Where does life start?
Also, if you are looking for new day and new life please ignore technology, never look it back to your history, it's already death,
It all starts with your will-power and self-discipline.
Without a strong will - you may have the best ideas in the world - but you won’t get anywhere if you don’t actually START to work on making them a reality.
Some people find that will internally, just focus on their drive to succeed, while others aren’t so lucky and need to find external sources to get inspired, ignite the power inside them and get the motivation to get shit done.
It’s the difference between intrinsic motivation - something that you do for its own sake, versus extrinsic motivation - something that you do for a reward.
There is a study published in The Journal of Physiology, which shows that genetics DO play a role in how much innate willpower a person has. But will-power alone is not enough - you may start working on that idea, and, like you said, go at it for a week or so - but then due to lack of self-discipline - you quit.
And self-discipline is entirely learned and developed, it does not matter who your parents were, it does not depend on your genetics and anything else - you have to decide to learn and develop self-discipline, and then apply it to your work ethic. Focus on DEVELOPING your self-discipline and work ethic - and you’ll go far.
Life starts when you are aware of yourself, but not obsessed with yourself.
We’ve all met those people whose eyes glaze over when you’re talking to them. You can see their mind checking out its own reflection and waiting for that phonetic pause, so they can continue blabbing about their own problems and achievements. These people are not alive, they are egomaniacal zombies who feed their simplistic needs with chatter about the anima. Life begins when you open your fucking ears to the world and listen for the whisper of knowledge and grow from the plight of mistakes. Only when you take a step back can you finally move forward. We view life as a linear timeline: you’re born; you grow; you die. However, life is not so simple. We all go through periods of unhappiness, when our lives feel like they aren’t moving at all and, if anything, going backwards and spiralling into the abyss.
Then there are periods of intense happiness, where we can’t imagine being anywhere else and everything falls into place. Most of the time, it’s not until we look back on these memories do we realise just how awesome that time was. That for that moment in the past, with those particular people, in that particular place, we gelled our consciousness together and made the world ours. We look backwards to feel happy in the present and also project our happiness into the future.
Everyday is a new day, everyday is your new life. When you wake up from your bed you start your new Life, so give yourself a little time to start the day be thankful to God, make a deep breath calm, focused and visualise a positive day, your happiness your freshness and your hopefulness. Because you have no more yesterday.
Also, if you are looking for new day and new life please ignore technology, never look it back to your history, it's already death. Your first priority is look on forward find out yourself, your new begin your happiness, hopefulness, freshness, and start the day with your big smile, then your life is totally begin new journey.
