Experience lived is value gained

Everyone is constantly on a journey of some sort or other in the ultimate journey of life.

Those journeys of self fulfilment and development are entirely controlled by you ; up to a point and then external factors come in to scope.

For example your ambition is yours to define as is your plan to achieve that. To get there however whether in business or personal terms relies on the will of others.

After all to get that promotion requires you to convince and impress the influencer who can make that happen for you. This is the pattern with most things.

What people tend to do sometimes is to look at those already in the position they aspire to. Of course they only see the pinnacle of a journey which may have been long and arduous.

They do not see the experience that built the individual on their way up. The stains and scratches which they took on, integrated and turned into positive outputs.

It is for this reason you need to be prepared to take on new experiences. You cannot pick and choose if you don't like them. You have to take them and then decide how best to tackle.

Sound daunting ? It shouldn't for an experience lived is a value gained!
