Even people who want\u00a0to go to heaven don&#8217;t want to die to get there.\u00a0And yet death is the destination we all share.\u00a0No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it\u00a0should be, because Death is very likely the\u00a0single best invention of Life.<\/p>\n<p>It is Life&#8217;s change agent. It clears out the\u00a0old to make way for the new. Right now the\u00a0new is you, but someday not too long from now,\u00a0you will gradually become the old and be cleared\u00a0away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.<\/p>\n<p>Your time is limited, so don&#8217;t waste it living\u00a0someone else&#8217;s life. Don&#8217;t be trapped by dogma &#8212;\u00a0which is living with the results of other people&#8217;s\u00a0thinking.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t let the noise of others&#8217; opinions drown out\u00a0your own inner voice. And most important, have the\u00a0courage to follow your heart and intuition. They\u00a0somehow already know what you truly want to become.\u00a0Everything else is secondary.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8230; &#8220;If today were the last day of my life, <\/strong><strong>would I want to do what I am about to do today?&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>&#8211; Steve Jobs, 1955-2011<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>To your success,<\/p>\n<p>Ronnie Nijmeh<br \/>\nPLR.me<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last night, I got an alert on my iPad and iPhone\u00a0about the passing of Steve Jobs.
