Assalamualaikum and hello to my #hive family. I hope you people are having a good day. I am also doing pretty well. Holy month of Muslims, Ramadan is going on pretty nicely. We are enjoying every moment of this sacred month and try to spend most of our time in worship of ALLAH.
Today's topic is an essence of my whole life. I am sharing lessons that I learned from my life so far. I am about 36 and here I am sharing my life experience of these 36 years. What I learned? What should be done better in the past? What mistakes I made? What could I do better in these 36 years? What foolish things I did in the past? Where my predictions and guesses went completely wrong? What I learned from so called friends? How I spoiled my money? How people reacted with me in my bad times??? Lots of questions would be answered in this blog.
Look I am unfolding some bitter realities of life. When I was young and I was in school our teacher sir Tariq Iqbal Khan used to say "Son, practical life is very difficult". We used to laugh at this sentence and say that we are strong enough that we will tackle all the problems. Life would not be as difficult as he said. But when we came in practical life we realised , he was right. Practical life is a completely different and difficult life than student life.
What I learned from Life So Far?
I learned some interesting things from life. I want to share my experience with you guys, so that you may learn from my experience. And you don't repeat mistakes that I made in the past. I was a person who trust people very quickly and it cost me lots of loss. My experience in making friends was also very devastating. My friends who pretend to be sincere
with me, they backbited me every time . It hurt me a lot. So I will suggest you don't waste your time surrounded with fake friends. I am not saying don't make friends. Quality friends are necessary in life. But fake friends would harm you and you will be disappointed in the end.
I always helped my friends and relatives in bad times. But when bad time came on me , most of them were vanished. No one was there to help me. It was another bitter fact. Few days ago I went through operation of my wife. I remained in hospital with my wife for few days. Most of my friends and relatives were aware that I am in hospital but they didn't bother even to contact with you.
Another foolish thing that I did in the past and you should not do is always remained "yes man". I was always available for people, that's why I my value was less. I myself decreased my importance by presenting myself all the time for even ordinary people. Don't be yes men. Learn to say no. Don't be available for everyone.
Another thing that I learned is self respect. I had not given myself so much importance. That's why people also did not give me importance. When I started giving value to myself, people started giving importance to me. So don't underestimate yourself. Don't be pessimistic about yourself. Trust your abilities and respect yourself.
I used to make decisions very early and in anger and sentiment. That's why Most of my decisions were completely wrong. I learned a lesson that we should not make any decision in a state of anger or ina state of happiness. Always make decisions when you are cool, calm and composed. If you want to make wise decisions, make decisions in calmness and take your time.
I used to care people. I used to try to please them all the time. Later on I realized that I cannot please them in any cost. I have to act fairly with people and then don't care about them what they are saying about me. That gave me lots of inner peace and my life became very better by doing this act.
The important thing of life is health and I ignored health in my past. Amd that was a biggest mistake of myself. I took lots of stress in little things. I gave importance to ordinary people and worried about them. That affected my health.
Now I understand health is the most important thing in our life. And I am focusing on my health.
So the conclusion of the blog is that life teaches us in good and bad times. We should learn from our mistakes and should not repeat mistakes. Every mistake and every challenge help is in our growth. So always try to learn from life bitter as well as good experiences.
