Keep Moving, Cover Your Tracks

Keep Moving, Cover Your Tracks

Keep Moving, Cover Your Tracks.  Is this worth to be our thread today.  Absolutely, because with social media platforms lording over our daily lives, it seems, unconsciously, our lives become an OPEN BOOK, which BTW is NOT wrong per se except when that 'OPENNESS' does stretch way beyond bounds📌📌📌

As businesses, educational institutions and workplaces are replacing face-to-face interactions and telephone calls that are considered ARCHAIC and time-consuming with texts, emails, online video conferencing and web portals.  As more communications exchanges are digitized, it makes PRIVACY information more vulnerable and susceptible to compromise and data breaches.  Even sensitive information like driver's license, bank account, medical records, social security and our credit card numbers are linked to individuals💎💎💎

Indeed, sensitive personal data should be protected similarly to the safeguarding of computer login credentials.  A recent IT Security report showed that in the United States alone, over 1.4 million people are victims of IDENTIFY THEFT each year and this has been most rampant among students.  And to align us all, IDENTIFY THEFT is defined as when an individual using another person's information to obtain access to credit card facilities or even medical care⏳⏳⏳

What does these all tell us?  We got to COVER OUR TRACKS, especially living in a highly digitized world where footprints are not literal but instead digital.  Although uninhibited social media posts may pose a threat, acquaintances can also use friendly exchanges to steal from unsuspecting targets.  All these does call for vigilance from us all.  Be LESS trusting when handling your personal information✅✅✅

DON'T get us wrong.  We are NOT encouraging people to shut off and just get ensconced in those cavernous caves.  Instead, while we encourage you to healthily interact with your friends, colleagues and even business contacts, be wary and consistently conscious in securing your personal information.  COVER YOUR TRACKS❗❗❗

Keep Moving, Keep Circling

Keep Moving, Keep Circling...

Quick question: Why do we sometimes get stalled and quite stagnant in between stretches of our life?  We could be moneyed, gifted, skilled, employed or well entrenched in our own business but why is it sometimes we would find ourselves either stagnating or seemingly stalled?  At the workplace, you could have all the job security but how often do we hear or perceive some people feeling that they got stuck and nothing is moving an inch forward.  Or even if things are inching and moving, sometimes you feel things are NOT moving.  Why?  Likelihood is we forgot to Keep Moving, Keep Circling

Oh I found this perfect poster as an analogy.  LIFE is LIKE RIDING A BICYCLE. TO KEEP YOUR BALANCE, YOU MUST KEEP MOVING.  Indeed this is the best comparison.  Just like the bicycle, once you stop moving, you would lose your balance and you may even end up right on the ground.  Staying on course can be a challenge when life throws a 'sucker punch' at you.  But we need to shake that off.  How?  DON'T GIVE UP.  Once you quit, it will never be the same.  Whether it is a relationship a job or your life, you are in charge of your choices.  Giving up may enter your mind but FIND A WAY TO KEEP MOVING. 

One more thing.  TAKE ONE DAY AT A TIME.  it can be tough going in this world but the bottom line is NOT to let all these get to you.  Moreover, STAY POSITIVE.  Always remember that the world is NOT your enemy.  To quote Albert Einstein, '"WE ALL NEED TO SEE THE UNIVERSE AS FRIENDLY".  This is the true wisdom from a great man who knew more about the nature of things than most anyone.  

Now, here's a pitfall we often fall into.  We thought we got to be fast paced?  No sir.  GO AT YOUR OWN PACE BUT DON'T STOP MOVING FORWARD.  You may have been beaten down but you are not broken.  Even if you have suffered and lived through a life altering trauma, if you still have a beating heart, and air in your lungs, you can get back on your feet.  

Few remaining things we should not miss out.  Let's remember our life is NOT A RACE.  Even if you do just thing a day, you will reach your goal.  Even making little progress can go a long way.  The key is to STICK with what you started. FIND A WAY TO KEEP MOVING 📌📌📌
