Week 4 blog: How will I measure my life?

There are many  ways people measure the success of their lives. People can base the success of their lives, in the many things they have accomplished, whether it is what they achieved within their career, or what they have done to become a better person. Something that I liked that I watched this week, was how important it is to do something that you love. It is not important to seek for a job just because of how much it pays, but rather it is important to look at the satisfaction you will receive. When you choose to do something that you love to do, you will inherently be better at what you do. 

It is not important to measure yourself to others and what they accomplish. It is important to measure yourself against what you want to become. As you progress in life, it is important to constantly evaluate where you are at as a person, and what kind of a person you want to be in the future. As you constantly evaluate your position in relation to that, you are able to realize what you need to do to improve on the person you are. It is important to constantly recognize the progress that you make while trying to become a better person.

In measuring who we are as people, we are more able to see where we are lacking. When we look at what it is that we need to improve, and make diligent plans that will allow you to improve on it, you will be more effective in becoming the kind of person you would want to become. It is important to focus on small and simple goals that will slowly allow you to improve steadily to the person you want to become. As you measure who you are as a person, you are more able to see specific traits that you can look to improve on.
