A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON LIFE

Beetle A and Beetle B embarked on a journey in search of a rare plant that a friend had introduced them to. To find it, they needed to fly to a distant place and planned to return with the plant within six hours.

Beetle B suggested they travel together, but Beetle A objected. So, they went their separate ways.

After flying for a while, Beetle A began to run out of energy and decided to take a break. It met some other beetles and got caught up in conversation with its new companions.

Meanwhile, Beetle B took a different approach asking other beetles for help by describing the plant it was seeking. 

With the help of others, Beetle B found the plant and felt an incredible sense of accomplishment.

Beetle B then started its journey back to the colony.

However, Beetle A lost track of time, distracted by its new friends, and completely forgot about its mission. 

When it finally remembered, the search time had run out. Overwhelmed by shame, Beetle A chose not to return to the colony.

Many of us resemble Beetle A in life.

One of my favorite quotes says, “If you want to go fast, go alone; but if you want to go far, go together.”

Surround yourself with people who share your purpose; they’ll make the journey easier.

Time is crucial. It transforms everything for those who use it wisely.

There’s no sense in feeding the ego when we know we’ve strayed or made mistakes.

Don’t be like Beetle A and give up on your life’s path.

There’s always an opportunity to make a U-turn. Embrace it and redefine your life whenever you feel the need to change course.

You are the project manager of your own life. What matters is getting it right, no matter how many attempts it takes.

Where there’s life, there’s hope.

Think about it! Take charge!
