what if you are late.doc

I’m not used to be late

 

But facing failures and seeing unexpected undesirable results sometimes I think that, probably, I might be late in general. Maybe I am late. Or may be I am high-achieving person. Or maybe I have a competitive mind? Or maybe I’m just spending time on jealousy.

 

I want to sort it out

 

Am I a high-achieving person? I think so. All my conscious life I was used to set certain goals and strive to achieve it. Sometimes I could get what I planned to get, sometimes not. This is how it was and how it worked. Your achievements go along with you. They’re like a solar batteries. Solar batteries work as long as the sun shines. So do your achievements. Your achievements help you as long as you are proud of them and appreciate them. I am a high-achieving person. I have my plans, my vision of my future and the results of my certain acts.

 

Do I have a competitive mind? I think I do. Or used to have once. At present I am not as competitive as I was years ago. But was it good or bad I don’t know. The results show that as a whole it was effective. The competitive thinking keeps alert and aware off certain ongoing things of your interest. At certain period of my life I came to understanding the fact that the most of people does not really like competitive people. Maybe it is because they are jealous. Or maybe they are just don’t like this sort of people because the competitive people are thriving and ready to challenges which makes them look desperate in front of others. At some point I started to understand that actually competitive people are not welcome. Some people just want to do what they like. Some people want to live normally as other normal people do without any other challenges. Some people just want to live normally. Therefore, they are not going to tolerate someone’s pathetic statements. Competitive thinking produces competitiveness. The competitiveness is for professionals. But being competitive does not mean to show how you are competitive. Its all about demonstrating your professional skills when they are on demands. When certain audience wants to see your professional skills. Overall, competitiveness relates to professional skills. The competitive thinking is good but it should be limited or at least it should be done wise.

 

Maybe I am spending time on jealousy. I don’t think so. Competitive mind sets people ranking way of thinking when you categories people by your values and priorities. However being jealous is not the matter of competitive mind. It is about envy. Should you be jealous or not is up to you. In the end it is with you, it is in you and it controls you. Jealousy is one of the negative thoughts, which bring people down. Jealousy of the person is usually set by the person’s values, ethics and knowledge. The competitive mind is not the reason for jealousy.

 

Maybe I am still late

 

I don’t know. Maybe the time has passed and I missed my chances. I remember I was given certain chances and I bluntly ignored them. I was given certain advices and I ignored them either. Sometimes I think that maybe I should have used them without ignoring. But chances are just half choices. When you are given certain chance, you are given an opportunity but that opportunity is nothing more that just a half-choice because it is not you choice. It came spontaneously, it just appeared from nowhere. In the end everything depends on what the person wants. His/her choices, his/her wishes and desires, intentions and plans.

 

Maybe the person should not think in this way. Time sets limits and makes sense because it always works against you. Everything is related. There is nothing late and nothing early. You are not late and not early. If you arranged an appointment with someone you set time when you both meet. If you are late for 10 minutes, you are late. However, if the other person is late for 20 minutes then you are early. It is interrelated.      

 

I found out that that if you don’t want to be late do not wait. Don’t wait. Act.

But it took me quite long time to understand it. I could not get it in time. It took time.

It means I lost time. I am late.

 

It really is true. If you don’t want to be late don’t wait. Act.
