Life is a continuous learning experience. Throughout our lives, we keep rising and falling, picking up Important lessons along the way. Most people would say that there are some lessons that come too late, catching us off-guard and unprepared.
The thing with lessons is that they’re learned in retrospect, long after we needed them. The good news, though, is that other people can benefit from our experiences and the lessons we’ve learned.
Here are 6 Important lessons you should learn;
PACE YOURSELF
We need to decide everything, plan out our lives, experience everything, get to the top, find true love, figure out our life’s purpose , and do it all at the same time. Slow down—don’t rush into things. Let your life unfold. Wait a bit to see where it takes you, and take time to weigh your options. Enjoy every bite of food, take time to look around you, let the other person finish their side of the conversation. Allow yourself time to think, to mull a bit.
YOU CAN’T PLEASE EVERYONE
You don’t need everyone to agree with you or even like you. It’s human nature to want to belong, to be liked, respected and valued, but not at the expense of your integrity and happiness. Other people cannot give you the validation you seek. That has to come from inside. Speak up, stick to your guns, assert yourself when you need to, demand respect, stay true to your values.
YOUR HEALTH IS YOUR MOST VALUABLE ASSET
Health is an invaluable treasure—always appreciate, nurture, and protect it. Good health is often wasted on the young before they have a chance to appreciate it for what it’s worth. We tend to take our good health for granted, because it’s just there. We don’t have to worry about it, so we don’t really pay attention to it… until we have to.
YOU DON’T ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU WANT
No matter how carefully you plan and how hard you work, sometimes things just don’t work out the way you want them to… and trust me, that’s okay.
IT’S NOT ALL ABOUT YOU
It’s normal to be intensely aware of everything that’s going on in your own life, but you need to pay as much attention to what’s happening around you, and how things affect other people in the world as you do to your own life. It helps to keep things in perspective.
DON’T TAKE ANYTHING FOR GRANTED
We often don’t appreciate what we have until it’s gone: that includes your health, your family and friends, your job, the money you have or think you will have tomorrow.
BOTTOM LINE
Life can change in an instant. Make sure you appreciate what you have, while you still have it.
