“…don’t make dreams your master,
Don’t make thoughts your aim.”

To have an intrinsic goal like finding more joy and happiness in my life,
To create habits like mindfulness, meditation, journaling and blogging,
Practice good nutrition, exercise, sleeping
Practice listening and learning,
Be a good person or live the good life,
Do my opus,
The ‘why’ or answer is to practice philosophy because it ads more to life than it takes away,
Philosophy can show a good way to renew the present.
