Today’s musings are questions I am pondering (not for the first time). Over time, I hope to briefly answer each one, not necessarily in order, but in a way that makes sense and brings continuity to my search and the outcome of that search to create a more meaningful life.
- How have I impacted the lives of the people with whom I come in contact – do I help or hurt them? Do I encourage or discourage them? Have I treated them how I want to be treated and how I want my loved ones treated?
- How do I nurture peace, opportunities for others, and inspiration among family and coworkers at home, work, and the larger community?
- What specific things do I do to improve the quality of life for others, especially those outside my inner circle?
- What motivates me?
- In what ways have I evolved?
- What are my core values? Upon what or which principle(s) are those values derived? Have they changed over time? If so, why and in what ways?
- Aside from material gain and personal growth, what do I want from life? What difference do these things make? Why does it matter?
- Do I inspire optimism? If so, about what?
- Do I look for and recognize the good in and value of others?
- What are the 10 most significant influences in my life?
