The fault of the
education system regarding the issues raised above, hold back youth from
getting ahead and venturing into the unknown. It is this unknown that I wish to
elaborate on here.
What is the
unknown? It is a space that no one has gone to before. It is a risk that may or
may not work, but will only be found out if you actually go there. Life without
risks is not life. However excitement of the unknown must accompany the
journey, as otherwise one cannot benefit from this space and make full use of
it.
I encourage
youth to venture into this space. Most of you already have the security of a
home to go to when in need. You are not alone in the world. You are not tied up
with family and financial responsibility. It is only during this window of opportunity
that you can take up this space and make a go of it. You will then have no
regrets in the future that you did not take the opportunity afforded, as it
does not come again, as your life will move on to the next phase.
So let us define
this word SPACE and go find it, indulge in it, live it, wallow in it and most
of all, enjoy it to the fullest. It is fleeting moment for most of us in our
life’s journey. Think of the space as the great unknown. This is the time to
think of something new, an idea perhaps which as the subject above shows is
made up of many parts.
The word ‘think
outside of the box’ is the most important message here. That is the hardest to
do due to the spoon fed education that most receive. Therefore you find it
difficult to envisage life outside the constraints you have been set, or set
for yourself. So the initial stage of getting outside that framework and
exploring the unknown with a fresh outlook, without the baggage of the
framework. Change is a crucial part of this thought process, because if you
cannot accept change you cannot think outside the box! Embrace change, look
forward to change and make a change. It is those who change that succeed and it
is all about being fulfilled. That fulfillment differs from person to person and
therefore it does not matter what you do, as long as you enjoy doing whatever
you have chosen to do.
Grab the “SPACE”
afforded to you. Take a chance, think outside the box, make change to your life
and explore an idea, before it is too late.
