Enjoy the Sunshine While it Shines

Enjoy the Sunshine While it Shines

We all love and relish sunshine.  Too much in fact so that we get so captivated to the extent that we tend to spend a bigger chunk of our time right there in our cocoon.  But shouldn't we enjoy the sunshine while it shines?  We got to realize that not all countries enjoy their maximum time with the sun shining up there.  And that is where the parallelism between life and the sun's orbit itself because in life, we should not be missing the sunshine itself.

So why do we really need to Enjoy the Sunshine While it Shines [in life] ?  For many reasons we have to.  #1 when everything is going our favor, very likely things will NOT go wrong.  Remember those times in our life when we are in a winning streak.  In school, we're getting high marks quite often.  At work, we're getting commended left and right.

Over in the Nordic countries where sunshine is extremely limited a big chunk of the year, life is very much like the cycles in these countries because there will be periods in our life when there will be rough patches.  But before going through those rough episodes. let's ask ourselves what can we leverage for our lives when everything is running and happening very much to our favor.  

So where and how will we be badly hit when we have those LOST OPPORTUNITIES?  Theories by social scientists have circled on 'REGRET' as the most common offshoot when LOST OPPORTUNITIES rise up. And it's suggested that REGRET gets intensified by perceptions.  And those feelings of regret are more likely elicited by perceptions of LOST OPPORTUNITIES.  We tend to regret outcomes that could have been changed in the past but can no longer be changed and for which people tend to experience low psychological closure.  

Now, how do we avert missing the sunshine, missing opportunities?  #1 STRENGTHEN RELATIONSHIPs.  It's all about engagements and follow-up.  #2  SEEK FEEDBACK and ASK QUESTIONS.  Simply put, you DON'T know what you DON'T know. #3 BE DECISIVE.  Vascillating won't help when in fact you can enjoy the sunshine while it shines✅✅✅
