Knowing what to do

By Philip Dodson

Often we are unsure of what to do.

We umm and argh about what might be the solution.

The thing is there is not one answer, so perhaps it is not worth the worry about what choice to make. Anyone might work.

Perhaps it is better to just do something without too much thought, then get even better next time if it doesn’t bring the outcome we’d hope for.

Imagine if we took a lifetime of energy that we can end up wasting on indecision and applied it to action instead. What could we all achieve?

Build value

‘Where’s the money in that?’ is the cry of people who need a salary and are willing to exchange their soul for money to buy trinkets.

Spend your life building value, which as it builds will provide you with all the resources you need to live a meaningful and abundant life.

Value takes longer to build but is so much more rewarding, longer-lasting and meaningful to our life.

It’s because you build long-lasting value by doing something you care about, something that matters and therefore you will create your best work. It will do the same to the people who love what you do and that’s why value is more valuable than a salary or making money.
