Making Decisions Based on What Really Brings Your Soul Live

When it comes to making career decisions, don't base them on an external element. Make them based on what truly, truly brings your soul live. I became convinced that using your talents to serve others was the goal of life and i wanted to experience that. The monks made me realize that service and impact were the real currency of happiness, not wealth, fame or anything else. We would always say, plant trees under whose shade you do not plan to sit. When a seed planted, the planter may never see the tree grow, but some one will. So consistently choosing and planting seeds in your life, as opposed to weeds, grows a beautiful garden to live in.
