This article is purposely created to set awareness and an eye-opener for everybody. Each of us has our own pathways in life and different reasons to wake up every day. Whats's the reason why we study? It's for us to gain knowledge and be educated. We want to finish in order for us to get a job. Why do we work? The common answer is to provide basic needs such as food, bills, and allowances. Do you work because it's your passion? Do you work because the company offers a bigger salary or do you work because you have big dreams and you want to keep on achieving new things in life? No matter how we differ from each other's purposes but we have the same goal and that is to survive.

Most of us want to experience tasteful foods, travel to beautiful spots, and to call our own "home" to stay in. We humans need others to build our ambitions. Some may contribute a big part to your journey and some offer less but the most important thing no matter how big or small they lend their hands to make you stand out, we should learn to appreciate it because it counts.

It's good to see people became successful in their careers, businesses, relationships, and how far they went through. Helping each other gave a great connection to build trust. We witnessed lots of life-changing stories on how they began from nothing to everything. But the question is, why there are some people "blinded by the lights" which simply means, they tend to forget who they are and where they came from.

We should plant in our minds the people behind our success. Always remember, without them, you are not what you are right now because no man is an island. Sometimes we forgot to say thank you or appreciate someone's efforts when you need them the most. Avoiding them is not a good act or key to make your self way better.

There are times that we spend more time with new ones and tend to care less about the old ones. This teaches us how to remain humble whatever you had reached. Learn to keep in touch with them. Try to bring back old good memories and through this, you will have a peaceful mind and soul.

I am going to sight 2 common scenarios where be blinded by the lights.

  • CAREER OR PROFESSION

Professionals or not you must have the core values. There are some people who took advantage of their professions in the wrong way. They used it as a threat most especially to the illiterate ones. We should know our limits in dealing with people. Having a good position does not define a kind-hearted person. It's about knowing your boundaries and never underestimate someone's capabilities.

  • MONEY

Sometimes we received bonuses, incentives, and salaries for our hard works because we deserve all those sweats and sleepless nights that is why I encourage everyone to have a piece of knowledge on how to handle money properly. This can be a lesson for buying things that are useless. If we received cash, our minds will work on how to spend and what to buy. Because of the temptations, we able to purchase stuff and forgot the necessary ones and regrets at last. Nowadays, we should learn how to spend our money wisely and invest it in something useful in the future.

Can you recall those people who helped you? Please if you have free time, try to call or message them. A simple Hello and How are you? is enough to let them feel they are remembered behind your lights.

These are some of the key points of this article. I am sure you were able to see the differences and realize lots of stuff by reading this. That's all for today. Thank you!
