I have come full circle. After recently quitting a job that almost ruined myself, I took time off to seriously look at my journey so far and to set my compass again for my next lap of my life.
As far as I can remember, there had been three turning points in my life:
- When my dad died when I was 10 yrs old
- When I was arrested for stealing
- When I was first fired from a job I held dearly
Each of these points I felt like to wanted to to give up and end my life. However I never did. Why? My Basic instinct kicked in and I continued to face my music and turn my adversity into success. What was that BASIC?
The need to live...to survive
My mind did not allow me to end my life; difficult and tough as it is, I had to endure the issues and problems and find solutions to triumph over the challenges. At each turning point, I grew stronger. Now I looked back and realised that who and want I am today was because I stuck to the basics. Building on the fundamentals on a consistent basis gave me success. This is what this blog is about.
The Basics...in everything and it all starts with our need to survive.
We do not have to go far, search high and wide - the wisdom and knowledge is everywhere. All we have to do is see better. I saw better and continue to see even better.
I hope you will benefit from my experiences.
with gratitude,
bruce
