Greetings!
Pressure is one thing that can be classified into two, which.are, the good pressure and the bad one. The good pressure to me is that pressure one put on oneself so as to achieve greatness in life.
The above good pressure used to come in the form of mission and vision and it needs proper focus to make this kind of pressure work out for us.
The second kind or type of pressure is the bad one which is not healthy at all and it used to be in the form of threat and this is usually when one is being put under undue pressure maybe by another person.
So, these two types of pressure have summarized what pressure is all about and without wasting much of our time, I would like to delve into the topic of the prompt in the Hive Learners community which is all about, “personal pressure.”
Personal pressure like I said earlier is that pressure that one sets for him or herself, and it used to come in the form of mission and vision which requires being focused and determined to achieve greatness in life.
So, in response to the prompt topic, I would say that, my own personal pressure as I'm writing this write up is that of working smart.
Gone are the days when I used to work hard instead of working smart. Then, I worked from morning to night without achieving much. Although, I used to be proud of myself back then and used to see others as not being serious as I am.
Also, there's nothing much to be said to be my gain in those days and it was too late for me to realize that those my friends who I have been seen as not being too serious are the serious one as they were making it big in their smart field than I who was always working like an elephant and eating like a rat.
However, when I discovered their mode of operation that all they do was working smart, I key into their system, but before then, I asked them if what they were doing was legitimate and in their response, they told me that it was legitimate and that they were not fraudulent in their working smart field and with all the evidences presented to me, I realized that and also confirmed that all they were doing were legitimate.
So, with this, I decided to put myself under the pressure of also working smart instead of working hard. Although, it took me time to be able to get things right as I was told to start from the scratch with series of investment which includes my time, energy and money being invested into me working smart and now, I am happy to tell us that working smart is good and it's now paying me more than working smart.
Thank God my personal pressure is working out well and I'm happy to have put myself under the pressure that's working for me. I would have regretted not putting myself under this pressure, but now I have no regrets as I'm doing fine.
This is my entry to week 210, episode 03 of the weekly Featured contest in the Hive Learners community.
Thanks for reading.
