BEST ADVICE EVER RECEIVED || DAY 5 OF 30 DAYS BLOGGING CHALLENGE
Advice is means giving your opinion or recommendations over an issue which can directly affect the life of a person.
I welcome you to another day of the blogging challenge. This time I will by sharing with you the best advice I have ever received.
I must say, I have received tons of advice in my lifetime. Many of them are great advices because of the kind of people around but nevertheless, I will share the ones that I always have kept in mind.
Here is one from my wonderful Mother:

My son, never forget who you are and where you come from
My beautiful mother always tells me this mainly because she doesn't want me to lose the values she had taught me while I was younger. She believe one can lose himself while out there in the midst of different kind of people and can be affected by the pressure the society gives.
Here another advice I had received and that have always kept me moving:

LIFE IS NOT A RACE, WE ALL LIVE IN OUR OWN TIME, NEVER ENVY NOR HATE AS DELAY IS NOT DENIAL
This is one of the best advice ever heard. I can't probably remember who said this to me but if I am to say it would be my lovely mother 😊.
What this quote means is we are all in our own respective journey and not in a race with anybody but with ourselves alone.
The part "We all live in our own time" means you will surely get to meet people who will do better than you even when they are younger than you and has applied little effort to attain their achievements compared to the struggle you have made but we should know that a man can rich at a younger age and die before his old age while some can get rich at older age and live more years still he dies. It simply means we all have our different destinies.
"NEVER ENVY OR HATE": In this part of the quote, it is normal to envy a friend who does better even when applying little effort and I must say this occurs everywhere including on Hive. You will probably get to have friends who will envy/hate you because earn more rewards than they do. All these are normal but I can't hate because of someone's progress, instead I use that time working on myself to be better.
DELAY IS NOT DENIAL: Most times our goals and plans get delayed. When we try so hard to achieve something and it doesn't come in time, we should believe it hasn't come yet because it's not the perfect time to have it.
This makes me presently remember about my course of study. I wrote the exam 3 times and wasn't giving admission without failing the exam. I went for the exam the 4th year and then it clicked, I got that course I have always wanted.
In short, if you really want something, how long can you preserve for it. A goal that takes a long time to achieve is greater than that which came with lesser effort. It is like comparing the time of pregnancy of an elephant to a dog. They both go through the same pregnancy but one takes 2 years in pregnancy before giving birth while the other takes 2 months.
Those are the best advices I have ever received, what is yours? I would love to know 😉🤗

When I meet new people, I often ask where they are from and enjoy when people ask me the same question.
The question usually results in interesting stories. Best yet the question of where a person is from can lead to a discussion of where they are heading.
In recent years, a few people have started pretending that such questions are inappropriate. Most people enjoy talking about their origins. Remembering one's roots is the best way to anchor one's life.
Yeah you are right that few people think that it is inappropriate. Although most do not have a background/origin they are proud of and choses to move on.
That's why there is a quote: "LET GO OF THE PAST AND MAKE A NEW HISTORY FROM TODAY
To me, I feel we might get to need some information from our origin to solve a future problem in a point in time.
Thanks for your contribution. It is very much appreciated.

The first advice from your mum,
This is like the advice of every parents to their children, each time a negative thought pops in my head, I remember those words and call myself to order. It has really been helpful all these years.
There is one advice from my mum that says today's new is tomorrow's old meaning that new things comes out every day, don't kill for what you can't get today because the one for tomorrow is better than today.
Yeah that's true. Today's new is tomorrow's old makes me remember of the days of Symbian phones, Nokia phones, and blackberry that used to be the top of the game before the emergence of android and ios devices. They were the latest and now where are they to be found. Even Microsoft device is nowhere.
Thanks for your contribution. It is well appreciated.
You are welcome
Wow!"today's new is tomorrow's old" I really love this quote, it really works with patience. 🤣😅
That's right
Wow! It's really nice to have someone sit you down and give you a piece of advice most especially from one's parents; the piece of advice will manifest its effect on you when things turn out to be tough. You will flash back remembering🤔,oh! So this is what my adviser was talking about, just like what @jizzyjoe dictated; it made her call herself to order, it will always keep you going on the right track. Thanks for the mention I really appreciate 👍
Ese consejo es ley de viva, mis respetos para tu madre.
That council is Law of Viva, my respects for your mother.
You have received a lot of good advice in your life, your mom seems like a very nice person. We certainly should never lose our values, regardless of the people around us. That is the most important.
Very good advice that your mother gave you, excellent I would say, we should not forget where we came from or our friends who have been supporting us forever.
We should be grateful and understand that money is not everything.
