Share a lesson you wish you had learned earlier in life.

We all start out as babies, depending on our family, if we’re that lucky, or those people who love us enough to take care of us. As we grow older, we grow more independent and can complete tasks on our own.

We however remain part of the community of humans and rely on each other in various ways. Despite our many qualities, we however don’t know how to read each other’s minds. Therefore, it’s necessary to communicate and to ask where we need help.

Too many times, I’ve not asked for the help I needed when I needed it. And that, more often than not, has held me back. It’s important to realise that we become more effective when we go from independent to interdependent.
