Know WHERE to ANCHOR !
Oh, we all know our life is akin to traversing the high seas and me thinks we all know how damn important an anchor is, especially in life. But do we Know WHERE to ANCHOR ! I believe that's the most important question because many of us are all on the same page, being aware that we're all travelling the SEAS of LIFE but I am doubtful that we are all aware up front as to where will we drop our ANCHOR of LIFE. And that will be the scariest harsh reality to be uncorked.So why do we really need to Know WHERE to ANCHOR? Plain and simple. As we embark in our lifetime journey, we need to know NOT just our final destination but even our very 'pit stops'. Remember, you may be running a marathon or triathlon but bottom line is, you need to establish your intermediate stops along the way where you need to refuel, so to speak.If this may become a 'hard sell', I'm more than willing to give my spiel, my pitch. Similar to the F1 races, pit stops are part of the equation. It's an outlier to state that life journeys DON'T NEED lay-overs or pit stops [and if there are non stop flights, those are outliers just like that flight from New York's JFK Airport to Changi, Singapore. Other than that, it is a given that generally in life, way before we can reach our final destination, we need to anchor our boat/ship along the way because lay-overs are a reality in life.In case I don't get yet your BUY-IN for our need to anchor from time to time in life, here's a challenge question. If you are out there in the high seas, when a brewing storm threatens you, shouldn't you have pre-identified where to anchor? Fact is, you just DON'T sail out to the seas without having a contingency plan. And your port to call should be within feasible distance.What happens when life gets messy? When you get hit with a storm in the middle of the high seas? By definition, ANCHOR is defined as a person or feeling one uses to keep his or herself GROUNDED or in a CALM STATE when things hit a rough patch. As the old cliche goes, life is NEVER a WALK in the PARK. Life needs YOU to always plan your life based on tons of WHAT IF scenarios because any of those scenarios may happen, albeit remotely. And if it does, do you know WHERE TO ANCHOR❓❓❓No one size fits all. That explains why we're here, to share my 2-cents where it's worth it.
