If you have to aim high all the time, in all you do and want, but have no consideration at all about the relevance of your readiness to make the transition, you’ll soon run out of targets to aim at and achieve. We all are familiar with the saying “you can’t walk before you crawl” or “you can’t sprint before you run”, and all these pointing to the need to master some basic and foundational know-how, before you can expect to make some advancement in life. You and I have witnessed this clearly in others, even though we may not be aware of our own experiences of it.

 

It's common practice for most to overlook their readiness to advance to a greater level of the experience of life, and for that end up not doing well to achieve the success they want. This is just as a little kid may decide to walk, or even run, on their first success at standing upright, which we all know can be catastrophic. Fortunately, for little kids the desire to get up from a stumble and try again is hugely irresistible, because of the excitement of a new discovery that lets them stand and move around quicker than when crawling. For an adult person though, like you and me, at which level we have a thing called Ego, we often crumble after a stumble, and rarely manage to get up and try again.

 

Clearly, to learn and master the basic and foundational skills of mobility is the most critical step any growing kid must undertake, if they are to ready themselves for the next level of an advanced stage of human life. Bear in mind that such skills of mobility, once attained, become a life-long necessity, and are not only relevant during the early stages of child growth. The same is true for the basic lessons we get exposed to at an early stage of our lives, particularly at schools.

 

One of the greater challenges that faces human development, and specifically at the individual level, is that when it comes to the system of education, we tend to overly lean on modern and sophisticated ways. Then when you get stuck the tendency is to also seek for quick and sophisticated solutions, rather than getting back to basics and try over again, like in the case of a little kid stumbling. This inability to see a connection between early life lessons, which essentially provide a foundation to any future success, is the cause of much lack in advancement, in the lives of many.

 

Maybe you’re one of those who has been aiming high and hoping to yield greatly from your higher educational qualifications, for example, but you’ve since missed most of your targets. If you are wondering how exactly you can fall-back on your early educational lessons to give your life a breakthrough in advancement, Episode 12 of the Restructure Your Life Podcast is the greatest reminder you need to hear.
