Michael Jr. explained why this one question will transform your entire perspective. The funnyman pointed out a simple yet powerful question that most people rarely, if ever, consider. Watch the short but insightful clip to hear Michael Jr. discuss this question and why it can make such a difference.
Life is not a fair experience most of the time. Anyone who says or believes otherwise is incredibly naïve and only fooling themselves. At some point, those people will be in for a rude awakening. Nasty, horrible and heartbreaking situations do occur. To make them even worse, they often happen without a moment’s notice.
During these moments of pain, suffering and heartache, people tend to ask a lot of questions of themselves and others. They seek many answers. Some of those questions will be answered, but most will go unanswered. That can be a hard pill to digest for many, but the fact is that it’s only through this process, of asking questions and seeking answers, that anything ever changes.
In a clip posted on social media, Michael Jr. mentioned a question that most people consider or even think about, but when they do, their entire perspective can and likely will change. Pondering this question will give people a sense of purpose in life and not leave them feeling as if they are going through the emotions.
He mentioned that everyone, especially kids, is asked what they want to do when they grow up. But if you probe a little further and ask, well, why do you want to do this or that, he says it will often come back to money. But that kind of a mindset will leave people unfulfilled.
“Here’s the question you want to ask instead,” he said. “This question is so much better. Ask the question, ‘Who do I want to serve?’ And I’m not saying in some spiritual way, but it just fits that way as well. But when you ask the question, 'Who do I want to serve?' It changes everything.”
Later in the clip, he said he had this revelation while talking to a mechanic who said he does not fix cars but serves and helps people get to their destination.
“So, if you focus on the people, it’ll, it’ll put your alarm clock out of business,” he added.
Philippians 2:3 “Doing nothing through envy or through pride, but with low thoughts of self, let everyone take others to be better than himself.”
