Your personal philosophy matters


According to Wikipedia


Philosophy is a way of thinking about the world, the universe, and society.

In life, where we see change as a constant reminder for the need of adapting and evolving. Our core values tend to shift from one ideology to the other.

I often wonder why certain successful people stick the same philosophy no matter how good or bad the situation is they still continue to win at 

Then, I began to dig deep, reflect, and found my reasoning as to why each personal philosophy matters and why it needs to be constant.
[Disclaimer: This is just my take on life and I do not own a degree in philosophy]


To simplify this complicated thought here is a simple way of looking at it:

There is a race between man A and man B the goal is to win at life.

In this race man, A could not stop thinking about the race, his visions, and his end goal. He runs his ass off he is determined and focused on the end goals no matter what the cost as he continuously runs his race for 5 – 10 years.

In the end, he wins.

On the other hand, there is another man B runs his own race as well because he was forced to run it but midway between the race he stops and decides to run towards a different direction with no end goal. 

He continuous this skipping races 3 or 4 times until in the end, he admits to his own defeat as he criticized his own opponents and blames his own directions, but not himself.


The value of your own philosophy in life.

Simply put a consistent philosophy can outrun an inconsistent philosophy because of its core foundation. 

A simple idea without action can mean nothing the same goes for any act of doing something with no idea will be meaningless. 

The point of having a philosophy is like a guide towards who you are as a person and finding yourself.

The act of being driven with one goal, vision, and focus can all fit in your own philosophy. 

Just trust your philosophy as you trust yourself.

Think of your philosophy as a sticker at the back of your car you know its there, and its got your back. Just stick to it.
