Please allow me to ask you a question. If you had unlimited supply of money or if you had complete financial freedom what would your purpose in life be? You see, by the time you finish watching this video, more than 1200 people would have died in the world. In fact 178 thousand people die every day. It’s not unfortunate that a staggering 65 million people die every year but what is unfortunate? It is the fact that a vast majority of those die living an ordinary life or without ever finding their purpose in life.
Fortunately, we have numerous examples of ordinary people doing extraordinary things, people who have found their purpose in life. This is a 3000 feet wall in Yosemite National Park in California. I went there to honor Alex Honnold and tried climbing only few feet. But We admire people like Alex who climbed this this wall without using any ropes for safety. This was equivalent to an athletic gold medal performance, and if he had made a single mistake, he would have died.
Have you ever tried solving a Rubik’s cube? We admire ordinary people like Shivam Bansal who made a world record when he solved 48 out of 48 Rubik’s Cubes in less than one hour. But what was really amazing was the fact that he did it Blindfolded, yes, blindfolded.
You may have seen videos of friends and family members who may have done sky-diving or bungee jumping. I did it once myself, but we admire ordinary people like Felix Baumgartner who in 2021, jumped with a parachute from the edge of space and proved for the first time, that a human could break the speed of sound in freefall.
We admire ordinary people like Philippe Petit, a young Frenchman, who in 1974 stepped out on a wire, illegally rigged between the New York World Trade Center’s twin towers. He was over 1300 feet in the air. After walking, dancing, lying down and kneeling to the crowd for nearly 45 minutes on the wire, he was arrested, taken for psychological evaluation, and brought to jail before he was finally released. He overcame seemingly insurmountable challenges to achieve the artistic crime of the century.
Kudos to these ordinary people doing extraordinary things. We believe that the Human potential is unlimited. But most peoples are too timid to try or they get scared of defeat. We invite you to take inspiration from former president Theodore Roosevelt who in 1910 said-
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” – Roosevelt
Yogananda said, “If life has given you everything you wanted — wealth, power, friends — after a while you would again become dissatisfied and need something more. But there is one thing that can never become stale to you — joy itself. Though the essence of happiness is changeless, Happiness that is delightfully varied is the inner experience you are seeking.”
We invite you to find happiness in serving others to search for the ultimate joy you seek. Take inspiration from ordinary people like Jordan Thomas, who in 2005 lost both his legs below the knee in a boating accident. While in the hospital, he realized how many other kids there were like him, yet so many of them did not have access to the prostheses they needed to live active, healthy lives. Although just 16 years old at the time, Jordan found his purpose in life and committed to help all kids in need and the Jordan Thomas Foundation was born.
We admire people like my friend Sravani who found that her purpose was to find God in this life. So, she said goodbye to her parents, her relatives, her 6-figure paying software engineering job to lead a monastic & spiritual life so she could find God in this life.
We invite you to arise, awake and stop not till you find your goal, your purpose in life. And if it is the financial worries that are keeping you from doing extraordinary things or are holding you back, we are here to help. We are 3D Holistic Wealth. We believe that everyone should find their purpose in life in order to achieve their fullest potential and should be able to pursue that purpose without worrying about their financial future.
