One of my favorite quotes from John Lennon is, “People are the only animals who realize that they’re not really living.” If you don’t believe me, try this experiment: ask yourself how many times you’ve thought about a thought or idea and how many times you’ve actually acted on that thought or idea. If you have an answer, you’re probably a thinker.
If you want to go a little deeper, here is an interesting experiment. We asked people (or at least one person) to answer questions about the past, present, and future. (Which means we asked people to think about the past, in the past, and future, in the future.) Then we asked them to choose the answer they would like to have the most influence over their own lives.
In the past we asked people to guess how many of their loved ones would be alive when they actually died. We also asked them to imagine their lives starting now. We then asked them to imagine their lives ending now. We then asked them to imagine their lives ending when they were still alive. As you can see, almost all of us guessed the exact number of our loved ones that were still alive once they died.
People tend to have a tendency to pick a number that they feel the most influence over their own lives and those of their loved ones. What we found, however, is that the number of people who think the exact number that they would want to be the most influential over their own lives is actually much higher than the number of people who think the exact number that they would want to be the most influential over their loved ones.
This is a common sense type of intuition that people have about what they would like to be the most influential in their lives. But the reality is that we can’t say this with absolute certainty. We can say generally that we want to be influential in our lives, but it isn’t necessarily the exact number that we’d like to be the most influential.
I think it is because we have not been the most influential people in our lives. We have had a lot of influence on the other people, but we have only been the people we wanted to be to begin with. We have had a lot of influence on the people we wanted to be the most influential in our lives, but we have only had that influence over a very small number of people.
This isn’t to say that we shouldn’t be the most influential people in our lives. There is nothing wrong with being the most influential person in our life. We should all strive to influence the people around us, and I’m not saying we have to be the most influential people in our life, but we should all strive to be the most influential people in our lives.
This is the biggest misconception about people who want to be the most influential people in their lives. There’s a lot of people who have huge amounts of influence for a very small number of people, but in our case that means we’re probably the most influential people we know. It comes from the fact that we’re the kind of people who are able to make a huge impact on a small amount of people.
It’s not that these people don’t have influence. They don’t have any power. We are the ones who have the power. We are the ones who are able to make a difference. But let’s be real here. How did we get to be that influential? Because we are the kind of people who are able to connect the dots. That’s what we do.
