When You Get To The Bridge...
You really don't mean to say
"You will cross it", right?,
You must be joking,
When you get to the bridge,
How do you want to cross
When you have not prepared for it?
You don't meet an obstacle
At a time when you least expected
And expect to successfully come over,
You will shake, you will shiver,
And your name, you may not remember,
You will cry an ocean and even a river.
You will groan, as if you have been touched with an ember,
Danger will flash before you like a blinker,
Your very life will spell danger,
You will fall and you will break after you stagger,
Ask those that have been a member,
Of that same killer perspective.
When you become the victim of that saying,
Cry out for help! Call SOS
When you get to the bridge,
I lie not, you may not be able to cross it,
You have to prepare like you are going for war,
You don't prepare for war on the day of battle, do you?
No one prepares for war on the day of battle else defeat is imminent. When a defining moment comes, define the moment, else, the moment will define you.
Thank you for your time.

True...one doesn't prepare for war on the day of battle. That person will just die like a chicken. You don't know how to cross a bridge when you get there; what if there are obstacles waiting at the bridge, how do you do that? Lack of preparation breeds failure and one would suffer.
This is so beautiful, KP 🥰😍
!pimp
You must be killin' it out here!
@princessbusayo just slapped you with 1.000 PIMP, @olawalium.
You earned 1.000 PIMP for the strong hand.
They're getting a workout and slapped 1/2 possible people today.
Read about some PIMP Shit or Look for the PIMP District
Yaaaaaay. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much, KP. You absolutely nailed it... That person would just die like a chicken...would be defeated and beaten to a pulp with zero motivation left. That's how it is.
Good to have you here, sweet KP. Thanks a lot.
When a person works with a sincere heart, the paths open automatically, the only condition is that the intention of the person should be clear and the person should not panic, he should continue to work hard, then success will come within the time. If a person starts fearing life and starts living in anxiety then he will never be successful.
It's a fact that the absence of planning and preparation is the easiest way to failure.
One the other hand, bracing up is the way to winning.
Many desire success and winning
Not many are willing to put in the work needed in the preparation and planning, hence,why many fail.
Bracing up...that's it. The sad thing is, everyone wants success but they don't want to put in the work. It's true, failure is imminent.
And that's the single reason why everything is going downhill in our world of today.
People love success, everyone loves success buy just few persons are willing to put into work what will bring them success.
How then do we intend to succeed?
Except from stealing and entering into cybercrime
Life is really nothing without the works of our hands she the earlier we realise that, the better for us
Absolutely right princess. To fight in the war, you need to prepare a lot. you need to start preparing from day one. Only a true warrior could do that, and on the day of the war, with his all preparation, he will conquer his opponents and will win the war.
The power of planning can never be overemphasized in the art of winning.
It gives confidence to know that you are well braced.
Shielding and armoring against possible challenges, even unforeseen, is the first step in overcoming the challenges.
My take home message is to always brace up.
Kudos .
Planning gives confidence, no doubt...and it gives you options on how to do things in many ways too. Glad you enjoyed this and thanks for being here.
True that, Planning gives you an extra edge on your opponent. It gives you the confidence to win over your opponent. You can plan a whole fight and then you can let your opponent play your game and make him mistake, and that mistake will make you win the battle.
Brace up for the task ahead is definitely what we will do to help us in life.
When life hits us hard and we're braced up to face it, we can try even if we don't get them to a 💯 but then when life hits us when we prepared nothing, a lot of persons will enter depression and even suicide.
Life is nothing without plans worth executing.
Very cool poem, many times things come to us by surprise, it catches us off base in baseball terms, but beyond that we must prepare for everything because in the end in war warned the soldier does not die, great poem my friend.
Absolutely, some things catch us by surprise and the popular quote says when a defining moment comes, we need to learn how to define the moment else the moment will define us. Thank you, my friend.
Certainly that the moment is in our control and not the other way around, great poem as always my friend it is always a great pleasure to read you.
Life is full of surprises and I do personally like surprises, surprises can bring you happiness as well as sorrow. we can enjoy the happy surprises and we can fight the sad surprises and convert them to happy surprises <3
Exactly...
Surprises are bound to happen because we can't see the future but then there are some level of preparedness that we will be and we won't be entirely enveloped by those surprises because we were expecting it not to be easy... Nothing in life comes easy anyway
After reading this, I would like to say that here we are being taught that life is not so easy that we will live peacefully and the fact is that when a person is between the ages of 25 and 30. In the middle of the year, a person only thinks about what to do in life and what to do to be successful. Keep going and nothing comes easy, hard work makes everything easy.
It's still not easy to work hard I guess so it's still true that life isn't easy, hehe.
But then With the right attitude to life and well-defined goals, I believe it makes more sense when we tick the dots of our every move
Actually, this is one of those quotes that don't always sit well with me, lol.
In a way, it propels lack of inquisitiveness and preparedness.
Why not,
"Before you get to the well...."
You really need to be prepared a little bit to be able to conquer whatever that you're embarking on...
Imagine heading to a task without any level of preparedness, you'll be enveloped with whatever you see because your preparation level was low but nevertheless, it's a nice quote I must say
It's a personal opinion of mine and I can't refute the globalisation use of that quote, hehe
Jeez😂😂😂😂😂😂
This must be my very best moment
Seeing this was amazing.
I actually made the comment above without reading your post but just seeing the topic alone because I've reflected on the quote before and seeing that you aligned with my school of thought is really amazing 😂😂😂😂
Honestly, it is for me 😂😊
Unexpected obstacles and challenges can arise at any time. It stresses the significance of being prepared and planning ahead for such situations, It's important to stay adaptable and deal with unexpected challenges as they come, having a well-thought-out plan and the necessary resources in place can greatly increase one's chances of overcoming adversity.
