. Aim to tackle these actions regularly. The goal isn't to eliminate fear altogether, but to prevent it from controlling your decisions.
Finally, the journey is personal, so keep track of your feelings and thoughts as you progress. A nightly journal entry reflecting on the day's challenges and how you managed them can be a low-time commitment way to ensure you're growing and not being ruled by fear.
