TED blog 7 Ric Elias on Three Things That I Learned While My Plane Crashed

People in this day and age have learned to live in the moment, but sometimes living in the moment doesn’t allow us to see the bigger picture in life. When someone fails to see their own bigger picture they may never know their purpose in life and they may never find out. It took a plane crash for Ric Elias to see his bigger picture. It took that for him to find out that his purpose in life and the only thing that mattered to him was for him to be an amazing parent. It took a plane crash for him to realize that life is too short to waste especially too short waste the time that matters with those who matter to you. The lesson that he wanted to pass on to everyone was that living in the moment can be great but it all comes down to knowing your purpose in life and finding that one goal that will make you happy. Find the joy in life because it is too short to waste.
