LIVE YOUR LIFE TO THE FULLEST AS IF IT'S YOUR LAST❣

Death is inevitable so better do what makes your mind and soul happy!

These are the 4 stages of life.

STAGE 1: Imitation

Right after we were born, we are helpless. We are highly dependent with our parents whenever we'd like to eat, to sleep or to do anything.

We tend to imitate what the others are doing. The way they act and react on things. Until chilhood, we have this what we call "mimicry" because we often search for someone's approval and validation before doing the action.

STAGE 2: Getting to know ourselves

If the first stage is all about learning to fit with other people, in this stage we slowly realize our differences. We are accepting the fact that we are all unique, the way we think and interact with the other so we begin making decisions for ourselves.

This stage is more on trial-and-error. We want to explore new things and if we fail, we try again. It's like we are having experiments with our life to test if it suits us. Maybe some may go well, but there are some that don't but the goal is focus on the good side, leave the bad experiences behind and move forward.

STAGE 3: Responsibilty

When we reach the age of maybe 30+ we maximize our potential in life. We tend to ask ourselves "When I'm gone, what will I leave behind?", "Will they remember me?".

This is the stage where you want to prove something for yourself. You take risks for everything you do and you are responsible with any consequences you've made.

STAGE 4: Inheritance

This is the stage where you spent your life investing with the important things. You did your best when you were young, now it's time to have time for yourself. The age no longer allows you to pursue your purpose further.

This is also the stage where you teach the children the right thing to do while they were young. You give them remembrance of you whenever you leave. This might be the saddest part of all. We leave our love ones and not seeing our children having grandkids. But the most important thing is, you did well when you were young.
