Not Wanting Onto Yourself

So, the last three hours have been unbelievable for me, and I think I’m still reeling from the emotions I’m feeling inside. I’m thankful, at the very least, for the gift of sleep. That I can sleep, forget my worries, or lack thereof, and just wake up refreshed, and ready to tackle whatever issue there is. But only after I’ve slept.

This year has been very enlightening for me, and one of my resolutions for the new year is to ensure I carry the lessons I learnt from this year into next year. That I keep them close to my heart, and not depart from them. No matter what. Aside the plethora of lessons I’ve learnt, I picked up one thing that I hope to build in, even in the new year.

And that is, WISDOM.

It was such an invigorating moment for me when I found out that a lot of things we go through, the events and occurrences we find ourselves in, as well as the things that befall us, are all a result of our level of wisdom. You do your analytics after a failed trade, backtest, and all of that, and in your wisdom, you decide to enter the next trade, and it pans out to the level of wisdom you consulted while placing that trade. Which is a win. Or not.

On the flip side, you eavesdrop on a conversation and hear someone saying malicious things about you. It is your level of wisdom that will determine how you respond to a situation like that. Would it be wise to jump on the person and grab them by the hair? Would it be wise to interrupt the conversation and vindicate yourself? Would it be wise to make a recording? Whatever you eventually decide, the results, all things being equal, will match the decision you took based on your level of wisdom and understanding.

I’ve seen things this year that left me quite literally slack-jawed, and while I cannot go into them since they’re quite a lot, you will agree with me that a lot of things that happened to you this year, you chided or pat yourself on the back based on how it turned out, and probably made a decision to continue or not continue on that path.

I hope this is not beginning to feel like too much of rocket science or anything. I’m basically saying read more books, experience more things, build your faith more, possibly. Do all you can to get wisdom. Do all you can, so that when it matters, you won’t be found wanting onto yourself. That you’ll know what to say, what to do, even how to think, and make your life a product of good thinking and even better understanding.

Anyway, my eyes are hurting from being on screens the whole of today. So, I’ll be going to bed now. It’ll be nearly midnight when I post this, so I hope someone reads this and gets the message, or not. My writing, as always, is one of my means of showing accountability to myself.

Have a nice day ahead, everyone.
Stay positive and happy. You owe it to yourself.
