      Very well said, it's very important to " work on yourself before others" as Jim Rohn says.

        I agree.....start improving with oneself before looking out for others.

    Being free makes me come alive... so I do the best I can to be free... to balance freedom with responsibilities...

    So I do what I can to increase my own personal freedom, autonomy, and personal responsibility for myself, my actions, and my situation.

    This is a really essential rule for living. Many people are just puppets who act as their destiny asks them to.

    Excellent quote, there are many things which may makes us come alive but it's not easy to figure out exactly what? this constant confusion brings chaos and we find our lives in disarray. I guess, not all people are doing that which makes them come alive and if I'm one among then definitely it's a high time for me to dig it.

    What makes you come alive? Are you doing it?
    My family makes me come alive and what God has done for me! If you are not a Christian you would not know what I am saying here but I went down a road of drugs, alcohol, parties, total destruction for years and in January 2005 I got saved and gave my life to Jesus Christ! From that day forward my life has continued to get better and better. The drugs, alcohol, parties are gone and I remember what I did the night before. He has given me a great family and a great job and opportunity and that deserves all I can give!
