By the way a person is active and shows his initiative, one can judge the quality of life of this person. This is the first and perhaps the most important area of ​​a person’s life, without developing and working through it, it is not possible to arrive at the main goal of a person’s life - to be happy. Our journey, our development and our training begin with our activity. Where does any business begin? It is right to take the first step with initiative. It is important that this step is prepared, planned, and calculated down to the smallest detail. But it also happens differently. Sometimes a step is large, wide, seemingly arrogant, not paying attention to anything except the goal, attention, sometimes a step is small, timid, not brave, the hamstrings are shaking, the legs are trembling, and just like that, you’ll fall and won’t get up. “Where am I, why, what am I doing?” It’s probably scary for both, but the impulse of their interest, the desire to move, develop, create, turns out to be stronger at this moment. But there is another step, it remains only in plans, fantasies, only in dreams. This step leads nowhere. There, someone’s shouts hang like weights on their feet: “What have you done!? Do not do that! What kind of nonsense did you come up with!? They don’t behave like that!!!...." These shouts have been hanging there since childhood, when you were still little, when your life was just beginning and you discovered this world with an uncertain series of your actions. Although no it’s not like that. It was to them, the “adults”, that from the standpoint of their physical strength they seemed so. They didn’t seem at all unsure to you. They didn't seem to you at all. For you, this was the most real thing. You boldly followed your nature into this unfamiliar, mysterious world. You performed any actions to the maximum of your strength and capabilities. Because you couldn't do it any other way. Because you did not yet know the word “compromise,” just as everything growing and living on earth does not know it, except for “adults.” They taught you to take others into account, to look around, to take into account other people’s points of view. It was they who explained to you what is good and what is bad, they were the ones who pulled you up in time, gave advice, prompted you, shared their experience…. Otherwise, you would... When I look at my little son, how he fools around, hooligans, misbehaves, how he attracts attention to himself with his self-indulgence, I am upset by the realization that this broth of social norms, rules, laws is boiling in me , seasoned with my knowledge and experience. And these are my cockroaches who whisper to me: “Stop this disgrace immediately!” And I think that this “madhouse” needs to be stopped. But sometimes I’m scared because I realize that I don’t see the whole picture of what’s happening, what started this process, what motivates my little son. And having stopped it, I will limit it to the maximum, I will cover it with a lid, only the boiling extract of its life. And will he then have enough fire to boil in the distant future, tear off the lid and take this important and necessary first step towards his dream?.
