How It All Started With The Prostitute's Advice

The statement "using what you have to get what you want" is a very common and popular statement being used by most individuals and I am quite sure you’ve also heard such statement from people or other sources. I actually watched a movie scene in which a lady went to meet her friend for advice about how she can start making money just like her friend even though her source of income isn’t really what to talk about because she played the role of a prostitute in that movie. She smiled and replied to her by asking her “aren’t you a lady?” and her friend replied her by saying “yes of course I am a lady.” She then went further to ask her “don’t you have what it takes to turn any man on just to get you paid?”. On hearing this, her friend became astonished because she seems to be a good girl who doesn’t want to get involved in such type of shit. Her responsible friend told her “I am sorry, I won’t be able to make money with the way you’ve prescribed because I am actually not interested in doing such things at this tender age of mine”.

The Determined Tailor To Be

Let’s forget about the movie for now and let’s focus on the lesson which was why I adopted that scene. The lesson I learnt from this is that “a prostitute uses what she has (her body) just to get what she wants(money)". I hope you guys know that I am not in support of such immoral act even though I was only sighting an example from a movie I watched which perfectly explains the topic at hand. I also use this medium to encourage young ladies to do away with such immoral act as it can lead to different health hazards such as Sexual Transmitted Diseases (STDs). The responsible lady (prostitute’s friend) had to go learn some skills (sewing) just to feed herself and her family.

7 years later, the responsible girl now own her shop where she is able to render her services to different customers in her environment and she became the most popular and mostly used tailor in her vicinity. She was also able to make cool amount of money on any cloth she sew. She later thought of expanding her business by developing different branches at different location which made her to employ young ladies by training them with the required skills needed to be a very good tailor. She also employs her students automatically if they can’t seem to establish themselves and she also pays them very cool for their services. In short, this lady we are talking about is now a big girl with lot of money.

Bad Market For The Prostitute

As for her friend who happens to be a prostitute, she later ended up loosing customers due to her loss of beauty, body and curves. She actually doesn’t seem to attract any guy or men because no man will want to do an old ugly prostitute even though she was still at her early age but her immoral activities actually defamed her body structure and beauty making her to look like an old woman.

I will love to end the story here and let’s see some important lessons I learnt from this great story I adopted.

LESSONS

The first lesson learnt is that both ladies actually made use of what they have to get what they want even though they actually did it in a different way. The prostitute was actually looking for easy and fast money which led her to keep selling her precious body to different men while the other lady took time to learn some important skills which later turn out a huge success for her.

The second lesson is to always give it what it takes to achieve great things even though you have to go extra miles to get what you want, just always make sure you don’t give up on anything you do just like the responsible tailor never gave up on her dreams since she knew the benefit in it.

The third lesson learnt is to always surround yourself with positive minded people who have great ambition(s) in life. I hope you read the part when the tailor asked the prostitute about the type of job she can be doing just to earn some amount of money but the prostitute actually gave her a very deadly advice if not for the high level of responsibility of the tailor who had decided not to sell her body to men.

The fourth lesson is to always try to create or develop other people just like the tailor did by employing other young ladies who had interest in her job. She was able to build more young ladies who were also willing to help assist her in anything she does due to the great impact she had added to their lives.

Lastly, don’t be deceived by your friend’s success. I think the tailor had to go meet that prostitute for advice because she was actually deceived by what the prostitute was wearing, eating, drinking, etc. In short she got deceived by the prostitute luxurious lifestyle and this actually prompted her to ask her how she could also start making money. I always believe life is like an examination field where some people will fail just by imitating others but thank God the tailor never imitated the prostitute in her immoral activities though and the tailor was also able to achieve more fortunes than the prostitute.

Thanks for your time and i hope you actually found this helpful. Feel free to make comments on your view or insights about this and let's all learn from you.
