11th Month

in #esteem5 years ago

This year started its 11th month today. In a few hours’ time, it will be the second day of the eleventh month of twenty eighteen. Waoh! How time flies like lightening. I guess time moves faster in the multitude of activities. This year was filled with activities for me: a lot of it. I was trying to push the limits in a lot of things , although many of this came out different.

One thing I have learnt about pushing the boundaries of the present to create a new future is that it puts us more at the risk of failure but never leaving us without a rare lesson to hold on to and use in subsequent endeavors. That is why giving up is like shortchanging oneself on the lessons learnt before , ready to be used again as a guiding torch.

I have learnt a lot not just in knowledge of words but in experience, such that, it becomes really hard to fall in to mistakes that easy against anyone who made a mistake and suffer the consequences rarely falls into it again. They now know how the consequences feel , firsthand.. Right there is probably why they say experience is the best teacher.

If I am allowed to give anyone a life changing advice session, one of my most reiterated sentences would be:

“Always push the boundaries but be smart about it”.
Pushing the boundaries does not leave you the same, it equips you with knowledge , wisdom and understanding because the most prevalent source of limitation in life is ignorance. We can only do as much as we know and to build a great body of knowledge ,we need to experiment , fail (many times over) and succeed eventually.

Conclusively, I am just gonna say we should learn to push boundaries always in whatever we do, or else, we risk ignorance and loss at many levels of life while losing the chance to be an icon of change and development.
