When people say "live life to the fullest," what do they mean?

Question:They mean to enjoy life the best you can. But also to take chances, experience new and exciting things. Making an effort to do what you love, even though it may not be the most practical choice.

For some, its a philosophy is the most rewarding and fulfilling because you made a choice to "live life to the fullest.

The opposite of this is living a passive, ordinary life. In all likelyhood, leaving you with the feeling that one day, when you look back at it all, you may feel regret or wishing you had lived life differently.

Get your *** off the couch.

pretty self explaitory big guy

They mean don't hold anything back, go all out and don't have any regrets.

it means have lots of fun, do your best, and just live life.

Life is short ... don't be afraid to get out there and go for it, move toward your goals, have experiences, make the most of your time.

they mean try everything you can.... do everything you can,.... don't be mad for the littlest things & always be happy............ Live every secind like it was ur last one

Do much more than the mundane things that life demand. Challenge yourself and do not always take the safe way out of things.

they mean to take advantage of each day and not sit on the couch all day playing video games

Its not like don't care about life but dont go wasting your life away. do everything that makes you happy or things that you enjoy. I know ppl that take a job that they enjoy than taking a job that pays more.

'Live life to the fullest' means 'make the most of life'. If you understand that one either, it means take every opportunity you can.

It means be social, and make new friends when your old ones are gone. Don't retreat into your shell, be confident. It just means you only live once (exception to religious followers) so you've got to make the best of it, and make it a good life. =]

I see it as doing whatever you can to fulfill your dreams and letting nothing stop you. Have the attitude that you can accomplish anything you set your mind to. Go after everything good that life has to offer. Enjoy every day you are blessed to be alive.

Live like you were dying

They mean that you must live your own life with out any body get in your way, live a life of enjoyment , spend money on your self and be always out going,and only listen to your own thoughts

Drink up!!!

Live everday like it will be your last / Experience as many different experiences as you can in your lifetime / give 100% of yourself to everything you do.
