The three important aspects of life


The three most important aspects of life are BEING, DOING, HAVING.

BEING is the basic experience of being alive and conscious. It is the experience we have when we’re fully focused in the present moment, the experience of being totally complete and rest within ourselves.

DOING is movement and activity. It stems from the natural creative energy that flows through every living thing and is the source of our vitality.

HAVING is the state of being in relationship with other people and things in the universe. It is the ability to allow and accept things and people into our lives; to comfortably occupy the same space with them.

Being, doing and having are like triangle where each side supports the others. They are not in conflict with each other. They all exist simultaneously.

Often people attempt to live their lives backward: they try to have more things, or more money, in order to do more of what they want, so that they will be happier.

The way it actually works is the reverse. You must first be who you really are, then do what you need to do in order to have what you want.
