Back then in my primary and secondary school my parents used to sit me down and tell me that those who use to carry 1st, 2nd, 3rd... don't have two heads so I should try and buckle up inorder to also perform better because I was actually part of those doing competition with the last five positions in class, I took playing more seriously than even my academic that I allow it play down my grades, people would see me and just conclude that this girl is just dull and doesn't know book like that, infact when it comes to giving either class rep or prefect in school I was never considered.

I would say that was an advice i Ignored from my parents and teachers, it just entered one ear and came out through the other ear, i didn't take life seriously because I never really understood it, I just didn't see any reason to take life seriously so I let my childishness get the better part of me, ignoring that advice didn't seem like anything at the time I thought I wasn't just intelligent like my mates that's why I was failing subjects and I wasn't good at any of them.
It taught me alot of things, I never knew I was capable of greater things until I step out of my comfort zone, I never knew anything good up to the extent that people would applaud for me could come out of me, I never knew I could listen in class, understand the teachings, read on my own, write exams and come out with flying colors, I never understood the word "competition" until I was something worth to be competed with, I never knew I could teach someone else a subject and they would understand, I just didn't know anything about myself until I made use of that advice.
Ignoring that advice caused me bad results filled with low grades, it caused me lost opportunities that I could have gotten with good performance, it caused me low self-esteem and confidence, it really deprived me of alot of privileges but now I want to get it back double. My believe is that people can learn from listening to advice and also from experience depending on the one that hits you fast, but this two depends on the option you choose but I would advice that you choose to learn from that advice, life might not be fair but don't give it a reason to be harsh to you.
Thank you all my lovelies for used listening and reading
