Lifestyle is not a competition, not a comparison. Lifestyle is the product of what you choose to prioritize and decide to do next. Thus, it will continually evolve.
Do not worry about your place amongst the herd. Social, financial, and familial rank and order should not define success. You will always be less than someone or something. Perception belongs to the eye of the beholder. The path you travel should afford continual arrival, yet remain aware that you will never arrive, there is only one true ending, which we live to postpone. Do not rest in satisfaction upon completion. Close the door and move into the now. Focus on choice in the moment. Does it align with virtuousness? Does it align with ego and greed? Your intuition is there to guide you.
Lifestyle is taught. Examples are sought. Humans are beautiful at the fringes, where the original brains form non-compliant existences. Here, space from society affords creativity. Enough stillness to listen within, to hear our intuitive nature beckon us into creation. From this place, originality is born. Alignment with your higher nature arises from stillness (external and internal).
Lifestyle is a choice. It is a persistent choice of that which internally drives you to participate. Is it strong enough to move you to action? To continue when no attention is given? Purposeful action is your self-definition. Awareness, moment to moment, will drive you toward right-action. Remember, do not seek perfection, and do not be unduly harsh in analysis. Recognize what you are willing to change and focus your energy on that area. You need not adopt the value system, or behavior of another to be successful. Yet, you must define existence as you seek to live it.
