If one does not think about life and does not realize plans, then it will be uninteresting. Yes, perhaps comfortable, perhaps even bright momentarily, but the thoughtless construction of life sooner or later begins to strain a person with its meaninglessness. Sooner or later, the question will arise about the meaning of life. Why do you need to live? Damn question. Because you can answer it only yourself, based on your feelings. How to live, so that the years were lived in vain?
Is it bad to dream?
Understand your dreams. The most important thing to know is that you should not waste time on dreams. If you set a goal, immediately brainstorm and find ways to implement it. It is good to set goals in the evening and return to them with a fresh head in the morning. You should not rejoice ahead of time, because in this way your brain deceives you, replacing real happiness with dreams of it. Now you know about it. How to live? It is meaningful and without unnecessary representations of yourself in bright situations.
Merciless boss to himself
Learn to control yourself in time. In fact, time cannot be controlled, because it goes without your control, it cannot be returned. Today it will never happen again, so start changing your life immediately. Tomorrow may not come at all, and every day should be such that it is not painful ... ashamed. Every day your goals should be realized, but you should feel a little unhappy.
About pleasures
Some say that "you need to live high." With this same buzz you need to be careful. Because the impulsive pursuit of pleasures destroyed so many lives. Of course, life should not be joyless. But in order to get real happiness, you need to look for complex ways. Communicate with nature, this will allow you to feel part of the world and feel the presence of the great nearby, even if you do not believe in God. You will be distracted from the bustle and realize your true values, and not imposed by the modern rhythm of life. Of course, leaving to live in a village is not an option for most. But from time to time it is possible to seek communication with nature even to the busiest urban professional.
Half-Forgotten Paths to Happiness
If you believe in God, then the question “how to live” will not torment you much, just read good spiritual books. If you are “off topic”, you don’t know yet that the book of Nicodemus Svyatogorets “The Invisible Scolding” contains a good theory of scientific knowledge and critical analysis. And the Proverbs of Solomon amaze with the depth of the description of life. And this is not boring at all, the main thing is to set a goal - and you will find a lot of useful things for your life. By the way, nowadays fashionable meditation is practiced in Christian prayer, only you focus not on one mantra, but on a deep prayer text. So in faith there is much that the layman does not suspect.

In general, only an active person can be happy. Especially happy are those who see the fruits of their labor - children who have become successful adults (teachers), beautiful houses (architects), warm sweaters (knitters). And even age is not a hindrance to activity. For example, an American with a rather large pension earned seeks a review of death sentences. This is very stressful, but the result is dozens of saved lives.
How to live? With high goals. Do not justify laziness with arguments about high, but make your life and others joyful.
