Law-abiding III
Have you seen an old building that still looks new and well-kept? There is a secret behind the looks. It is the concept of maintenance that keeps the building up to date.
A building you want to keep in top shape must comply with the maintenance law; otherwise, the glory, beauty, and strength will gradually fade away. Of course, it is optional, but it is a distinguishing factor between those willing to pay the price and those not willing to put in the extra effort.
It explains the law that very few people choose to obey. It is a choice to do maintenance on yourself to enhance and develop your potential. It is possible to live without doing anything, just like a completed building, but it will gradually fade and decay. The wood may need polishing, wall painting, some materials updated, and some preventive maintenance. Some parts may need changing or cleaning to ensure the building is in good condition and best quality.
“You can be the best today, but to remain the best you can be, you need to work on yourself to enhance your potential.”
You will not get arrested for it. You will not get a fine for it, but your life will reflect its absence. You can be the best today, but to remain the best you can be, you need to work on yourself to enhance your potential.
The choice of what to do differs from one person to another, but the idea is to refresh, enhance, improve, make better and maximise potential.
It is similar to the recommended service by car manufacturers after driving your car for thousands of miles. They change the oil, filter, and plugs. They check the breaks and other systems and replace parts at recommended intervals. It is not compulsory, but there is a noticeable distinction for those who obey the maintenance law.
The same is true in life; some people get up early to work on themselves and create extra time to repair and carry out preventive maintenance. They read, assess, learn, think, and make relevant improvements that will help enhance the quality of their lives.
“If you refuse to work on yourself, you will gradually lose value.”
You may have found that many that do exceptionally well in examinations create extra time to study, practice, and go the extra mile, eventually making a difference.
The musicians that work hard on their skills by practising when it is convenient and when it is not are distinguished because they create time to improve.
I once observed two cars of the same model and by the same manufacturer. Car A was three years older than Car B, but Car A had more value and had a higher price tag than Car B, even though it was older. What is the difference? It is in the law of use and maintenance. If you refuse to work on yourself, you will gradually lose value.
What do you need to do for a better you to emerge?
It could be exercise, practice, self-development, learning something new, regularly refreshing, updating your skills, or eating well, among other things. Create time to do it. Nobody will arrest you if you don’t, but your life will reflect the value of what you have done.
“You are the best police of your life, so you have the power to enforce the law that will make you a better person.”
Some have become wise because they choose to do what the foolish will not do. Some have become rich by doing what the poor will not do.
Many got good grades because they did what those with poor grades would not do.
Anyone can choose to sleep all day or watch movies all night. They will not get arrested for breaking the law, but their result will differ from those that invest their time in improvement.
You are the best police of your life, so you have the power to enforce the law that will make you a better person. You can devote your time, resources, and energy to enhance your potential so that a better you can emerge.
