As much as we think we are free individuals journeying through life, many of us are slaves to others, and this is the reason why we fail to achieve much of what we really desire.
Most of our activities and the important things which define our existence are placed in the hands of others.
Are you one of the many people living their lives on unfavourable terms of others? How will you even know if you are one of these people? If you do any of the below things, then you are surely not living life on your own terms.
Do you consider your life as yours and take full responsible for whatever it brings? If you do not take your destiny into your hands and take charge of your life, then you are not living on your own terms.
Are you one of the many people who sit around hoping for the person who will give them the opportunity they so much need to make a break in their lives?
Instead of waiting, why not create opportunities for yourself? Waiting on someone for opportunities such as employment, happiness, comfort and success indicate that, you are living your life on someone’s terms.
Do you extensively rely on people for encouragement, advice and directions instead of giving yourself encouragement when you need it? If you do any of the former, then you are not living life on your terms.
Apart from the fact that you will not be able to achieve much of what you really desire when you live on someone’s terms, the terms will definitely not also be favourable to you.
All you will continue to do in life is to live the dreams of others, as if you do not have your own dreams. After all, we all sleep at night right?
To start living life on your terms, take control of your life by accepting full responsibility for every occurrence. Stop blaming others for your situation.
Get busy and chase your own dreams. And sooner than later, you will experience the outstanding happiness in living life on your own terms.
