If we knew the sequence of our life's timing and seasons, we might lose ambition...

Uncertainty isn't necessarily a bad thing, it keeps the embers of life and professional pursuit aflame 😎

[Julius Ajayi, Ph.D. @JuliusFunmi]

When trying to leave your comfort zone, don't jump out of safety.
A snail doesn't leave its shell, neither will a fish leave its natural habitat.

#CriticalThinking tip: Sometimes the most interesting things isn't what you find, it's what you didn't find. What's missing? Who's missing? What didn't go right when you expected it should? And why do you think that is???
