Find your vocation

Find your vocation
 

As a teenager, I heard from his father's words that I shall never forget:

- My son, the world rejoiced in the birth of your and you're crying at the same time. Lived a life so that the world wept when you filled with joy, going to leave him.

Because of the crazy speed of modern life we ​​no longer realize their true destiny. Today, one can easily land on the moon, but can not find the time to cross the street to meet a new neighbor.We can run a ballistic missile at the other end of the world, calculate its trajectory with remarkable accuracy, but can not find free time to reduce the natural children to the zoo.

To keep in touch with each other, people use e-mail, faxes and digital phones, but never before human beings were more divided. We lost the humane principles, and have lost their purpose in life. We stopped paying attention to authentic human values.

Now, once you started reading this book, let me ask: who cry when you die? How many people touched by the fact that you had the honor to walk the Earth? How will it affect your life on the fate of future generations? What legacy will get your offspring, when the last breath of life you go?

Based on personal experience, I came to this conclusion: if you do not take over your life, then she would get down to you. Days of flow seamlessly into weeks and weeks - in the months and months - years. Life goes quickly to the inevitable denouement, and very soon we are painfully in his heart begin to realize that life is already half prozhita.Kogda George Bernard Shaw was on his deathbed, he asked: - What would you like to be if you were to re-live their life? A little thought, he said with a sigh of disappointment: I would like to be a man who could be, but he failed.

I wrote this book to you is never wrong.

Constantly traveling to cities in North America with workshops, I have devoted much time to participate in numerous conferences to bring people to their own understanding of the fundamental laws of life. I'd like to share with them a personal understanding of leadership - both in its everyday manifestations, and in business.Despite the fact that the people I have ever met, represent different strata of society were concerned about the same questions: "How to find the meaning of life? How much work can make my life better? How to live well in time to enjoy life's journey, yet it is too late? "In response to these questions, I'd say the same thing: Look for his vocation.

I have no doubt that any of us has a special gift that temporarily dormant until it is a chance to open up fully. Everyone lives in order to fulfill its unique challenge - to achieve a noble goal, which will enable it to achieve their highest human potential and at the same time enriching the lives of others. Find your calling does not mean you should abandon the job to be done at this time. You just have to give yourself more to the business and concentrate on what you do best.

Rather live in the hope that your fate will change for the better only through participation in it of other people. As Mahatma Gandhi said: "Be yourself the change that you most want to see in my life."

And as soon as this happens, your life will change.
