To quote Indian Subodh R, Can You 'HOLD YOUR OWN'? Somehow, this question seems as tame as it sounds BUT this question does bite. To HOLD YOUR OWN means the world to us because this question challenges us as to whether we can HOLD YOUR OWN in the midst of all the challenges and tribulations in our lifetime journey, proven NOT to be that easyπππ
This does NOT need any convincing or even nudging. Fact is, to HOLD YOUR OWN means many things and everything in life. It means HOLDING FORT. It means RISING UP [from all the FALLS]. It means GETTING BACK ON-TRACK [after getting off-tracked]. It means picking up the broken pieces all over the floorπππ
I vividly remember, I was safely ensconced in a decently paying job in Singapore when a headhunter literally HEAD-HUNTED me and did prey on me. Long story short, they did prey on me because I surreptitiously accepted their "CAN'T REFUSE" $$$$ offer, only for that employer to literally abandon me 'HIGH and DRY' when the project bidding [where they literally USED my credentials in the BID] failed πππ
Only then I realized [belatedly] that life is no less a TUG-of-WAR as it involves all the PUSH & PULL which results with both WINNERS and VANQUISHED. As an after-thought, I realized that indeed I can HOLD MY OWN once I'm grappling with a crisis whose severity level can't be worst than it is✅✅✅
So what's our insight for today? Regardless of the support structure built around you, it is YOU and YOU YOURSELF you need to summon when you are in the midst of the mother of all crisis. Others may FAIL you BUT you need to be strong and stern enough to tell yourself that regardless of the extent of your personal crisis at hand, it behooves that you HOLD YOUR OWN❗❗❗
