The Art Of Successful Living

If I were to ask you what it means to live successfully, what would your answer be?

Success means different things to different people, but in general, most people would agree that to be physically healthy, have healthy relationships, and have enough money to live comfortably and not worry about bills would constitute for them a successful life.

But is that enough? What about purpose? What about joy? What about loving your work and living with passion? If those elements are not in place then you are not living as successfully as you could be. It is true that living successfully is an art, and as any artist will tell you, the real key to bringing a masterpiece to life is having the proper tools, the proper canvas upon which to paint, the proper brushes and the proper mindset.

Our lives are no different. To build a successful life we must have both the blueprints and the proper tools and materials with which to work. It is possible to have both success and balance in your life, and I am going to share with you how to accomplish it. That is where the artistry comes in.

The answer to creating not only a successful life but a masterpiece lies in understanding the universal laws and principles that govern the inner world, as well as knowing how to put those laws into action in the outer world. There is a simple formula for achieving anything you desire: T+A=R ( Thoughts plus Actions equals Results)

In the ancient philosophical belief system of Hawaii called Huna, there are seven principles that govern living a successful life:

1- Ike ( ee-kay) - The world is what you think it is.
2- Kala (kah’-lah) - There are no limits.
3- Makia (mah-kee’-ah) - Energy flows where attention goes.
4- Manawa ( mah’nah-vah) - Now is the moment of power.
5- Aloha ( ah-loh’-hah) - Love is to be happy with.
6- Mana (mah’nah) - All power comes from within.
7- Pono (poh’-no) - Effectiveness is the measure of truth.

Principles one through six govern the inner world, and principle seven talks of action and results. When these principles are understood and applied in one’s life, and the proper actions are taken in line with these principles, we truly can live a life of joy and passion and purpose, and like an artist create a masterpiece that will inspire others to want to do the same and learn how it was done.

The human spirit longs for beauty, peace, stability and wisdom. All of these and more are components of the art of living a truly successful life, and when these inner principles are learned and applied the natural outcome is a life that is filled with harmony, abundance, love and joy. When I see someone who embodies these elements in his or her life and work, I stop for a moment and, with the same admiration I have looking at a great work of art, I say to myself, “There goes a master.”

With the right knowledge, the right tools ,the right guidance , and the right actions, the possibility is there for anyone to become a master of the art of successful living.
