Life is a system of push and pull.
The right design involves being pushed by your past and pulled by your future.
The past is behind you, so any push is a nudge to move forward.
The future is ahead of you, so any pull is a nudge to move forward.
This is why having a purpose-driven life is so important. It is a fuel for this design.
The opposite of this design – being pulled by your past and pushed by your future – is symptomatic of a lack of purpose.
