Philosophy of life

^{edited on canva}

Hello there and welcome 🤗 to my blog today I will be taking part in a contest organised by @msharif with the theme "Philosophy of life" so I urge you all to take your time read and enjoy.

WHAT IS YOUR LIFE PHILOSOPHY? WHAT DO YOU VALUE MOST IN LIFE?

Life is a race which at some point makes a lot of people to wonder what are we racing for, how did this race even start and to where are we racing 🏎️ to, but it is normal because this our some questions we've been asking ourselves right from day one.

But if you ask me what my own philosophy of life is I would say that life is a journey filled with lots of challenges and ups and downs which so many people believes that money is everything meanwhile to me money isn't everything rather life is all about mutual respect that is why even in the bible the first commandments given to us by God is Honour, respect & obedience (children obey your father and mother for this is the commandment that comes with a reward).

I believe in treating the people around me with respect disregarding their academic attainment, qualifications, status etc respect has to be earn there say and you can only earn yourself respect by respecting others first.

I also believe in time since time is the most valuable asset on earth which once it's gone it can never be regained so I'd always try to make the best out of my time and try not to waste it

And most importantly I also believe in happiness despite the life struggles that we face we should always try to be happy by spending time with family and friends and I believe in optimism also having and maintaining a positive mindset

HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT OR DONE SOMETHING OUTSIDE OF WHAT EVERYONE ELSE DOES IN THIS LIFE? IF SO, WHAT WAS IT AND WHY? AND IF THERE IS A PLAN TO DO IN THE FUTURE THEN WHAT IS IT?

Yes absolutely, I have done some things which to some people seems insane and outrageous it all started 4 years ago after I'd finished secondary school a lot of people were always afraid of working as a cashier in a bet shop.

Maybe because almost all the cashier's always end up being arrested for some reason or the other but I'd challenge myself that I will become a cashier in a bet shop and I will work and I will gain from it, a lot of people in our community thought I was insane and some of them advice me to back down from it saying that it doesn't end well.

But I pushed through the fears and negativity and started the job as I was employed and indeed many people were surprised because I have worked for so many months without having a problem and even as I'm talking to you I'm now a manager.

And when talking of future plans I intend to be financially stable and able to take good care of myself and I intend to major in something most people will never want to try and that is to grow up and become a professional Forex trader.

Which from that I wouldn't have to work for anyone rather I would be my own boss and in control 🎛️ of my income so that I will have the freedom that I deserve because I'm a traveler I really love to travel 🧳 and there are so many great places I would certainly love to visit

DO YOU WANT PEOPLE TO REMEMBER YOU EVEN AFTER YOUR DEATH? WHAT DO YOU DO FOR THIS IF YOU WANT?

Yes I really do want to leave behind a lasting name which everyone will remember even after I'm gone most people believe that a man must move mountains and drain oceans before his name would be remembered.

But it's absolutely wrong as the little kindness, love and care you show others can carve your name in their hearts forever and for me what I'm doing so as to be remembered are.

Well I have made it my business to discover new things and I have become a restless researcher searching for new things so as to share my knowledge with others and also to always lend a helping hand to those around me that are in need.

You don't need to be a millionaire to be able to change the world all you need to do is to show a little kindness and always put on a little smile 😊
