We all have a wall we're trying to scale, and a ladder placed against it as we climb, rung by rung.
Now, many times we observe others who are not happy when they get to the top, and sometimes we say that's just plain ungrateful.
"Have some gratitude for you've got what others don't!"
Sometimes, we may be guilty of that too, and it's others who reminded us of our ungratefulness.
But what if we are unhappy with what we get, because the ladder is leaning up the wrong wall?
Sometimes we put the ladder there ourselves - our younger selves, one that's more naive.
Other times, our loved ones, or society standards, or peer pressure were those who placed the ladder, set the path, map out the journey for us, and instructed us to follow it. Don't blame them, because they could be just re-prescribing that was prescribed to them.
Regardless, if you know that your ladder is leaning against the wrong wall - a wall where the top is not somewhere you really want to get to - then make a change today. It's better to restart the climb mid way, than be unhappy when you reach the top.
However, if your ladder is already leaning on the right way, good for you! You should now have a renewed vitality to climb faster than before.
So… how about that ladder?
