Living without meaning
Then I ask myself: what do we bring to society? Or what do we give to life?

Since childhood my parents always taught me that it is important to have a vision to the future, ie, imagine where I want to be in a few years, I aspire to be, where I want to be, and what achievements I want.
In many ways I was taught to have a vision, so that having a vision for the future became a motive for living. To yearn, or to idealize something in which it is worth fighting.
In short, which gives meaning to life.
Man in search of meaning
Víctor Frankl wrote a wonderful book with this title: The man in search of meaning
It is super interesting, and worth reading, Frankl teaches us an analysis of human life in the most difficult times because he was in a concentration camp in Auschwitz.
Among the various things he learned in which I conclude is what makes the force to go forward, which helps us survive, even in those conditions, it is extremely important to have a vision to the future to find the meaning of our life above all There, where it feels like it's almost impossible to find it.
A lot of people live their lives trying to find meaning, which from certain points of view is, to live without meaning.
Probably because many of us adapt to what life provides, and teaches us. And although we always complain about the circumstances that are presented to us along this, or even the loss of opportunities that appear and do not take advantage. But we know that we are not willing to be the ones who build these own circumstances and opportunities.
And come to the conclusion that we can give you the best human beings. Because throughout the stories, people in one way or another can change it, even if it seems impossible, or is going through difficult circumstances and conditions.
For example, in many cases in different areas, people do not have the place they deserve, but others, there are instances like our person who overlap their own conditions. For example, people who fight for their lives in hospitals, clinics, etc..
What I'm trying to say is that there are a lot of people who have transcended and not publicly but privately. They are great people who leave traces and teachings in our hearts and who manage to inspire us in our vision for the future.
That is why we have to live today and not think about tomorrow. In a way to have a vision for the future of whether it is like a blueprint for a building that has not yet been built. But living without this vision would be like building this House without the plane and without having an idea of how this would end.
All the great works in humanity: artistic, scientific or political, have been the result of a vision – one that was executed.
I have often mentioned that personal finances are a tool. I have insisted that money is not an end in itself – or should not be – but a means to achieve what we truly want to achieve.
And that, dear readers, has to do with our vision of the future: without which, for more personal finances than we read, we will achieve nothing.
