When it Becomes a Turning Point
We all live in a fast lane. The pace of life more often goes in a frenetic pace, beyond our capacity to be in cadence. But that should NOT be an excuse. It is imperative that we're in cadence every step along the way. Imagine the ramifications if you are at least a step behind ? A step behind means, inside out, that you'll be literally a step behind in any of your endeavors. And when you're a step behind, you will end up no different from a snail or a slug, a loafer 'EATING THE DUST' if you're a 'CELLAR DWELLER'.Gotta realize though that our life story is much akin to the typical 'story arc, it goes through the Ups and Downs and when we got a challenge at hand, that's when things begin to go uphill but it won't be that way forever because eventually, you would reach that turning point that tells you you're in that precipice of overcoming the hump.To quote this poster: 'JUST LIKE THE OCEAN, LIFE IS A CONSTANT EBB AND FLOW'. But note that when you're seeking the surface of the ocean, and even to the extent of appreciating its beauty, it won't be the same as diving into it. And nothing can prepare you more in life than that experience of stepping into the ocean but this is slightly veering away from our piece today. But as you continue go through the ebb and flow across those sheets of water, you need to recognize the TURNING POINT. That separates the men from the boys. That explains why surfers are surfers. They seem to rule the water but what's their open secret ? It's recognizing the TURNING POINT.If you seem to be lost in the maze of things, let's go back to our literature fundamentals. The TURNING POINT is that climax or point in the story's plot where the narrative goes to its peak or climax. The TURNING POINT are akin to the interstate highways with multiple exits for you to choose. And that's when even the fastest drivers will have to slow down because they DON'T wanna miss out the correct interstate exit, else it will set back his driving by easily another 5 to 10 miles. Back into our lives, why do we need to detect the TURNING POINT ? It's because those are the points in life when and where we need to take and make crucial decisions that will bring us forward or not.
You might be tempted to challenge me now: WHY are we making a fuss of the TURNING POINT ? Simple. We DON'T want to MISS THE BUS. Missing the bus means lost opportunities or missed chances where we would have been in much better shape. Lesson here: be that sharp to detect the TURNING POINT❗❗❗
