What Are You Looking for in Life?
Here's a favorite quote from Robert Lewis Stevenson:

"An aim in life is the only fortune worth finding."

How many of us live our journey through life looking for things? It's a common approach. Surround ourselves with enough things and everything will be all right.

It's not a be-all and end-all to life, though. I know a woman whose husband was an extremely wealthy man. They lived in a beautiful home in a ritzy lakefront setting. They had all the trappings of wealth.

Then one night as she lay in bed reading, he walked into the bedroom, casually sat down, pulled a pistol out of the nightstand and, without a word, blew his brains out.

He had more money than he knew what to do with, but his life had become purposeless. There's more to life, and more to business, than just accumulating money.

Find a purpose in life through what you do. Find a way to make the world a little better place. Focus on solving people's problems through your business or through whatever else you do. Only then will you find a life worth living.
