Today, cancer has just taken the life of a visionary man, Steve Jobs. People from all walks of life, regardless of their skin color, religion or race paid tribute to him. This is not an easy feat, considering that Steve is not born with a silver spoon in his mouth. In fact, he came into this world as a reject. However, he didn’t let the circumstances of life determine his destiny, but instead led a life like no other and left the world with everyone loving him.
Following the news of the death of this legendary man, great leaders, such as President Barack Obama and Bill Gates to celebrities, such as George Lucas and Josh Groban to a teenager down the street just felt that they lost someone special.
Life is getting tougher, as many have said, especially after the Great Recession of 2008. Regardless whether you are in business or you are working for a company, the stress life of a modern society can take a toll on you and your family. Your priorities have shifted; you have made sacrifices, but you are not sure whether they are the right decisions; your bondings with your friends and love ones start to fade. You don’t want to wait until it is too late. In one moment, you take a pause. Questions after questions begin to pop up and come the ultimate question, “What is the meaning of life?”. You are lost! You don’t know the answer. You feel that you are in a rat race. You don’t know the purpose of your life anymore!
Well, you are not alone. Don’t feel discouraged yet. Instead, I would like to congratulate you, because you are about to discover the secrets of your life. You are born to be a special person. You need to be grateful of who you are. If you need some motivation, please watch the video below:
How does it feel? Do you feel much better? Welcome to a new beginning. Don’t give up yet. Give yourself a second chance. As long as you are still breathing, another opportunity awaits you to live the life that you want. Start by taking a long vacation, jot down the things that you love to do and share it with your friends. Don’t forget to make rooms for mistakes and take baby steps. Listen your heart. Your inner soul will guide you to find what you are really looking for.
Good luck, and please keep moving forward…

Recently, I came across the question “What are you passionate about?”. And it immediately sends a chill down my spine as it brings me back to my favorite quotation during my adolescent years.
