When Your Life is 'ON THE ROPES'

When Your Life is 'ON THE ROPES'

How often have we experienced this situation of the boxer literally clinging for life while there 'ON THE ROPES' ?  Should not be too often BUT I'm quite sure each of us have been through that 'ON THE ROPES' experience at the very least once in our lives. I myself, been there, done that, endured that.  At least twice in my lifetime, indeed my life was 'ON THE ROPES' and thankfully, I endured and survived both ordeals.

Running away when your life is 'ON THE ROPES'?  No sirs, while running away is akin to dodging a bullet, it's totally different once you're 'ON THE ROPES' because by that time, there's no bullet to dodge because that bullet, astray as it may be, has already pierced through and it's breaking up right where it did hit you.  A gentle reminder to us all, Running away when your life is 'ON THE ROPES' will never extricate you.

Clearly enough, in case your life is not yet 'ON THE ROPES', yesireee ESCAPING from SURVIVAL MODE is doable but let us just NOT NOT NOT mix this up once your life is 'ON THE ROPES'.  Once you're in that 'deep s__t', things are about to snap off and you got to summon anything left yet in your tank [and that includes your will power].  Too bad, we have heard numerous 'horror stories' when that person deep down in that pit just threw up the towel.

Indeed, having your life 'ON THE ROPES' will need everything in you to do a balancing act no less.  And that's the biggest challenge 'coz it means more often, you are left with options that are similar in terms of upsides [and even downsides].

Bottomline is, we don't need to reach this far when our life is literally teetering 'ON THE ROPES'.  When and where are able to prioritize things in life, it will be very rare your life will be 'ON THE ROPES' because planning and prioritizing your life down to the last detail  and even doing a 'balancing act' between work and life will lead you to a more orchestrated approach in running your life.  Heard of folks with topsy-turvy priorities, if at all ?  Heard of folks, when you asked WHAT's YOUR TOP PRIORITY, he will retort that he's awaiting for 'updates' from the friend of a friend of a friend', whew.

Fast forward to today as we speak.  Everyone's life is indeed 'ON THE ROPES' all because of this covid pandemic.  Just never be complacent.  In case you and your family have not been hit yet by this covid virus, let's be thankful but on the same breadth, remain as WATCHFUL and as CAUTIOUS [and it's fine to be paranoid] because only GOD knows what's in store for us.  GOD BLESS US all while our lives now are 'ON THE ROPES'✅✅✅
