“A life without cause is a life without effect.”
— Paulo Coelho
Simplified Meaning:
If someone doesn't have a purpose or reason for living, their actions won't make much of a difference in the world. Imagine a student who goes to school every day but doesn’t care about learning or what they want to become. Because they don't have a goal, they might not try hard, and their grades and future chances won't be great. On the other hand, if that student decides they want to be a doctor to help people, they'll work harder and study more. As a result, they’ll likely do well in school and make a positive impact on others in the future. This idea is a reminder that having a goal or mission helps us achieve meaningful outcomes and make our lives count.
