Progress and the Process

in #writing6 years ago

Introduction (As all good posts have one)

And so as I return to my hostel from making gate from awfully long but albeit fruitful journey with a devastating hunger which hopefully will be satisfied courtesy @stevenson7 (dinner's on him.. Life saver the young man is) , I listen to The middle by Justin Bieber as I slowly approach the damn hostel (and to think thT I should be on holidays now.. GOD I HATE SCHOOL *wipes a tear)

Progress and Process

OK ladies and gentlemen of the steemit community. Yes once again it is your noisy next door steemit neighbor who goes by the name of me.. yes @osarueseosato and I promise I won't be making a lot of noise as a matter of fact I will actually be putting motivational face on (Yea I am a many faced being or guy.... whatever) and I will be talking about something I'm currently going through in my life that I would like to talk about it and it's progress and the process.. Yeah yeah some of y'all are already going oh no not this again.. i've heard this song hundred times.. and to such people I say SIT THE F**K DOWN AND LISTEN TO WHAT I'VE GOT TO SAY... Thank you..

So then boys and girls.. Welcome to the cesspool of silliness that is my thoughts..

What is progress
According to some dictionary I saw on Google that is not Merriam Webster, progress is

forward or onward movement towards a destination

development towards an improved or more advanced condition.

Basically we can call progress moving towards a particular goal.
Or aiming and planning to achieve something set in mind.

Now what is process
Also according to the same random dictionary that gave me the previous definitions for progress, defines process as

a series of actions or steps taken in order to achieve a particular end.

(Now that is very self explanatory, we should just end it here but nope.. I won't)
In other words we can say that the process is the practical side to making progress.

The truth is many at times in life we look around end we see the people around doing so much, Moving forward making waves and when we look at ourselves we are full of utter disappointment because it seems as though we are going nowhere.
The truth is we are most of the time fail to realize that there is a process. And we fail to realize that we are in the process. We don't realize they the current situations we find ourselves, the ones that are usually not tolerable is as a matter of fact part of the process involved and when we are experiencing this, we are making progress. The truth is in order for one to understand progress he has to redefine his whole definition of progress. When we begin to see progress as a process and not as a goal, we find out that we become more satisfied and at the same time more purpose driven in our lives.
Now what I mean when I say "seeing our progress as a process and not a goal" is this. We should realize that progress has no end and as long as we live, we can continue to make progress, in other words we should see progress as something that cannot be quantified in just the number achievements or accolades a person has achieved, but all that a person can achieve during his life time.

In summary live life, live in the moment, enjoy the process. You'll find out that you were making progress all along..

To progress, we need the right process. Nice thoughts!

Beautiful piece my friend,
You've done better for me bro, hehe. You the real life saver.
True it's a process, a lot of times we get distracted by our neighbors success and failure to realise that we ain't stagnant, we are making progress and its a process.

Beautiful piece man, sorry just coming this late
