Time is akin to the hardworking heart. When the heart stops, time comes to an end for you. When time ceases, you come to an end.

Because the time ticks away endlessly, the heart pumps tirelessly, no one is entitled to relax. Relax. What are you here for? On the Earth? According to the general consensus, you are seeking for satisfaction, happiness and well-being in your entire life. And how do you find them in life?

Satisfaction arises from a sense of purpose. With a sense of purpose comes a set of goals. When goals are achieved, be it long-term or short-term goals, you are satisfied. You make it possible to achieve the goals. A man sets a goal to increase his salary payment: for the next few years, his purpose is focused and he succeeds. He is satisfied. A student plans to improve his English proficiency; he sets goals to read a book every week. He forwards his goals to actions and he accomplishes them.

Happiness is a blessing. Happiness is tangible and is up to you to realise it. Happiness is a human nature, crops up from an instinct of "on top of the world" and of "life is good". Many approaches are possible to achieve true happiness but the fundamental element lies within you. Again, it is you to decide. You evoke the sense by engaging the world. You control your happiness and nobody else does.

Well-being is both physiology and psychology. Well-being generally deals with health of the body and of the mind. You have satisfaction and happiness, but that never guarantee you well-being. The converse is no more true. Well-being is settled by you: you want well-being, you work and find it. With exercise, you find well-being for the body; with meditation, for the mind.

For as long as the heart beats, the time crepts, you are on a wonderful journey, defined by you, to life's greatest satisfaction, happiness and well-being. What are they? Though they are abstract ideas, they are in your hands. You just need to hold them tight in grip and rise up the fist in front of you and say, "I have them all the time!" And they are yours.

Warner Buffet once observed, "There will never be a better you than you."

And just as the heart beats rhythmically and time ticks away mercilessly at every single moment, will you be none of the you that you are meant to be to achieve satisfaction, happiness and well-being? Because there will never be a better time to be the best of you than today. And if not now, then when?
