My Own Consciousness


	I am conscious of my own existence, I know I exist, I know what I know, but do I
know what is the essence of life? Do I know my place and mission in this existence?
	Modern life existence is a very difficult existence to explain. Until now, I never
questioned my own existence. And believe me; this is a challenging question.
	I consider myself a very traditional person, but at the same time very modern,
what a contradiction, don�t you think? Under this terms, I will make an attempt to
explain my ideas; of the world as it appears to me, just like Kant, with a little twist of
modern thinking.
	We live in a society with so much pressure, so much desire of finishing things
fast, that we in general never stop to make any long term plan, or analysis of our past.
This is very important on the way we see the world. We have the tendency to see the
world one day at a time. And there is a lot of reasons for my belief. In order to survive in
our competitive society you must keep the fast pace, if you move to the slow line the
people in the fast line will pass you in a heart beat. Therefore this lack of time, or should
say, lack of rationality to conceive a strategy to achieve speed in the fast line don�t allow
us to formulate a concrete philosophical way of thinking, a philosophical ways of life,
that is logic, and in accordance with our basic fundamentals. 
	Every day life challenges us with different situations , we are faced with all kind
of dilemmas, both , professionally and personally. Those challenges and the decisions we
made must be based on our rationality, our instinct, and are all driven by a purpose. The
purpose of every human being is success. 
	Success is the major force that drives humanity to do the things that we do. In that
process we accomplish our social contributions to society. Our desire to accomplish our
goals, achieve happiness, and spiritual perfection are the everlasting aim of human
existence, which we call success. That pursue of success is present in everyday life, and
it�s an important factor in our existence. Success is complete when we achieve our goals
in life to the fullest. Those goals can be professional, financial, or personal. For example;
getting promoted and raising to the top of your profession, attaining a comfortable
financial position, and having a productive marriage filled with love and harmony, are
examples of most people goals in life. And the complete fulfillment of those goals will
make the individual existence worthy.
	Each one of us use the means available to him or her to achieve that success.
Regardless of rightness or wrongness of our actions, the goal is the same. And the
aftermath of that success is our own survival. Call that mysterious force  instinct, but
there is something in human nature that calls for self preservation.
	For the pessimist; the world is not fair to him because it denies him the speed to
compete in the fast line. For the optimist; he sees the modern world as a machine that
push him forward towards success and into the fast line, with more speed as each day
pass. Optimist�s make the worse  situations into situations of personal grow that enrich
them and send them flying into that fast line. To the pessimist bad situations just slow
him down and make him move slower and slower into that slow line.
	The bottom line is that you need to stay in that fast line. So how do you achieve
that in the modern era? Just simply be: the best there was, the best there is and the best
there ever will be.
	Yes , I am an optimist, I know that tomorrow the sun will shine a lot brighter than
today, I know that tomorrow will always be better than yesterday. And yes, we have our
problems, but those problems just make us stronger and stronger. 
	The world is a wonderful place to be in. I am very happy to be here, to be alive. I
live in full satisfaction, of who I am and what I do. I am in peace at my believes, and I
know exactly what I want to accomplish. I just want to simply be: the best there was, the
best there is, and the best there ever will be.
