This evening, while taking a quick walk, I thought about how many choices one is to make as a man before he spends his last hour.
A thousand, a million, or maybe a billion choices have to be made.
Who knows, we might not even get to make a hundred choices before the inevitable.
However, one thing is for certain, we'll constantly make choices that mirror who we are and also which direction it is we are striving to take to get there. When a man becomes a man, he's never for any reason in a state of no direction.
Be a man of direction
All actions and thoughts are always directed towards the end goal of either making more money, making new friends or having a fulfilled life.
All this can be done without sacrificing one at the expense of another.
Today, the world is turning into an enclosed system where many people don't think they can make necessary changes to their lives unless they think the time or the condition is right for them.
It's like waiting for a tomorrow to come before we make changes today.
I think I have been like this for years to understand that whenever we are always hoping for a change in our life, that's when the condition changes to something worse than before. And the right time never comes.
Making us run in circles of change
There was a time I told a pal about how he could quit all his bad habits. I put it that to put a halt to his habits, he's also going to have to follow another path that will lead to where he wants to go.
In short, he's going to have to make a choice and also make another choice. One is leaving the bad habits path and the second is sticking with the new-found path.
But in reality, neither of these two choices of leaving and sticking is easy because it's like trying to change the operating system of a system. You've got to format the first and also install the second.
However, when it comes to humans, we are unable to let go of the old habits installed inside us. Smh we created a partition that will end up with us having to revisit the habits whenever we can't take it anymore.
Nonetheless, as humans, it's best to build resilience over what is taking hold of us without having to go back to it again. Because we owe it to ourselves to become better rather than stick to our old habits.
But it's all about which choice we are willing to make and what we are willing to lose and gain
Until next time
