Make The Most Out of Life: Here’s How

What does it mean to make the most out life?

It simply means doing all the things you want to do, and feeling good about life (and yourself).

How do you make the most out of life?

You need to know what you want to achieve, and then embrace the hard work. You’ll then feel good about the end result.

It must have happened to you. Maybe you felt too tired to go on a trip but you did it anyway and then loved it.

It mostly comes down to fighting laziness! 

Let me explain with an example.

For years, I’ve been wanting to create this “offbeat community” of free spirits. But it’s not easy. It takes time. And it takes work. But now that I‘ve started it, I feel good about it.

Here’s another example.

You wake up tired, lazy, and bored. You have two options. 

• You can sit around all day and continue feeling tired, lazy, and bored,

• You can put my shit together, go out there, and do whatever it is I want to.

If you choose the second option, you’ll feel happy about life — and happy.

When you do that on a daily basis, that’s how to make the most out of life.  

To make the most out of life, you first need to find out what it is you want to do. Because this can be different for every person.

For me, that’s traveling, seeing the world, exploring new feelings, tasting new food. If for you it’s the same, you should join me in this “offbeat journey”.

But if your definition of “making the most out of life” is different, your goals will change, but the process will be the same: setting your goals, striving to achieve them, and feeling good about results.

Tips to make the most out of life

• Follow your instinct 

When you’re not sure about what you should, don’t listen to others. Don’t do what others would do. Do what your instinct tells you. You won’t have regrets — because you made the choice.

• Make plans

Although this is not always the case, to achieve your goals and make the most out of life, you need to plan stuff.

Don’t waste too much time on it and don’t rely on plans (be flexible), but make sure you have some high-level plans!

• Be brave 

Whatever it is you want to do or whatever goal it is you want to achieve, sometimes it won’t be easy. Be brave. Bite the bullet.

• Embrace discomfort 

“Where there is no struggle, there is no strength.” – Oprah Winfrey

Being brave won’t be enough to take on difficult challenges and achieve big goals.

You need to seek discomfort and make it part of your life.  

• Do it now

Planning is important, yes. It’s important to have the right timing and characteristics. But nothing will ever be perfect. So, just do it!

Fewer words, more actions.

Create to Make The Most Out of Life

Thorough both direct and indirect experience, I’ve come to realize that creation is the key to making the most out of life.

Only by creating you will be able to truly feel good about life. 

As Julius Ceasar said, “It is better to create than to learn. Creating is the essence of life”.
