In a conversation, last night with a friend and I had to ask, “how can you not be aware of the direction your life is heading? Don’t you stop and think about your situation? Aren’t you aware that most of your choices, actions, and decisions haven’t improved your life?

He stared at me in anger until the pain of reality hit him, and these words of regret fell from his lips, “Gosh, I was so busy surviving, that I missed the real meaning of my life.”

How aware are you of the results of your choices, actions, and decisions?

How many of us keep on going, despite all our bad decisions? How often do you check on your investment? The investment that you made in yourself. How quick are you able to see that something is wrong with your life? Your life depends on YOUR choices, actions, and decisions. So do your investments, IRAs, stocks and bonds, your health too. Your life is your investment, the rest is the necessity you need to sustain and enjoy it.
