DO THE BEST WHAT YOU CAN

 DOW G 

I was jobless for few years. I can still remember how difficult those years were for me. I didn't know what to do in the entire period of the time. I spent most of the time gossiping, roaming with friends and lying idle at home. I was a burden to the family. Now, I could secure my livelihood somehow. But, is that enough? 

I see many people around me who literally do not do anything. In the name of work they do just something, whether they are skilled or not, for a few hours in a week. And some do not do anything and depend upon others for bread and others. It doesn't mean that they are not fit to do any work. They can work hard to earn money for a better lifestyle. 

Many of us, before starting a work, do not know what to do and where to do or what will be the result of that work. First, we need to find out the dexterity and ability to do work. Secondly, am I interested in doing the work? Thirdly, will it be able to meet my expected gain or is this sufficient for me? Fourthly, is the work socially, legally and ethically acceptable? If yes, there should not be any hesitation. 

Wasting time is foolish and doing nothing is rubbish. 

Some people have expertise in certain works. But, still, they don't do anything. It's totally unacceptable. 

Most of us are engaged in such work where we don't have much expertise. We must identify our best possible qualities to do work. 

Who am I? What can I do? We should ask ourselves and proceed. 

Hard work, perseverance and dedication are very much essential to achieve our goals. My experience tells, we can start to work at any age of our life.
