LAW OF ELIMINATION

Sometimes life really throws unexpected things at you. It takes you in directions that you never knew you would take. One such example is that of David Harrison. Just like any other family, he wasn’t born with a silver spoon and had to work hard to get where he wanted to be. 

When he was a kid, the one thing that would always bring him joy would be to build his own spaceships with lego. He already knew that he was a problem solver whenever he would play with his legos with his made-up stories. 

If not legos, then he would just build things up with whatever was in the house. He used to be so busy with his little hobby that when he looks back now, he realizes that he always had this business mindset; of building things up. He loved solving puzzles too that were challenging, that made him concentrate deeply, but he never backed away from any of it. No matter how hard it go, he would continue to keep his head raised and march forward.

Interestingly enough, computing wasn’t really his thing or his goal. Like every other kid, he wanted to be a police officer or a carpenter because he wanted to be more than just a side-kick in someone else’s story. Most of the time, he used to keep to himself too and he always thought he would choose a job that would be less talking and more working. 

Nevertheless, he couldn’t get into any of the jobs that he thought would suit him. He ended up working for a computer store where instead of software programming, he learned hardware and design. He wasn’t enjoying school either so he thought that this was a great opportunity for him to start something new. No sooner than that, he began to take several leaps of faiths. 

The big question was to leave school or not. David was a hard-worker but this was precisely the moment where he had to use his problem solving skills. He had to eliminate one factor after another at a time to get to where he wanted to go. 

The journey was long and hard. He struggled a lot but he knew that without that struggle, he wouldn’t find the sweetness of happiness. Working for a company and seeing the mechanics of how everything worked, he realized that it takes a lot of guts to be bold enough and make a risk, but timing is everything too.

There were decisions that he had to make that weren’t just beneficial for him, but for others around him and the party concerning him. However, as we are all humans and we all make mistakes, he believed that having enough to be able to live a peaceful life simply stops you from making wild decisions on things that are run by everyone.

There was another important lesson that he learned at a certain point in time and that was that money doesn’t come if you’re just seated in your house all day and wait for it to come. People have a strange perspective on telemarketers and think that their job is to just take calls twenty-four seven, but that’s certainly not true. 

They are field workers too. They need to constantly seek people to design their solutions and that’s one of the hardest jobs ever. Their customers lean in to them just like how one would lean towards a friend. In this line of work, they can’t help but show their trustworthiness and reliability. He won’t deny that taking calls from time to time is hard, but their punctuality in life is what keeps them moving forward. Their choices define them, but it’s up to them whether to regret it or accept it. 

David himself stated that he doesn’t regret anything because the past has gone and the future is yet to come. There’s no way to change the past and what’s done is done. Even if he was given the opportunity to change the past, he wouldn’t change it because if he did, then he wouldn’t be the person he was right now.

It’s all a ripple effect and one should certainly accept their fate and keep moving forward.
