Independence: The Slow Lane

2/11/2019

 
As kids, we're often brought up to be independent. We even get rewarded and praised for doing things by ourselves.

For some things, this is great. Walking, writing, spelling, reading and so on. The basic things that are good to know how to do alone as they will help us continue to grow throughout life.

For other things, it can slow us down. For example, problem solving. We get rewarded for solving problems by ourselves. In school we actually get in trouble if we ask for help on a test. It's called cheating.

Life is not a test and we don't have to do it alone.

The whole notion of having to figure things out on our own and do everything by ourselves just slows us down. There are only so many hours in a day and I hate to break it to you but we don't live forever.

Stick to what you're good at and find people to partner with for the rest.

P.S. Want a wakeup call every day? Install a countdown timer on your phone or computer which shows how much time you're expected to have on this earth based on your age and health. Of coarse with technology and so many things at play, this is not an exact science but it will give you a kick in the butt to get going. Heck maybe you'll invent something for life longevity!
