“I’m not in this world to live up to your expectations, and you’re not in this world to live up to mine.”
-Bruce Lee
Often times we don’t live our lives in the way that we should. We do things for the wrong intentions. As Bruce Lee points out in today’s quote, the goal of life is not to live up to someone else’s expectations nor should we expect The someone to live up to ours. All that matters is that we live up to the expectations that we place on ourselves.
What we do and how we live our lives is how we see fit. Nothing else should affect this. Not anyone’s opinion. Nothing. Our purpose, our mission and are reason for living is for us to determine. When we realize we are the ones that are in the driver’s seat and we decide things, we reach the pinnacle of truly being self aware.
What does this quote mean to you and how can you apply today’s message towards improving your self awareness?
