On lookings for once path in life (Note to a young man 1)

The true journey begins with no map. It is in the course of the journey that the map is made. A perfect map will always be the derivative of a great immersion into the journey.

I don’t underestimate the fact that one needs to have a purpose and a path in live. However, I want you to have this is mind: The world became too small for you to have one thing to live for. Having a definite live purpose is assuming that the world will remain the same for forever. It is assuming that nothing will change or that the change will not be too consequential to affect your chosen path.

But how certain are you about the fact that things will not change tomorrow. Things move fast. Before you realize it, the success or the skill you had yesterday will be obsolete and somebody else has already replaced you.

For this reason, I want you to be immune to changes. Make Yourself the paragon of change. You must be change itself. Always have it by the back of your mind that who you are and all what you’ve built will become obsolete one day. Prepare yourself for the worse possible case scénario. Make it a way of living. Flexibility, adaptability should be your way of life. Live now as if you are about to die the next second. Follow your goals as long as they are still valide but keep at the back of your mind that they will become obsolete one day. The path you are following now might become obsolete tomorrow. Fight for what you want but be ready to lose. Learn to die.
