DBMS course :You’ve Got to Find What You Love

       No one wants todie. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there. Andyet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And thatis as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention ofLife. It is Life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new.Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will graduallybecome the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.

 

     Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most importanttool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Becausealmost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear ofembarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death,leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die isthe best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose.You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.

    Your time islimited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped bydogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't letthe noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And mostimportant, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehowalready know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.
