“It’s not about how you achieve your dreams. It’s about how to lead your life. If you lead your life the RIGHT WAY, the karma (good results, destiny, fortune, good luck) will take care of itself. The dreams will come to you.”
BY: Randy Pausch
Randy Pausch emphasizes the importance of being a good person and living life the right way. Many may interpret this in many ways but by good he means by being a good person and making the right decisions. When you choose the right there is nothing that came go wrong because you already chose the right. Doing right will only bring good into your life hence the work karma in the statement. I believe that as children we are taught to be good but as we row up our ambitions get the best of us. This leads to being a bad person because you will choose the wrong in order to obtain what we think is important. In that case what’s important is being successful, living lavish and accomplishing your dreams. Although those aren’t bad aspirations in life it is never good to accomplish them in a way where you can hurt others or yourself. Like Pausch said it doesn’t matter how you achieve your goals but how you lead your life. It is better to accomplish your dreams and lead a life of good than to life a life of bad and accomplish the same goals. Think of it as a two for the price of one deal, and who doesn’t like to save money. Just in this case living a life of will not only get you money but more friends because you are made of good. The more people like you the more they are going to recommend you for job opportunities that will allow you to accomplish your dreams. I believe GOD is made up of good and will only bring good our ways. It Is up to us which path we want take. If we continue on the path of goodness He will take care of us. In Conclusion, I have heard of Randy Pausch before and his speech was very poignant and it left me thinking of what I would like to pass down before I pass, and that was to be a good person. I am a good person with a strange personality and I’m truly blessed. I am blessed with amazing friends, teachers/mentors, parents, and siblings. The point is I agree with everything he said and because I’ve heard of him before already live according to this statement and overall speech.
