No-one can tell you the answer. Even the books and articles you have read on personal development isn't helping you.
Same information given to 2 different people will have different affect and effect. It'll depend on how they use the information or what they do with the information. It will also depend on what they comprehend about the information, everyone will have their own subjective personal meaning to a given information.
I've given it a thought of what to say, and the end result will always end up to;
"what are you going to do about it?".
I thought about the best thing to say to you without repeting the things you have read in the past. I think this is the best that I can come up with:
"If the supreme being told you to 'be ready' at any time because he will come and get you without any further notice. What would you do for the rest of your time, not knowing when you will be going."
When I realized that my time here on earth was limited, my views of life changed. I wanted to experience and live life to the fullest, I wanted to experience everything that I could experience. Everything I do now has a meaning. I cherish every moment I spent time with friends and love ones. I cherish the things I do and create.
There were certain things in my life that I lost and there were certain things that I nearly lost. This opened my awareness that we don't appreciate things we have until we have lost it. You need to learn how to value your time here on earth. Anything in life that you value the most, you will tend to look after it. If you don't value it much, then it doesn't mean much to you,...
there is no reason for being if there is no meaning. What does time, mean to you? what does life, mean to you?
...then again, it will always depend on what you do with what I just said. You see, it's not up to the things you read, or hear, or see,... it's what you do after reading, hearing, seeing, receiving those advice.
Bless you and everyone reading this, that you all may find your way
