You win some and learn some

Everyday I learn something new and forget something worth forgetting

The most important things I try and remember but most the time I need to be reminded. Steemit has reminded me to pay attention to detail when it matters and I have learned some very difficult lessons. My business in reality is finance and I am also reminded of this lesson quite often, I deal in income tax and real estate and I admit to trying to cut corners to save time but I still pay attention to the details to make sure my clients are getting what they pay for and getting what they want.
Some of the most important lessons I have learned in my life have been lessons that cost me the most. Financial losses, relationship losses, and missed opportunities were almost all caused by not paying attention to details. I learn new things from people around me here on Steemit and try not to make the same mistakes over and over, I also try to watch and learn from people to avoid looking really dumb and feeling even dumber, If something doesn't work I would like to know about it before I make the mistake of trying and learning the hard way.


My wife and I sat in the car and watched this guy struggle to put a 55 inch screen in the box into this tiny car and I knew the outcome from the start. I watched him walk to this tiny car with a big old grin on my face and I told my wife that his smile would be turned into something totally different if he doesn't have some cord to tie this thing to the top. We watched him struggle for 15 minutes before I finally got out and helped him tie it to the top with rope I had in the trunk.

There are people trying to stuff tv's in the back of small cars here on steemit and there are guys like me with rope that are ready and willing to save you the trouble of trying to stuff this tv in the car when it's quite clear it's not gonna fit. The whole time this guy is trying to tell himself he will get it to fit, and it didn't happen.


There are lessons in life that by working them the hard way will teach us invaluable lessons, than there are the lessons we learn that are a total waste of time. Differentiating between the two different situations is the important aspect in learning that I would like to dial in. If someone is watching me struggle I would like to be told the error in my way just the same as when I see someone struggling I want to help. I may watch and take photos for the first 15 minutes to add some fun to my life, but eventually I am going to say something to make your life easier and hopefully you will be open to the help. Thanks for your support and engagement!
