THE STAGES OF LIFE

*** THE STAGES OF LIFE*** 

There are many stages in a game examples are in Mario and Lugi; 

1. Beginner’s stage 

2. Amateur’s Stage 

3. Professional Stage 

4. Legend Stage etc. 

I want to talk about Four (4) stages of life we live and how we choose to go about it. I will be using a new born baby as an example. A baby stops being a baby when they start walking, I bet you parents can’t beat a crawling baby for their mistakes but when a baby is now walking well some adult senses are in them and at that stage they can be beaten like a baby they are not like the way Yoruba(s) beats kids lolz. 

STAGE ONE: At this stage, a baby is born and all that kids wants to do is to be able to see his/her environment, to see who is looking at them, also the baby wants to feel, touch, hear and master voices. This stage is called SENSING stage. 

SENSING/OBSERVING 

 Paying attention to physical reality, what I see, hear, touch, taste, and smell. I'm concerned with what is actual, present, current, and real. I notice facts and I remember details that are important to me. As adults, in most things we do we ignore this early stage of life and we just jump right straight to what we want to do without sensing or observing. How does one apply SENSING? 

1. Study what you want to do 

2. Understand why you want to do it 

3. Focus on what you want to do 

4. Stay on the best and nothing but the best. 

Example; The first stage of Independency starts from entering Senior Secondary School (High School) because at this point it doesn’t matter if you are to go from home or you leave in the school, what matters is you are the one to pick what department you want (Science, Act, or Commercial) but the mistakes we do is most of us choose wrongly because we do not follow the SENSING rules but we follow friends and if you do that you will end up repeating that class except you really start to think like the person who wants that department. 

Another one is as someone who has money but wants to do a fast moving business which is working for everybody, if you want it to work for you too you must know environment matters because every market has its own customers and like pure water business can’t sell in Banana Island but Eva water will and Eva water won’t sell in Ajegunle but pure water will lolz. 

STAGE TWO: Baby must learn to sit and this only happens after watching and understanding the uses of their bum-bum but a push from the parents is needed and this stage is KNOWING YOUR LIMITS. 

KNOWING YOUR LIMITS

At this stage babies grows tired of been carried while sitting down. Before this stage babies relax when parents are carrying them either while standing or sleeping or sitting, all they want is to feel the touch of whoever is carrying them. This stage, babies always can tell when the person carrying them is not standing and they will start crying and now this position baby holders (whoever is carry a child) will always get tired of carrying so you teach them to sit and trust me they will love to learn to sit. 

As adults, in school or in business you will come to know your limits that not all you can do yourself because you need help to also grow. You cannot just start a business because it’s moving fast even though you are in a location the business can move well. You must first learn the business and be sure you can stand well in it or as a student, you have to know some subjects or classes where others are better than you, you have to seek help otherwise you lose. It’s as simple as that in the stage. 

STAGE THREE: At this stage, babies are curious and they just want to move around and see all for themselves and this stage is REVIEWING 

REVIEWING 

Babies are curious and want to know everything there is to know about life and in the process of walking they first will crawl. Some babies’ tries to walk before crawling and ended up getting themselves injured because they are trying to jump steps and didn’t watch what it takes to walk. 

As young adults/grown-up you have to REVIEW life as you are growing in academics or business, see how you started and where you are now so you can know if you have to add more efforts or if adding more will cripple you. You will only be careless if you don’t check on your growth. 

STAGE FOUR: 

This is the final stage for babies as they get up and walk like an adult. This stage is what I call BOSS MODE BOSS MODE 

At this stage of life for babies they feel like they are grown-ups and yes they are but not 100% because if they try to run or jump up or kick ball as hard as an adult will, they will fall down hard and get injured. Just because you are having good grades in school doesn’t mean you stop studying as much as you do on a normal day, and just because your business is making good turns and money is coming in you then feel you have arrived and nothing can happen. 

If you stop stage three or two or one because you are in stage four, you will come down twice as hard as you were before. You have to invest more and get more focused and spend wisely. 

N.B. Life is like a destination we have to be Listen well to this; You are late and the fastest way is to use the train but you got to the station late and the train is on motion already and you started pursuing thinking you can meet up but instead you will only get yourself weak and tired and you will find yourself sick or too weak to carry on, but if when you saw the train moving you did nothing but stay and review things, you will see that you are already late but you can still make it to your destination by other means like Bike, Uber, or commercial buses. 

Do not be too fast that you are not reviewing other ways to get to your destination because only the patient dog will eat the fattest bone
