Simple as that.
I'm leaning towards fully believing that we must all experience some kind of past lives and build on those ones as we meander through our current one, learning as we go.
This time around, I started off thinking I was dumb because I didn't do so well in school.
But, as time went on, I realized that, I was a few steps ahead all the time.
Early adopter of new tech, able to understand complex ideas and, eventually, I realized that I had been "cheating" a lot as it were.
It was just easy to coast through school before I went to university.
Once I got there, it was even easier. The Internet and "pre-packaged" study material and pay sites made cut and pasting references for my papers a breeze.
Shortcuts continued.
And, so did my "felt" mediocrity.
I don't mean monetary mediocrity either.
Just not really finishing anything.
Jumping from one thing to another.
Never feeling satisfied.
Looking for the next thing that would "make me enlightened" lots of money again, etc.
And then, I just stopped.
And slowed right down.
No more skipping steps, trying to go fast, and grabbing that lump of gold at the end of a rainbow.
Now, I just amble along, and stop at certain points, knowing full well I am going to finish ahead of where I started.
I also know that along the way, I will continue to meet lots of new people, influence them in my own way and, it will always end up as a success story, because that, is a perspective.
I'm going to finish spectacularly, even if I end up living in a debris hut because, mastering my mentality and myself, are the biggest goals for me to achieve.
And that means just completing the race.
Ahead of where I started.
And of course, with a few accomplishments that I can smile about along the way.
