One step at a time...

Everything in life should be one step at a time. When you take the time to pace yourself, you realize that you are not a super hero! We're humans and we make mistakes! But if we are patient enough, those mistakes will be less catastrophic!

Most people want things now! Time is money, right?! So I can understand how this could influence some people. As humans, we want to see the end result of our work as soon as possible. An instant gratification! I think that everything is possible! However, when you are able to properly analyze a situation because you took the time to organize and examine it before jumping in... In my opinion, you will be more efficient, more effective and more productive than if you were only thinking to get to the end result!

And I believe this is true for everything! Take love for instance. A normal person may start dating during their teens. He/she shouldn't expect to find love immediately! It takes lots of trial & error to find the right person. In fact, some people like to think that it has to do with time. The right person comes along when you are ready for them. In my case, the right person came along when I wasn't ready. My "right guy" needed loads of patience to be able to stay in the relationship while I found myself! Either way, it doesn't matter how exactly you may look at a situation. If you want it done right, you need patience...one step at a time, my friends!


On the other hand, take the economy now! I call it the never ending vicious cycle! It grows, reaches its peak and eventually falls back. Our recession won't go away magically! One step at a time! Obviously, lots of factor are involved: the government should probably start fueling the economy properly. Instead of taking away our jobs and money, they should be doing the exact opposite! How about playing a little with the demand/offer curves? As prices go down, the demand will grow and the economy starts to get better. Simple concept: increase the money supply, lower the interest rates!

If we try hard enough, anything can be controlled! And how could we possibly control everything? Because everything is mental! Think about it for a second! We create almost everything we know! We created math, science, fiction, the economy, we created money! Most of it are just tools used to control our society! Surely there is a way we can use this to our advantage. Moderation and patience are key! 

Ok this is where starts to get crazy: Let's create a loophole, where next time around we focus more on living a happy life and less on controlling the human race. Some may argue such control is a necessary control. I disagree! If it's so necessary, how come we are having so many problems. Nothing is perfect! Everything can be "hacked"!

How about investing more in our children's education? After all, they are our world's future. If we have screwed up so much, the least we can do is help our children! Isn't that what adults work so hard for? Someday our children will have to do the same. Give them the chance of being able to change a world that is not ruined beyond repair!

Sometimes things have to get really bad before they can start to get better. Or else, how would we appreciate them when they are right? And for them to get better, we have to be patient! Never give up on anything, because the more you want something, the more you'll accomplish. Especially if you work... one step at a time...
