Meaningfully, what is the meaning of the purpose of meaning of life?

What is the meaning of the purpose of the meaning of life?


This is a profoundly philosophical question with no definitive answer, as it varies from person to person.


For some, the meaning of life might lie in the pursuit of happiness, love, and relationships; for others, it may be found in the pursuit of knowledge, achievements, or helping others.


Some believe that life has no inherent meaning and that it is up to us to create it.

Ultimately, the meaning of life is about how each individual chooses to live and find value in their existence. It can come from passions, connections with others, or contributing to a greater cause.

whats so hard to understand?

purpose of life is to live in the moment.

you are very lucky to just EXIST.

do you realize there are many other things never got the chance to exist?

The 5 AM Club: What Is It And Should You Join?


Waking up at 5 am may seem like a nightmare, but for a growing number, it's the route to a fulfilled life.


Based on a book of the same name, the 5 am club is all about rising early to concentrate on your life goals before the rest of the world wakes up.

This new trend became popular in 2018 when the club’s ‘President’, Robin Sharma, released his book titled ‘




The 5 am Club: Own Your Morning. Elevate Your Life’.
《早晨5点起床俱乐部：掌控清晨，成就人生》

It’s since become an international bestseller and the concept has become a bit of an online sensation too.

Now, members are soaring. Influencers sing the club’s praises. Life coaches share Sharma’s motivational quotes.


Social platforms are awash with the #5amclub hashtag.
So, given its popularity, it may be time to consider your own 5 am club application.



On my first morning, I got all the wisdom found in Sharma’s book and felt ready to apply it to my own life.

Here are three key ideas I learned from Blinkist’s explainer of The 5 AM Club.

1. You Need to Protect Your Limited Mental Capacity
We all have a limited mental capacity or cognitive bandwidth. And this can easily be taken up with work responsibilities, childcare duties, social media notifications, and all the errands we need to run.

We may have the best intentions to work out or read a chapter of a personal development book each day, but before we know it, our to-do lists have taken over and our cognitive bandwidth has been used up.

Getting up at 5 A.M., and focusing on the things that matter to us first thing without any distractions, stops this from happening.

早上5点起床，先专注于对我们最重要的事情，避免任何干扰，能够有效避免这种情况的发生。

2.


Use Day Stacking to Improve One Skill by 1% Each Day
One hour a day doesn’t sound like much when you want to improve a skill, especially when you only spend 20 minutes of that hour reading and learning.


But Sharma argues that a small amount of daily progress can add up.

This is what he calls “day stacking.”

If you aim to improve a skill by just 1% each day, over a year, these days will stack up and you’ll have improved by more than 300%.

“All change is hard at first, messy in the middle, and gorgeous at the end.”

使用“日积月累”法每天提高1%的技能

每天一小时看似不多，尤其是当你在这其中只花20分钟进行阅读和学习时，似乎不足以提升技能。

但Sharma认为，每天的小进步会积累起来。

这就是他所说的“日积月累”。

如果你每天只提高1%的技能，一年下来，这些天数会积累成一个巨大变化，你的技能提升将超过300%。

“所有的改变开始时都很困难，中间有些混乱，但最终会变得非常美好。”

Robin S. Sharma.


3. Follow the 20/20/20 Rule

Waking up at 5 A.M. alone won’t transform your life. After all, you could just wake up and spend the extra time on social media or watching T.V. The 20/20/20 rule is what makes Sharma’s morning routine so powerful.

Sharma says you should spend 20 minutes on vigorous exercise, 20 minutes on reflection by meditating and journaling, and 20 minutes on growth by reading and learning.

Sharma提到，您应该花20分钟进行剧烈运动，
20分钟进行冥想和写日记反思，
另外再花20分钟通过阅读和学习来成长。

He recommends this order, but, of course, you can customize the routine to suit your life and goals. The point is you get up early and spend an hour bettering yourself each day.


Take excellent care of the front end of your day, and the rest of your day will pretty much take care of itself.

Own your morning.

Elevate your life.


At the top level, the benefits include **** a reduction of stress***** in the morning,

**Maintain Consistent Wake Times**	Helps realign your circadian rhythm for better sleep quality.
**Aim for Quality Sleep**	A consistent schedule supports uninterrupted, restful sleep.

/---------------------------/

**Time**	**Brain Activity and Effects**
Early Morning	- Brain feels calm and focused due to changes in chemical composition.
	- Prefrontal cortex (responsible for overthinking) is temporarily less active.
	- Dopamine多巴胺 and serotonin levels increase, promoting energy and tranquility.
During the Day	- Engaging in activities like social media, online interactions, and TV fills up brain "bandwidth".
	- Limited mental capacity is left for learning or absorbing new information.
Conclusion	Starting the day early allows better focus and productivity, setting a positive tone.

**Tips to Join the 5 AM Club**	**Details**
**Start in Increments**	Gradually wake up earlier (e.g., from 7:00 am to 6:45 am) to make the transition smoother.

[The Meaning of Life]

{{Reflections on Life}}

After a few days of doing absolutely nothing during the holiday, I have finally recharged my tired body and am ready to start work for 2025.
There are only 3 days left, and the new year is about to begin.

When I was about ten years old, I often asked myself,
"If the ultimate end of life is death, then why do we need to live?"
However, life went on— from birth to studying, exams, work, marriage, raising children, and finally retirement.

More than thirty years have passed, and I finally have the leisure to ask myself that Million Dollar Question again:
If everyone must die, what is the meaning of life?
I think the best answer is experience.
Each person comes into this world to experience their own life.

{{The Journey of Life}}

We live not for others, not for our parents or children; we live to experience our own journey.
Whether you choose to work hard your whole life or live a laid-back existence, it's a personal choice.

As long as no one is harmed, there is no right or wrong.
Be good to yourself, without needing a reason.

{{Memories of Each Stage}}

Whether it’s crying after losing a game at seven…
Failing to get enough A’s at twelve and not getting into the school you wanted…
Partying with friends until late at eighteen…
Feeling lost after graduation at twenty-three, like a rookie at your first job…
At thirty, when your wife just had a baby, living a fulfilling life as a parent…
At forty, when all your friends start retiring early, but you’re still working hard for a living…

At fifty, when your friends begin getting sick and are forced to retire…
At sixty, when your grandchild is born and you're busy taking care of them…
At seventy, when all your friends are passing away…

Each stage of life has its sweet memories worth savoring.
We should spend each day with those around us, creating more happy memories.

{{Cherish the Present}}

No matter what age we are, for the things and people that interest us, we shouldn’t hesitate because of our age.
If there's something we want to try, we should just do it.

Perhaps in the future, there will be even more experiences worth reliving.
From another perspective, the so-called "experiencing life" is really just about how to happily pass the time.

{{Life’s Routine}}

I think life needs a certain routine. We need a home to rest in and daily activities that may seem repetitive but can fill our time meaningfully.
These could include watering plants, feeding pets, cooking, cleaning, exercising, reading, watching shows, or writing.
In addition, we can spice things up with occasional trips, having fun with family and friends, or meeting up with old friends.

This can be quite satisfying and fulfilling.
I hope to save more money, keep exercising, and accumulate more memories.

{{Looking Ahead}}

2025 is about to begin, and I look forward to what the new year will bring.

if u reali interested 2 knoe, try explore various riligen… each point 2 different truths… choose ur own madu

Islam (Afterlife):
Muslims believe in a final judgment where souls are either rewarded with paradise (Jannah) or punished in hell (Jahannam) based on their deeds, faith, and adherence to Allah’s guidance.


Buddhism (Afterlife):
Buddhists believe in reincarnation (samsara), where the soul is reborn based on karma.
The ultimate goal is to achieve nirvana, liberation from suffering and the cycle of rebirth.


Hinduism (Afterlife):
Hindus believe in reincarnation (samsara), where the soul is reborn based on karma.
The ultimate goal is to achieve moksha, liberation from the cycle of birth and rebirth, and union with Brahman.


Christianity (Afterlife):
Christians believe in eternal life after death.
Those who accept Jesus Christ as Savior are promised eternal life in heaven, while those who reject Him face eternal separation from God in hell.


Catholicism (Afterlife):
Catholics believe in heaven, hell, and purgatory. Souls of the faithful who die in grace go to heaven, while sinners may go to hell, or undergo purification in purgatory.


Buddhism and Hinduism share the belief in reincarnation, where the soul is reborn based on past actions (karma). The goal in both is to escape the cycle of rebirth and attain liberation (nirvana or moksha).



These similarities suggest that many religions believe in the continuation of life after death in some form, whether through judgment, reincarnation, or spiritual liberation.

However, the specific details of these beliefs, such as the process, criteria for reward or punishment, and the nature of the afterlife, vary across different religions.

Preparing for the next life. Unless you can prove there is no next-life?

i believe



Buddhism and Hinduism share the belief in reincarnation, where the soul is reborn based on past actions (karma).

The goal in both is to escape the cycle of rebirth and attain liberation (nirvana or moksha).

Hindu think Buddhism is just another branch of Hinduism. Hence the similarities.

Buddhism teaches that nothing is permanent. So nirvana is also not permanent.

ancient Egyptians oso believe ...

via hypno western scientists slowly slowly provd there's reincarnations


Many very young children oso can recall past lives...but..they dun have sufficient language skills 2 tellall... as they develop ability to communicate they lose past lives memory... With internet n all, can do research.. many documented proof ..

Anyways as buddhist, v believe this body is precious, not easy to be reincarnated as humans ( brains + ), as such must x waste our chance on earth to repay all our past / present debts ( fyi whomever u meet this life, v met b4 past lives....they exist 4 us to repay?) b4 moving on another adventure another life...

Got watch this?
Eternal Love (Chinese: 三生三世十里桃花; pinyin: San Sheng San Shi Shi Li Tao Hua), also known as Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms,

Three hundred years later, the two meet again at the East Sea King's son's full moon banquet. Ye Hua discovers that Bai Qian is actually Su Su from the past. The two stay together, rekindling their romance.


i prefer Time-travel drama series

Strange. I have different way of viewing it but not from the Buddhism. Rather I believe the memories experienced by each individual during their lifetime will be immortalized. Some memories were great memories as it still the impacts the life even after the passing of the individual. Hence, built the beautiful & meaningful memory while we are still alive & kicking.

If you think memories can be recycled, then it points to reincarnation.

piap and piap

you sure boh?

don't cincai say

If nothing is permanent, so how can nirvana be permanent?

That is the “goal” of life. But what is the “purpose” of life?
Goal and purpose are 2 different things.

Yes you are right the language is not exactly perfect.
If you prefer, 'nothing in human life is permanent'.

The ultimate of Buddhism is Nirvana, similar but not precisely equivalent with Abrahamic's 'heaven' or 'one with god'.
