Question: What if I were able to say that I have only today? I want to live it as if it were my last day. Is that the right approach?

Answer: Yes, certainly.

Question: How can a person do something that seems impossible?

Answer: By convincing yourself that when you think positively about the world, you improve the world and help bring it to a better state. This is your responsibility toward the world.

Comment: How did the world suddenly enter our discussion? We were talking about my life.

My Response: You were born for this: to think about how you can improve the world. You and only you. By wishing to improve the world, you ask for it to change.

Question: Do you realize that we are speaking about ordinary people?

Answer: Ordinary people. If we want to change our world, then we must think only about one thing: that we want it to change.

Question: And is that what it means to truly live life?

Answer: Of course. It means understanding that everything must be done now, without waiting.

Question: And where is my “I” in all this? Where is my personal decision?

Answer: In the present moment.

Question: Right now?

Answer: Right now. That is where your “I” exists. Beyond that, it does not exist. If you do not stop and decide, “Now, only now!” then you are no longer truly present.

Question: You once studied human capabilities. I think you even worked on research involving hypothermia and how much a person can endure.

Answer: Yes.

Question: What are the limits of human potential? Can a person actually reach such a state? Is it possible to live for the sake of the world in this way?

Answer: I think so. We simply need to speak to people about it.

Question: Do you believe that what we say actually enters people?

Answer: Yes, it helps.

Question: How does that happen? Where does it enter a person so that he suddenly changes?

Answer: Into the air.

Question: So, to summarize: how does a person live life with “one arrow,” with one chance?

Answer: One must constantly think about improving the world. Nothing else is required. Only thoughts, only our desires.

Question: And what do you mean by improving the world?

Answer: Good relations between people.

Question: As simple as that?

Answer: Yes.
