Sometimes You Need To Lose To Gain

Sometimes You Need To Lose To Gain

Of course, we're all afraid to lose something OR someone we now have.  That's just human nature.  But when reality kicks in, you may be constrained to take a REALITY CHECK and figure out that Sometimes You Need To Lose To Gain.  Let's look at tear-jerking stories.  You would grow to become a young adult in the comfort of your home with the dutiful guidance of your doting parents.  Then one day, you need to enroll to a university at the BIG CITY.  Before you know it, rivers of tears will be flooding between mom and daughter and what happens next is anybody's guess💎💎💎

A more unfortunate and sad story are those whose homes get burned into ashes, leaving nothing left to the hapless occupants of that home.  THAT's when you pick up the pieces from the very rubble.  THAT's when you get into realizations.  THAT's when you start to value and cherish things ten times fold compared to those care free times when all you need to do is go to the shopping mall, then voila, you got what you want.  Another common sad story is when suddenly you're jobless, out there in the cold, totally caught unguarded by the turn of unfortunate events, which normally has its financial implications⏳⏳⏳

To share some of my bitter-sweet past, WHEN my aunt [who financially supported me in my early years] died, I felt helpless.  BUT what happened next, I realized that I CAN'T sulk in a corner.  I gotta pick up the pieces.  WHEN my company executed a massive global reorganization, I was one of those given that pink slip. HOW did I take it?  I welcomed that development because besides the 'golden handshake', I told myself, this gives me the chance to move-up the goal post⏳⏳⏳

A common debacle is when you are holding n to things that, in the end, are holding you back.  When things AREN'T adding up in your life, begin subtracting because life gets a lot simpler when you CLEAR THE CLUTTER that makes things complicated.  BTW, NOT EVERYTHING and EVERYONE YOU LOSE IS A LOSS📌📌📌

A more petty incident is when you get mulcted with a tidy sum of monies.  That hits us hard, definitely.  BUT when you wake up next morning, that should positively change you to be MORE vigilant, MORE wary, MORE watchful, MORE incisive.  We may NOT agree to this hard reality but this is nothing less than gospel truth.  WHEN we get hit hard, we would realize that SOMETIMES WE NEED TO LOSE TO GAIN✅✅✅
