Rambling theories is what I do best, its a daily affair of new theories for me. Picturing real situations and identifying the links to my perception of life. Today it was of two swimmers both aiming for the finish line and had their own different methods of reaching that goal. Swimmer 1 laid flat on his back and floated freely moving his arms with the slightest push and patiently wait till he reaches the finish line. Swimmer 2 one the other hand has prepared in advance, stretching his limbs and diving into the water with strong strokes of arm movements pushing himself forward through the water. Its pretty obvious who reaches the finish line first isn't it. Now think of the finish line as your current life goals and think again, which swimmer you most likely depict. A majority of us picture ourselves as swimmer 2 because with hard work comes rewarding success yes? However this majority of us also fail to realise that we are in fact and undeniably in the position of swimmer 1. Yes we do work hard, but again these things don't come at one full force and boost us all the way to the finish line. It has to be CONSISTENT, consistently pushing your limits just like how swimmer 2 pushes himself forward with continuous strong strokes and not just one stroke. What we're doing right now is working hard then letting it go just like swimmer 1 who pushes himself just slightly and see himself float. Yes you are moving forward but as compare to swimmer 2, you are moving at a much slower pace and eventually reaching your goals much later. It doesn't matter whether you are swimmer 1 or 2 because if you do something be it the least or the most effort, you are moving and you are at least one step closer towards achieving your goals. Unless of course u stop pushing and eventually drown in relation to my swimming theory or in simple words, failure in life.
