We all have our own self worth in our own eyes. We only settle for what we believe is the right price. If we are short changed, there is an undercurrent of unrest. Sometimes though we have to make the wrong compromise so that when an better opportunity comes around, you don't miss, and thus right a wrong. This stems from an innate faith in Karma. What goes around, comes around.
But this compromise, in an elusive attempt at hope, is probably the worst thing we can do. I should know, because I am about to make one. Compromises eat into our self belief and self worth.
Compromises are what keeps the light burning you may say. I ask, at what cost?
We can't have everything at once, unlike what Lenka would like us believe. We will miss out on somethings, lose out a few times, but that is the cost of getting what we want more. You cannot look at the stars and the gentle sunrise and then expect to stay up the entire day. Nor can you hope to see the sun set from a hill top and expect to watch a movie with someone. You may think, if only I managed my time well…
But these are not examples where time management will stand you in good stead. Instead, time management may be the actual culprit who is restricting you from going after what you really want. A compromise is a good start, only if you have a plan. A compromise cannot be the end of a game.
