Make Every Moment Matter
Everyone was put on this earth for a reason. What’s yours?
Find your purpose and pursue your passion with gusto.
Believe in the impossible because everything seems impossible until you prove that it can be done.
Reach for the stars and be proud of your achievements, but also take pride in the way that you achieve them.
Make good choices because your life will grow to be the sum of those decisions.
Do what’s right, not out of fear of getting caught, but because integrity matters. You have to live with yourself for the rest of your life.
Make a difference in people’s lives, not because you expect something in return, but because witnessing their happiness is, by itself, a worthy reward.
Find your happiness, not by means of seeking more, but by appreciating what you already have.
Collect memories because things may offer a moment’s pleasure, but you’ll cherish your memories forever and ever.
Make every moment matter.

Wow. You’ve distilled the wisdom of the ages into a concise easy to read by list! While each point is important, my favorite is:
“Make good choices because your life will grow to be the sum of those decisions.”
If we could all just grasp the far reaching implications and unwavering truth of this one concept, our civilization would evolve overnight! Even the simplest decisions can change the course of our lives, or relationships, or careers etc. I feel the reason we don’t reverence the power of choice is that we keep ourselves too busy to reflect on the outcomes and link them to the choices that led to them.
Thanks for sharing Frank. 191 blog posts! That’s an awesome accomplishment! May I suggest that you offer this one as a poster for everyone’s wall. 🙂

Hi Anita
One of the things I’ve learned by blogging is that no one post resonates with everyone. So, I try to mix the posts up to make sure they’re relevant to a broad audience. It just so happens that this one is very meaningful to me. In fact I’m hanging it up on my wall. It sums up many of the things that are important to me.
“Make good choices” is a common phrase that we use in our household. That’s because, good or bad, your life will grow to be the sum of those decisions.
My hope that that everyone thinks about these points and takes them to heart.
Have an awesome day!
Best,
Frank
