Life’s a Paradox


Hi guys,
This article is short, sweet and packs a punch.
It’s the type of article that will perhaps allow you to make your life that little bit more interesting.
The idea is so simple yet it is almost always over looked and is so profound that if we took the time to consider it seriously, well maybe not too seriously, it would make a change in our lives, for the better.
I’m talking about the paradox of life.
I truly believe that if each and every one of us did things differently, going against the grain, or thought the opposite way to how we are accustomed to think then we’d probably be very surprised with the results of what we discover.

Here’s what I mean:
If ever you feel like pulling back then you’d better push forward instead - face your fears head on.
If you want to get more out of life, then you have to give in the same respect - be charitable and gracious and experience the abundance come into your life.
If you want to succeed then double your failure rate - Yes! Fail, fail and fail again. Eventually you’ll get to where you were planning to get to.
If you are hungry, sing; if you are hurting, laugh!
If you feel like you’re losing that means you’re in the process of winning - remember a knock back is a one step back and two steps forward.
If you want to be rich, be incompetent - don’t work hard, work smart and employ pros to do the work for you.
If you want to be really rich, be lazy - learn from Richard Branson.
If you want to be appreciated - shut up! - there is a reason why you have two ears and one mouth.
Just remember that we are one big walking, talking, breathing paradoxes at all moments of our lives and as soon as we give it all up, we can surely have it all…
So remember this the next time your thoughts get the better of you, that life is merely an illusion and yes… life is a paradox.
Regards
PJ

    i agree paradoxes are what defines life and extract the meaning out of it!
    but what if life throws these paradoxes at u at the most unexpected times?
