When we were little we were asked questions like what we
want to be when we grow up and our answers were like doctor, pilot, president,
lawyer, and when we got a bit older we were asked again and our answers were a
little more different from our previous answer, now again, what do u want to be
when you grow up?.
Today I am able to answer this question correctly without
guessing not because I am perfect or because there’s something specially
prepared for me, no, I am able to give a good reasonable answer to this
question without an atom of doubt in my mind because I have made a lot of
mistakes and I have made a lot of wrong decisions, I have been to the wrong
places and I have had a lot of positive and negative experiences, and those
experiences, those decisions, those choices have given me the opportunity and
ability to know what I really want.
Sometimes we have to make mistakes, pick the wrong train and
get stuck somewhere, fall in love, change your mind over and over because nothing
is permanent, make as many mistakes as you can, that way someday when they ask
what you want to be you won’t have to guess because you will know.
If you are driving to a destination for the first time you
will find it difficult to locate the place, you will have to ask around, get
confuse or miss your way perhaps, and it will take a lot of time before you
eventually arrive. But when you travel to the same destination again you will
be able to locate the place without much stress, you can now go without any
help from someone because you have been there before.
You have been there before and you probably failed, you were
afraid but now you are now stronger, better, wiser and smarter, a master of
your own decision, not confused or afraid, and that’s the thing with making
wrong choices.
