Fulfillment is the dream of every man who embarks on any worthwhile ventures. Fulfillment is
a sense of satisfaction obtained after the accomplishment of certain tasks or
after transcending some horrible conditions. It is the craving of every man and
it is simply the only thing that can keep a man at peace. Most of the troubles
of the world today are extensions of the troubles within man himself. When a
man is at peace with himself, his environment will reflect same too.
It
may
interest you to know that without a sense of fulfillment, a man will
continue to
struggle all through his life, irrespective of his vast material
acquisitions. Fulfillment is more subjective than objective, because a
man may have the best
of things that the world offers cum the honour of nations, yet
unfulfilled.
In my
critical observation and study, I found out that eighty percent (80%) of civil
servants are unfulfilled, forty-eight percent (48%) of entrepreneurs are
unfulfilled, and sixty-five percent (65%) of the politicians are unfulfilled
while forty percent (40%) of the clergy are unfulfilled. This makes it
imperative to ask: Is it possible to live a fulfilled life? The answer is
emphatically YES! The next question in mind becomes, HOW?
From
personal perspective, there are just two ways to be fulfilled. They are:
1 1. Do what you love doing best
2 2. Quit what you don’t like and cleave
to what you like
3 3. Love what you are now doing
4 4. Live with those who are fulfilled
No man can
ever get fulfillment doing what he does not love. He sure will find such a task
burdensome and uninteresting. The secret of productivity is commitment, while
the secret of commitment is love. A man will never be committed to what he does
not cherish, this undoubtedly will tell negatively on the results and
proportionally on the quality of his life. The first definition of failure is
in the mind of the man who has failed, because he knows what he has acquire and
what has not been achieved. Many people make choices of their careers base on
how lucrative the profession appears, but regrettably they end up unfulfilled.
I discovered that most people who are not fulfilled missed it at the point of
career choice. Next time you want to make a decision, make sure you go for what
you will enjoy doing.
The proof
that you do not like a thing really is to quit it. The fear of the unknown is a
slave master; it keeps people in bondage by telling them that they cannot find
something else better. But unless you let go, you cannot cleave to the
opportunities on the other side. Until you take the risk to quit that job which
shatters your peace, you may never be able to discover the things that your
soul earnestly craves.
If you are
already doing something else, you can still end up feeling fulfilled by LOVING
WHAT YOU ARE NOW DOING. You can never give the best to a job you do not like.
Conversely, you can never get the best from the job you have not given the
best. It is a practicable principle: give the best in other to get the best. If
you cannot quit what you do not like, then start loving it. After sometimes,
you will feel better, do better and live a better life.
One other
powerful determinant of the level of fulfillment of a man is his environment and
his friends. Living with those who are fulfilled may give you the same feeling.
The right environment and the right friend combinations will have great
influence on how you feel and think. Therefore, you may learn to be fulfilled
by being around the fulfilled ones.
Finally,
it
is your sense of fulfillment that makes your life count. A fulfilled
life alone
can affect other lives positively. If your dream is to impact your
world, then
your personal fulfillment has a tremendous contribution to make towards
its actualization. No one can buy over fulfillment; each man must work
it out. Do
what you love, Love what you do, quit what you hate and cleave to what
you like
and having the right people around you, are the proven tools for a
lifelong fulfillment. watch out for my next post on MAKING LIFE WORTH
LIVING.
