Lessons in Life..........

From the moment we are born, life starts, opening our eyes to the wonder around us, and feeling the love of a mother, with her arms cradling us.

As we begin to walk, we fall a number of times, then eventually stand and walk. If a parent did not allow you to fall, then how would you learn the skills to walk. So the child keeps trying determined to walk.

Every step of life is challenging us .When we study at school, our thought process is in succeeding, if we fail a test we try again determined to be proud of our achievements, not just for ourselves but for our parents as well. This continues through many years into University level, until finally graduating and starting the career, you wanted.

Then there are those, who may start at the base of the ladder in their careers , working tirelessly to gain recognition for their work . Their effort and unstoppable spirit , keeps them focused on their goals and vision of where they see themselves . Always determined to succeed.

Then relationships is another challenge for us, we all need love for our emotional well being. Sometimes we break up, feel the pain, but we move into another relationship and feel the love once again. Unfortunately we cannot control another individual ,so if a door closes allow that to happen, another will open, if you force a door, you are pushing against the flow of your life.

If we all see this life as a bonus, not trying to control what is out of our hands, then the positivity and flow of life will give us what we need. Everything you are is all you need, to succeed. Let your life be a flow on effect to others, empowering and impacting the lives of many, whether with charitable work or mentoring , which of course is giving back. Instead of building a golden cage for ourselves, let us all extend our expertise and leave our footprints in the hearts of many.

Live each day like its your last, set out in the morning to achieve what your vision and goals are. Let us build more leaders, influence, collaborate , network and empower one another to improve not just our lives but others.

So when we finally leave the Earth, which is totally out of our hands and unpredictable, Only God has that answer, let us have impacted upon the lives of many. Make your footprints count as you walk, make your life a full one, not wasted thinking and regretting. The time is now, every second, minute, hour and day counts. Value your life and journey.
