Set Your Sights On What's Important

Set Your Sights On What's Important

By: Shawn Miller

Ask yourself: what's important to you? It could seem like a rhetorical question, however in order to set your sights on what's important. First, you will have to reach out to find what truly brings value to your life. Furthermore, setting your sights on what's importance will open you up like a dam and bring you to new insights. In other words, to set your sights on where you want to go, you must be able to overlook where you want to go. Line up the cross hairs, and aim for that target that's light years away. All that seems too distant may be closer than you think, so keep your eyes fixated on the prize. Don't be blinded by the inconveniences that blind you from seeing the clearer image. Since all that is seen through lens in our visual field becomes a baseline for we view the world, and what we attach importance to. Therefore, it's vital to proportionate everything that blocks, and casts dark shadows and pluck them out like flower petals. If you let the blockage of sunlight damper your pathway, you'll be in ridicule laboring along to find what's important. Truly, in life what you choose to deem as important is what will truly bring you towards a river flow of happiness. Value your every move, and align it in sight with what you value as important. So move along accordingly with the demeanor, tenacity, and grit with the belief that what you set your sights on is what your future depends on. Take on the strong waters, and rapids because it could unknowingly lead you to reinforce what you value as important. Treading the waters of the seven seas may be intimidating, and apprehensive, but it will allow you to execute and zealous. When you think about what you label as important, take into consideration a bucket of water in a third world country. A kid living in poverty, and someone who lived in a poor family growing up would be able to grasp this concept. The same goes for what we label as important in our lives. Similarly, society should be more keen on implementing this, and place more value on enjoying everything to the last drop. 

Most individuals would wince over just having a single bucket of water, but a kid living in poverty would appreciate the small things. In all honesty, this would be the first stepping stone to realizing what's important: just appreciating the small things, rather than despising what we don't have. If everyone were to understand this universal truth, the world would be a much more harmonizing, and the world would have more selfless and humble people. Another analogy for this would be that since knowing that water is a universal solvent, which means it can dissolve so many materials. This gives us the idea that no matter what uncertainty arises, don't let what's important dissolve from your system. The world is truly yours, and it's your oyster to live out in a compelling way. Time is an essence, so live every moment value every moment in the presence. Don't be afraid to unwrap your presents, because life can bless you in an abundance of ways, if you place value on what's important. Our importance doesn't devalue by one's inability to see it clearly. The truth is: we all have something to give back to the world, and each one of our importance's is a building block for creating the world as a collective. So instead of being mortified by what we don't have, let's appreciate all that we possess. To see value in the process, and advocate falling in love with the progress! Let's change the world, where we don't handcuff ourselves in chains, but rather move towards a movement of change!!
