No one can say he has seen it all in the course of living. Journeying through life entails getting new experiences daily no matter your age. That's why experience is needed from elders if someone wants to scale through life and of course wants to avoid some mistakes in life. No one can boast of being the greatest teacher in the theory of life. You only have vast knowledge of life if you have so much experience in it. Life is a puzzle no one have solved completely because no one can understand it all. But it's always better to learn from old people of their past experiences and make use of the best of them. Though not all advices should be taken, consider those ones that can help you and make use of them.
Life is like a zigzag, it's not predictable. What works for you might not work for other person. Find out time to consider yourself and what can help you achieve your goals. Trust me, self evaluation sometimes helps you to go on the right lane than some "outside" advice. I have compiled some general life tips which works for everyone or let say most. Find time to study them and build on them.
1. Do not look down on others.
Don't be carried away by the outward appearances. Try to look inwardly into people and life will be easier. Trust me, you might learn the biggest lesson of life from a kid much younger than you. You don't always have to judge a book by its cover. Be humble and kind to all regardless of their personalities. Don't say someone can't speak a word of relevance because they are illiterate. That's absurd, remember experience sometimes supercede academic knowledge. Don't treat others like a piece of trash, you might just need their help someday. I have been taught some important lessons of life from strangers, people you might not want to stand with.
2. Don't despise the days of your little beginning. Not all have the opportunity to start big and large. Don't be intimidated by people who started big around you, remember that slow and steady wins the race. In the journey of life, most successful people we see today started humbly from a scratch, they are not ashamed of their little beginning, instead they built up on that small start which later escalate into something big. Once you started something maybe business wise or anything, just believe that you can make it thrive into your expectations. Don't despise that little beginning of yours, build it into something big.
3. Don't rely or depend totally on people to succeed.
You might have often hear the phrase, "promise and fail". That's people for you, someone who promised to help you will unexpectedly fail you, that's not his problem though, it's yours. Nobody is responsible for your life talk
less of your success. You are the one that need to work hard if you want to succeed. In this life, no one really cares about you except your family. It's when you succeed and make it is when people always want to be attached to you. Nobody will associate with someone still struggling.
4. Always persevere and endure.
Perseverance is an indispensable virtue we all need to possess. The journey of life is not always smooth and straight. It's only the endured soirit that scale through in life. Life is not always like the bed of roses. You have to be strong and keep moving because everything will eventually fall in the right places for you. Some have committed suicide because they could not come with life challenges. Don't let your story be like that. Remember endurance is always needed to win the race, sometimes that's all that matters in achieving your life goals.
5. Always believe in God.
I also wondered how life will be without the intervention of God. We must always believe in our creator in the journey of life. He is the one that designed life and he knows what's the best for us. Trust not in your strength but find solace in the Lord and he will direct your path. Many has gone astray in life because they're not following God's plan for their life. Believe and trust him, life will be great.
Life is what? Let me hear what you know about it. Thanks.
