Amazing how time flies. The struggles made me into whom I am today, finding myself as days passed.
Entering the working world, a whole new phase, a whole new environment.
Since young, I have always wonder how the adult working world can be so boring - well, I’ve seen how tired my family is when they come back from work. Be it office hours or shift work, you work so hard just to pay off your bills.
Not everyone grow up to be a president or Beyonce. Each and everyone in the world are born differently. I always question myself, “why?”. At the age of 19, you have to choose and decide on your own life. Work or School? Money or Studies? Knowledge or Experience? Aren’t all of them equally needed to enter the real world?
Without money, obviously you can’t survive. But without education, how can you work? The root of everything is knowledge. Knowledge is power, where it should be harvested and cultivated which I believe can be used to change the world.
However, at the same time, how do one work while strengthens their knowledge. Isn’t it tiring? You have to work for about 9 hours and then Study for another few hours in order to gain more knowledge. Personally, I always thought that study comes first as knowledge is the power. However, I was wrong. Power is where knowledge and action comes together, where it is applied in the working world.
Well, you can always study as time goes by. There is no age limit to stop studying right? And in order to survive in this world, money is essential in life. At the age of 15, I have been working to financially support myself for my expenses, in terms of school and personal things. It was definitely challenging to juggle both my studies and work at the same time, setting my priorities right. The time I had was limited and everything was crashing onto me -exams, expenses, projects, etc.
The different experiences I gained over time brings out my confidence to enter the real working world, where I should start to work full time and forget about my studies. At the age of youth, deciding your life and taking a step ahead is one of the hardest things ever!!!
From families, friends, work, money, expenses and study. Which one should I choose? Which should I decide on? Everything is equally important to me but I guess I have to continually jump off cliffs and develop my own wings down the road. The world is just….crazyyyyyy!!!!
I guess I have to welcome my new phase in life now and take my steps slowly to be able to battle my life, in order to triumph over the struggles.
