Rebounce

There is one pattern that I see that flows across life; zigging and zagging. Those in the financial markets will understand more about this. Yes, arrows turn red and later bounce back to green and your chances of success depends on how long you can hang in there. It is not always an easy one anyway, when you see your $1000 dollars slashed into half, ok, that's the most I take and off you go pulling out to salvage the situation. How does it always end? Green light shows up later leaving you alarmed, oh! I should have stayed just one more week.

Easier said than done anyway. Ok, so today we won't be centering much on the financial market but the general space. Life is full of ups and downs. Today may seem joyous and tomorrow may take away ALL the smiles. One thing you have to admit, people smile and cry everyday. One gets a wedding ring, another gets a divorce letter. One is happy a child has been put to birth another is mourning the loss of a loved one. One just got a new job, another received a sack later. It goes on and on.

Why am I saying all this? I am trying to fine tune you to life possibilities and in the midst of it, you have a choice, either to swing the direction of an ongoing inconvenience or develop a tough skin and scale through. The moment you hit the dashboard of understanding, there are so many things you no longer kill yourself for.

The truth is always bitter, yet this fact remains, loss is inevitable. First you have to understand the world current system, people fade away. So I can say you can't avoid losing a loved one either by old age or an unexpected situation. I happened to attend such an occasion late last year. It was a burial ceremony of a woman. On reaching the burial ground, the wailing was unending. We were a little surprised by such a level of outcry. We felt we had branched the wrong burial ground.

We had to confirm again who died and the reply was an aged ninety years. The grandchildren were missing her already even at such an old age. It was funny to us anyway, I couldn't just hold in it but laugh a little. Such is life, nevertheless, the trick of survival is turning to something that can replace your downtime. Every man's solution is always at the corner if only he is willing to look. A friend can sparkle back your life, a brother can, a wife can, a husband and so also a neighbor. It's all about giving yourself a resisting time during pressure.

We have been there, they are times business seems as if you are just joking. The bills keep coming in, the pressure becomes high and in such intense heat, you are likely to embrace old attitudes. Yes, I must say, there are things I have promised myself not to go back to even at any intense pressure. To put it out straight, there were times I use to love gambling. It was where my hopes were based. One day I will just hit the jackpot and blow. One day never came and even if it did, I am sure it wouldn't have been any better. A gambler is likely to lose all later.

So I decided to quit and focus on building a business. So what do you do when it seems business is not working well?. You might be tempted to TRY some luck, who knows according to the gambler's ways. "You only know you are a man of your words when your words hit you"---Dani-EL. So I told myself, we are dead to this, if business will crumble in the process so be it. This is when you will learn new ways to solve a pending problem. Did debt swallow me, of course not. I am gradually climbing out.

To conclude, let me add, life is a lesson. There are days and seasons that it seems things are not just working out. It takes understanding to stand. Just as the financial market zigs and zags, so is life. You are not bound to be frustrated or depressed forever. Just have it at the back of your mind, it will phase off. And indeed just as the preacher said, 'there is a time for everything'.
