PASSION FOR LIFE

I just experienced my first Go Kart Ride. For someone who doesn't know how to drive, its an adrenaline rush.

Two basics in Go Karts: Accelerate and Brake. You can either go full speed or full stop. But a skillful mix of both will give you the speed you desire and the control that you need. How do I relate this to my own life? For most of the time, I want people around me to improve. I want them to accelerate to meet my expectations. I become impatient. I realize that it should be a mix of expecting them to improve, but at the same time giving them time to brake for learning.

I also get impatient with myself. I want to achieve so many things all at the same time. I want fast results. But the faster I go, the faster I get lost and out of track. I also need to decrease some speed to be able to handle the sharp curves and turns of life. Otherwise I'll just crash on the sidelines.
