RE: Move forward by moving yourself forward...

in #psychology6 years ago

Wow!

I've often heard the phrase, "life isn't meant to be easy" and whilst life certainly isn't easy I also don't think it needs to be hard. Life is just life and we will be confronted with good and bad, some we can control and some we can't.

How very true!

You know I use to tell folks that " Life's a teacher. Now you can't tell your teacher what to teach you but you can tell yourself what you want to learn. We don't control the process, we determine the outcome." Seems we're two minds worlds apart but still in the same line of thought.

Experience taught you and you learnt. Now you're teaching us and I've again learnt to avoid succumbing to the whims of stress (something I'm very prone to) and just take five seconds to think what to do and what not to do, I'll soon be able to buy the car of my dreams😁

In the end, we'll eventually realize that all we've learnt from life, all life's taught us has been precisely what we need to live a fulfilled life. So for those who say "Life isn't meant to be easy", I'd say the problem is them and their attitude to the lessons Life's trying to teach them. Perhaps they forget each person has a different curriculum and as such a different life. They just need to work on their mindset to get their minds set on what's truly important...just like you and your wife have done.

Nicely said!

Every moment presents a learning opportunity. Life is a great teacher, if we are open and aware to the lessons presented before us.

"Birds of a feather flock together" @godwine & @galenkp. I love how Steemit brings the philosophers (my father would have called us navel-gazers) together :-)

😆😊
I'm glad I have the opportunity to meet and reason with great minds here. It's my dream to personally meet everyone I've met here😁

I looked at your profile to see you're from Nigeria. I've never been to Africa, maybe one day.

Nice line that!
