A life of significance is measured by the quality of how we live in the present. "How well have I served my spouse today? How well have I focused on caring for my neighbor? How well have I used my God-given talents at work today?" When we focus on the what, we turn inward, making it more difficult to hear God's voice. When we focus on the how, we look outward, diminishing our own selves so that the lives of others may be enhanced.
