What Matters

This week in class we discussed this quote:

"I see no reason to get up in the morning if I don't mean to matter." - Tom Peter

I believe this quote is advocating that we should go about each day with a purpose or a goal in mind. Although this may seem over the top or unnecessary we have to realize that everything you do is for a purpose. Whether you are just relaxing and watching TV all day, you are catching up on your sleep, which is beneficial. Hence, I think everything we do matters. This way of thinking is very optimistic and it sheds light on our individual importance in the world. The difficult part of the day is not achieving the goal or purpose, it is deciding what that goal or purpose is.
