This
rings so true for me when I was a teenager and where I see where many
teenagers and young adults are today in their mind space. When we are
young life is easy and every dream is within your grasp. We challenge
all who try and "talk sense" into our heads.
The idea of health, wealth and the perfect life
partner who will fill our hearts and days with love and an ecstasy of
happiness is our truth! Actually at first this is very attainable and
your one idea of total and absolute success seems real.
Then life happens...we get heart broken by the first
love, we realize the corporate world Is a very morally and personally
challenging place and our parents become ill. The truth is these
experiences and setback in life are very necessary for our future
development and growth, through heart ache we realize what we need out
of life and what kind of person we want to walk life's way with,
disappointments at work mould us into a space in our career that we are
comfortable with without loosing who we are and sick parents humble us
and make us grateful and appreciative of life.
The one idea concept is also dangerous because if
that idea fails what are you going to fall back on? If life has taught
me anything it's t have insurance, security and some kind of back up
plan, we spend so much of our hard earned salary on pension funds,
medical aids, life insurance and other safety investments, why? Because
nothing in life is a guarantee and we need to have plan a, b and c for
if things go wrong like retrenchment, illness and or disability.
To end off I would like to encourage all your adults
to study as hard and as. Much as they can and be hard working, once you
have those two elements covered you can build on that.
Good luck and a happy future to all
