Primary Greatness : How to Live a Good and Impactful Life
Adopted from Stephen R. Covey Primary Greatness
Imagine you are a passenger at Titanic, you were glad you got invited to join the most prestigious cruise at that time and you were really happy and then tragedy happens. The Titanic is sinking.
It’s such a sad tragedy that the Titanic were sinking. What’s worse is, not knowing the titanic were sinking while the actual ship is sinking. Believe it or not, we often not knowing that our life is sinking and act everything is fine and doesn’t need to be fixed.
We often have our priorities backward, for example, waking up at noon and just laying on bed all day. While day by day, our condition is deteriorating. As time goes on, we don’t have any stamina and just want to sleep all day. Another example is, we play games all night long while we know we have something to do.
The result ? Missed goals, failed careers, broken families, bad health, and many more. The things that matter the most should not be at mercy of things that matter least.
How many of us tend to put last things first ?
Do we treat strangers better than we treat our own family ? Do we put our health and career goals at the mercy of momentarily happiness ?
“The things that matter the most should not be at mercy of things that matter least.”
