PERSPECTIVE

 

Perspective is a matter of knowledge, growth and advancement.

🩸Two people see a piece of clothing material. One person sees it as a finished product to be wrapped around the body, the other sees it as a raw material that will be designed into a fabulous attire.

🩸Two people see a palm fruit. One person throws it into his mouth, eats it and walks away. While the other plants it and gains a whole palm tree, with the plan to process the palm fruits into soap, body cream, drugs and more.

Your perspective determines your drive, your expectations and your commitment.

People cannot grow beyond their perception of what success is about. They can settle for less still believing that they got the best out of life. What you may consider as your starting point may be someone else's peak.

It's all about perspective. And your perspective is formed by what you know.

You should be mindful of the people that rub off on you.

🌻Choose to interact with people who see bigger pictures of what life could offer, especially if that is your desire in life.

🌻Choose to interact with people who can see the future of a raw material, and not take raw materials as finished products.

Most of your differences with people will usually stem from this issue of perspective.

For example,

A doctor who wants to be a neurosurgeon knows that his medical degree is not enough. He will have to take specialized courses and training in the field of neurosurgery. He may end up spending more years than he spent to get his medical degree while pursuing the neurosurgery specialty.

However, those who don't know and understand the process to be a neurosurgeon will tell him that his medical degree is enough to be one. This is because they think that six years or thereabouts in medical school should be enough to learn how to treat every part of the human body.

PERSPECTIVE

Because of how imperative perspective is, you have to be intentional about correct knowledge and exposure.
