Where's the Inflection Point
Here we go again. Everyone agrees that life is never flat, not even like Planet Earth [as some wrongly hypothesized]. On the other hand, while everyone of us know fully well that indeed life is no less than a rough-and-tumble world, what befuddles us is that many of us are not lifting any finger at all on the premise that this is all part of life and there is nothing we can do. But hey, I'll push hard on you to be incisive to figure out as to Where's the Inflection Point.The huge challenge is that point when we hit the crossroads and our upcoming judgment call and decision could be a game-changer and even life-changing. And here's our common pitfall. When we make decisions at an Inflection Point, such decision must be thoroughly assessed, including doing a thorough assessment of the risks because whether you go east-ward or west-ward, likely there is NO perfect option. It all boils down on your judgment call.
The trickiest part is that at that Inflection Point, there is NO helpline, not even your close coterie, not even your cordon sanitaire, if you have one. WHY? Because when you get to that 'Y' road crossing, more often, the two options at hand are almost on the same footing , not offering you a runaway option but instead a close call.
Let's a sampling of nerve-wrenching Inflection Points. If after you graduate from university, there's a Masteral scholarship offer from the U.S. Ivy League. At the same time, here's a Fortune 500 dangling you a carrot, a job offer that's too good to refuse. Your take? It's your take. In relationships, it's an altogether different ballgame. On one hand, you want to pamper and spoil your partner by giving in to his/her whims. Yet, from a practical standpoint, you would ask yourself: Is it prudent?
There you go, folks. We cannot look far ahead down the road beyond the Inflection Point that is staring right in our face. Point is, whether you take the first option or the second option, DON'T feel bad. Even assuming you end up picking the wrong option, it WON'T be cataclysmic but assuming your call was NOT the best but next time around, your better judgment is what you need to take you to the next level❗❗❗
