Why am I doing this?

I will be writing a few lines which I hope will inspire those who read it to aspire to be a better version of themselves.

We usually engage in activities or actions in our lives every passing day. More of than not these acts or activities become more like automated or robotic exercises. Sometimes we lose sight of the WHY behind our actions which is quite unfortunate as the intention we have for engaging in an action is a critical component in determining whether such action will be fruiful or futile. It could also determine if we get self satisfaction or simply emptiness.

Imagine a guy who gives a helping hand to someone in need without the recipient of the aid knowing his identity and another guy taking a selfie while giving a homeless guy 1 cent. Their intentions can never obviously be the same so also is the impact of such actions on their hearts. Actions devoid of good intentions are nothing more than wasted acts that are of no benefit to the one that engages in them. Worse still are actions based on bad intentions. Surely only evil or loss will be the outcome for such acts.

The intention for a life goal may well be the motivation that is needed to achieve that goal when challenges come up in the path to the goal. If the intention is noble surely the individual will be able to stay the course and ultimately achieve the goal.

In the end the results for our actions are a function of the intention behind them. So dear friends don't just act impulsively always be intentional and ask yourself the WHY for an action you're about to undertake.
