Silence
Silence is a great habit for life
- by Grim Hustle
What is a most important habit in life? Silence.
To succeed in life, we need to have direction. If one doesn’t know to which port one is sailing, no wind is favorable. How do we know the port for us to sail to in life? Somebody else can tell us the words, and the words have meaning in your ear but not in your soul. You want to know what is your mission for your life? The answer cannot come from somebody else. If the answer comes from somebody else, we might follow those words for a while, but eventually lose motivation. If the answer comes from your own soul, then you will have the motivation for a lifetime, maybe longer than that. That is why you need silence - so that your soul can speak to you about which port to sail to; which mission to fulfil in your life. It will take hours of pure silence, days, maybe weeks. But your soul will speak to you. Honor will come.
