Smart people are known to be cool and organized but there are times they tend to overthink and get it wrong on simple things. Some of them face difficulties in moving on since they forget these simple truths;
1. Failure is a stepping stone
Smart people hate failing and get really depressed once they are defeated. Failing teaches one to be strong, learn new ways of doing things differently as well as getting more courage to soldier on.
2. Many choices disrupt decision making
Smart people are exposed to different opportunities. This comes with many choices that make them confused and unable to take action. One should not waste time checking out on every detail but rather make a decision on choosing the best that they think will work out perfectly well.
3. No one is always perfectly ready for an opportunity
Most smart people fail to grab an opportunity because they say they ain't ready for it. They assume that having more knowledge and skills with make them ready for an opportunity which is not true. Most opportunities want one to improve emotionally and intellectually. No one is always comfortable at first with a new opportunity but later adapts and achieves the best.
4. Self care is important
Most smart people sacrifice their time for others failing to look on themselves. As much as they are willing to help others, they should take some time to rest and rejuvenate to gain strength to help others.
