Choices You Make....Voice Of Reason

in #freewrite5 years ago (edited)

Hello guys, hope you are all doing great. Well, I am....here we have nice weather today not so hot thankfully. So my dad has been having this talk with me for a while now, you know it get to a certain age in life where you starts making your own decisions and taking responsibility for yourself as an adult. The talk went on and on about how I should make the right decisions and choices and to be patient while aiming for success.

It was however thought provoking for me, well not like I have not heard such words before but the way and manner in which he said those words. Now a days, we youngsters feel too impatient to follow through the right path, we get so carried away by material things, how well our friends are doing by looking at their lives on social media that we soon forget that there is no shortcut to success.

Most are so in a hurry to make it big that they go into illegal things and thereby destroy their lives in the process disappointing the trust placed on them. Due to this impatience, wanting to get to the top with little or no effort the world now is filled with scams and lives that have been or being wasted away due to bad choices made.

That friend you envy so much, who posts different photos with the latest designers clothes, in different amazing places...you know that kind of lifestyle that tempts us and we just want to experience such. Some of these people are just social media pleasers "no offence here", while others actually through hard work made their way day. But wanting that same lifestyle immediately, you make the wrong move.

Well, do not forget when making decisions that "you reap whatsoever you sow", there are consequences for every actions so you should look before you leap. There is no shortcut to success but with patience and hardwork, success is sure.

Let us stay true to ourselves, irrespective whatever comes...the road to success isn't always a smooth one.

Thanks for reading, do have a lovely day!!

Hmm....this is a great post most people need out there before embarking on success journey (legal or illegal)- law of Karma.

I've seen it all right from University days, most of these people earning illegally, always found living an extravagant life which torment life others to join their calibre - oppression.

You've said all dear, everyone would face his or her deed's consequence sooner or later. So one need to be careful in taking steps.
