Specialized knowledge is needed in every area of our lives. It is especially needed in roles where you are working but may only have experience within one portion of that role. You have to then gain experience about that other area as well as know who you can turn to when You are needing the knowledge necessary.

It may be a new parent who has to be able to turn to those who have had kids before. In the volunteer role with marine rescue when I started I had the experience with the radios, I was needing to learn about the boating side where I had hardly any experience at all. The experience that did have was from small sail boats in high school. In that role I am able to turn to someone and say I have this can you please advise. It’s a matter of being willing to turn around and say I am needing help with this area.

We may be learning all our lives and prior to becoming a success those lessons that had to keep on learning before we can achieve that success which we were all wanting to achieve as a person. It may be that we had to learn more about a lot more than you knew. It can sometimes mean having to turn to someone and say alright can you talk to me about this please. Telling the person that is enough for now and lets pickup soon I am in information overload now.

In today’s society we have easier access to knowledge of others in the form of phone, email, skype, messenger, text message or a letter. It’s so much easier now to communicate and ask those questions that You are wanting an answer to. We also can get the knowledge we are needing from books, studies, the internet and many various sources.

Thank you to Michael and Linda Dlouhy for this powerful group which allows to see where I am needing to grow as a person. Also allowing everyone to become a more stronger person.

Your friend for life,

Big hugs,
