We Really Don't Have Much Time

We should all talk like they do in acceptance speeches: full of gratitude and realizing we don't have much time- @bradmontague

In an age where we have content overload you get to choose what you see. This is just an example of what comes across my feed on the daily. What impacts me the most is the fact that we don’t have much time and we don't realize that. We live this life in our thoughts and actions as if we have a lot of them to live, as if we have another life were we get to do it over and learn from this life’s lessons and mistakes. The fact is….we don’t. We are on this earth for a limited amount of time and we need to take advantage of our time here and make a positive impact to those around us. The sooner we realize that, the sooner we will get it in to our brains that we should treat each other better, help each other out, and love one another regardless of pour differences. So remember, “we should all talk like the do in acceptance speeches: full of gratitude and realizing we don’t have much time.”

Spreading Light

In our modern society I have noticed that seeking self pleasure and thinking only of “ourselves” has become so prevalent that its becoming a major problem. We see it in the selfie culture and the instant gratification culture fueled by social media and consumerism. We put our needs and desires above all others. What would happen if we took a radical shift and started serving others with our talents and abilities?

What if we honed and crafted our skill sets to make the lives of others better by serving them? What if we all did this as a society? The thought of being a servant to others is practically non-existent in our western society. I want to be a servant in this society that has so many “masters”. I want to enrich and give hope to whoever listens to 60 seconds...ish, I want to spread light in this world full of darkness…. will you join me?

I want to be a billionaire

I have finally realized my life goal, I want to be a billionaire. Before you get too judgemental let me explain. I want to be a billionaire in the definition of Jason Silva…“Someone who positively affects the lives of a billion people!”

I know that this life isn’t about things, money, cars, etc…. yes we need that stuff to function but we should not let that consume who we are, dictate our decisions, or define us. I say we change the narrative and focus on true happiness and passing that legacy onto future generations, let's be billionaires in the most purest and noblest sense of the term.
