When Are You in a 'FREE FALL'

When Are You in a 'FREE FALL'

When Are You in a 'FREE FALL' ?  This question has hardly stomped anyone because it sounds so mundane, just like a speck of dust scattered all over the place but when you pick it up, it's so intangible either.  Yet, the crux of the matter is that, like it or not, we must be sharp enough to detect and realize when we are in a 'FREE FALL'.  Failing which, God knows the impact that reverberates, all because of gravity.

Why do we need to detect that we're in a 'FREE FALL'? Simple, when that 'FREE FALL' ends, we will be 'dead in the waters'.  And what does that mean?  That at that point, you have ran out kaput with just nothing else to turn things around.  That would be the last straw on the camel's back, the last nail on the coffin.  Whereas, if we are aware as to when we are in a 'FREE FALL', that gives us time, it buys us time to take a one last shot even that is a longshot to turn things around.

And BTW, the real life 'FREE FALL' is not akin to the 'FREE FALL' of the skydivers equipped with all the safety gears.  In our real life 'FREE FALL', we are bare and unshielded, equipped with nothing except our bare hands.  Tricks to figure out if you're on a 'FREE FALL'?  Failing marks in school are proliferating.  Or even if something's trending when you start to drop and skip classes.  At work, you can be culpable of one miscue to the next miscue.  In a relationship, a friction worsens into a spat till ending up with everyone screaming their lungs out [until the big quarrels repeat over and over again].  For entrepreneurs, your dwindling coffers is the best barometer that you're in a 'FREE FALL'.

In Finance and Economics, when the experts see the country's currency in a 'FREE FALL', the next immediate thing the economic honchos will do is to take DRASTIC actions to stop whatever 'hemorrhage' because any action that will be less than DRASTIC will be an exercise in futility. BTW if you want a synonym for 'FREE FALL' alerts, they are a.k.a. 'WAKEUP CALL' because those are the times when you need to wake yourself up because things have gone from bad to worse.

Instead, what should be our mantra in life?  It is to reverse that 'FREE FALL' because there should only be one end-result.  That is, to go against the law of gravity and take off for us to reach the next level in life,  To hurdle any of those turbulences out there and more importantly, to survive the most difficult grinds in life.  Next time we are on a 'FREE FALL', it should be because we are like those skydivers who are in CONTROL of their LIVES, at least for those moments 📌📌📌
