Making hard choices for an easier life

Sometimes you need to push yourself in life. Sometimes life is easier making the harder choices. 

Struggling to move on a busy road and take a right turn to get to the Rotherhithe tunnel in a Bolt cab, I asked the cabbie to jump the queue using the middle lane. 

Reluctantly making the manoeuvre, getting some stares and honks we managed to squeeze in. And we were moving. I appreciated and thanked Abdi Mohamed. 

He reflected in the moment and said “we would have been stuck if not for you”. Me - "It was you who made it possible". Abdi - “I wouldn’t have done it if you hadn’t asked me to. Sometimes you need a push”

His last words resonated with me. I live by this philosophy:

Easy choices hard life, hard choices easy life

- Naval Ravikant

Funnily enough I gifted this wisdom to my dear friend Divya on her birthday the same night as a heman frame 🖼. And that’s where I was riding the Bolt from 🙃🙃
