Understanding Life is key

understand your life is a gateway to good life

Resist the urge to create unnecessary needs in your life.

When growing up in the village

You’ve been misled to believe you require things that are not valuable to you.

It would be best if you desired an understanding of life to live a fulfilling life.

Just after the conclusion of the Paris Olympics in 2024, what appeared unfortunate was Eliud Kipchoge failing to finish the marathon. Immediately, he stopped at about 20km into the race, there were several media people right with him to get his reaction.  This attracted diverse comments, and some even went ahead and criticised him for not finishing the race.

Here, we are talking about the greatest marathoner and the first man to complete a marathon in under 2 hours. You would argue that everyone is entitled to their opinion in a world with freedom of expression, but the most important ones are always yours. What stood out from Eliud Kipchoge and confirmed further that he is a legend is his response despite failing to complete the Paris Olympic marathon. He was very grateful to all his supporters and understood that such incidents are not unusual in competition and looks forward to other experiences in the field. His issue is not whether he failed to finish the marathon but that you must understand the sport.

Even at his “lowest” in the eyes of others, he still delivered a powerful lesson that define success.

Understanding that other people's views mean nothing when you have an understanding of your experience in life

Every experience offers a valuable lesson about life

Don’t just wait to be celebrated, but understand life

Be grateful always
