Our only real capital: Life. The agenda of the geography we live in is so stormy that we never have the opportunity to look back at ourselves. We do not have to come face to face with death for the life we have lived so far to flash before our eyes like a movie strip.
A friend of mine recently told me; after an argument with his daughter, he took his bag and left for a few hours without any explanation. In fact, he didn’t have a goal when he left; He found himself a shabby place by the beach and spent 3-4 hours there. “I thought about my whole life up to that time…” he said; “…I went there with a rage, and the anger I carried with me at the beginning gave way to gratitude at the end of the day.” said.
In my opinion, we need to open it once in a while and stir the “life album” in our minds. Moreover, we should not expect a feeling of anger as above; We should meet with ourselves at a place and time where we will not be disturbed by planning this job, “How long have we not seen each other, how are you?” we should have a conversation with ourselves.
Our aim in these seriously planned and time-spent meetings should be to pause as we go through our days with constant feelings of anger and dissatisfaction, to identify what went well, who was “lucky to be there”, and if there was even a single moment we enjoyed so far, and to do it justice. In fact, we must be able to find moments of pleasure that were fit into that time, but that were fugitive-migrating but planned.
Of course, when I say moments of pleasure, I do not mean pleasures that can only be achieved at high costs… If you like to hear bird sounds, waking up early one morning and being able to hear that sound, if you feel recharged after walking in a quiet environment, being able to do this for at least half an hour, being able to meet your friends you haven’t seen for a long time. being able to attend a meeting, etc etc… We can think of such moments of pleasure as mini incomes we get from our lives, which is the only real capital we have in this world.
However, the greatest income that can be obtained from life capital is to appreciate this very precious gift given to us and not to waste it in a short time with anger, resentment, deep sadness, resentment or unreasonable fears. All of this can be very effortless and attractive to all of us from time to time, but the real big gain is to fight and overcome these feelings, even though it is difficult, and to enrich a life that is suitable for our unique and unique self with new experiences and gains.
If we want to make the most of our lives, our first job must be to discover ourselves, our essence, which has been pushed around in various ways into our adulthood. In which soil can we sprout, grow and develop, what do we need, what fruits can we offer to this world if we can grow in an environment suitable for ourselves?
We must first find the answers to these questions, and then we must risk whatever it takes to reach or stay in environments where we can realize ourselves as we are. After all, every moment of life, which is the capital given to us at birth, is precious, and we should do our best to make the most of it. Expecting constant external motivation or other source support for this is also an attempt to escape from the responsibility of making the best of our lives; We must not fall into these traps.
As a result, we see that the story of every successful person we hear about is full of self-belief and efforts to develop and enrich their potential at all costs. Wishing you a life where you make the most of it and give full credit to every moment…
