LEARN, TRY, STAY and CARE
Over the last months, I've learnt many
ideas, principles and strategies to life challenges. I've come across
four simple words that can make living worthwhile.
First, life is worthwhile if you LEARN.
What you don’t know will hurt you. You have to have learning to exist,
let alone succeed. Life is worthwhile if you learn from your
experiences-negative or positive. We learn to do the right by sometimes
doing it wrong. We call that a positive negative. We also learn from
other people's experiences, both positive and negative… learning from
other people experiences and mistakes is valuable information because
we can learn what not to do without the pain of having tired and failed
ourselves.
We learn by what we see, so pay attention. We learn by what we hear, so
be a good listener. Now I do suggest that you should be a selective
listener, don’t just let anybody bump into your mental factory. We
learn from what we read, so learn from any resource; learn from
lectures; learn from songs; learn from sermons; learn from conversation
with people who care. Always keep learning.
Second, life is worthwhile if you TRY.
You can't just learn; now you have to try something to see if you can
do it. Try to make a difference, try to make some progress, try to
learn a new skill, and try to learn a new sport. It doesn’t mean you
can do everything, but there are a lot of things you can do, if you
just try. Try your best. Give it every effort. Why not go all out??
Third, life is worthwhile if you STAY.
You have to stay from the spring until harvest. If you have signed up
for the day or for the game or for a project-see it through. Sometimes
calamity comes and then it is worth wrapping it up. And that’s the end,
but just don’t end in the middle. Maybe on the next project you pass,
but on this one, if you signed up, see it through.
And lastly, life is worthwhile if you CARE.
If you care at all, you will get some results. If you care enough, you
can get incredible results. Care enough to make a difference. Care
enough to start a new enterprise. Care enough to change it all. Care
enough to be the highest producer. Care enough to set some records.
Care enough to win.
LEARN, TRY, STAY and CARE
TO YOUR SUCCESS
