8-ball pool

Life is simply a 8-ball pool game ...

You will be asking why, how, life have what to do with pool ... hmm... is related actually, let me explain.

Do you have any experience in playing pool?? Hmm... perhaps u can try it if u feel what I wrote is not very true.

In a game of pool, u nid to be calm, u nid to know how to strike the ball, where will the cue ball ( white ball) go after striking the other colored or striped balls .... and in the game of pool, we nid to plan properly, cannot be hasty, nid to create opportunity for urself to score while resisting ur opponent to score ... Is seem easy but without proper ways of doing it, without a calm mind, it is very difficult to do it ... Besides that, the strength and the way u hit the cue ball have to bring into consideration be4 u really play ur turn.

Sometimes, u have to be gentle to the ball, sometimes u have to hit it hard, sometimes u r required to "slash" the ball to make it go side-way or diagonal and whatever way ...

However, how does all this relate to life .... This is how, let me show u ...

In Life is the same, u nid to always be calm and be highly patience, even though things are very near, and u wish to grab it, but u have to see the whole picture, have to see the consequences ... In the game of pool, if u r too hasty to score a ball, u may blind from other source that may lead u to victory ... likewise in life, if u r too hasty, u may be blind and fail to see any other better alternatives available, tat may lead u to a better success and all u nid is juz patience, calm and main thing, do not Hasty !! The more hasty u r, the more u will lose ... Like what my old man always tell me, once u lose calm, u lose everything ...

Besides that, Pool u nid to know the right time, the right amount of strength to use and also the same thing, patience to score ... Likewise, in life, u nid to identify the right time, and use the correct amount of resources to put u on advantage ... every single steps u make, must think carefully. Pool is not a game that simply hit the ball and as long as the ball when into the hole then that's it ... Pool advantage quick-thinker and quick-planner. They do plan for their game, they do think although they dun really looks like thinking ... So, in life, we nid to know how to put ourselves in advantage and plan ur steps with patience, and dun simply make it move, follow ur intuition. Those who are intuitive uses their brains too, if not you may end up killing urself ....

In the game of pool, we nid to identify which position will post threat to us and which will advantage us. Where the cue ball stop is very important, it may determines the winner of the game. How the balls are being scattered influence a lot too. Likewise, in life, we nid to be clear of which is opportunities and which is threat, how to avoid threat and how to grab opportunities ... Sometimes, those that looks like opportunities may be a threat and those that looks like a threat may be opportunities ... Like in a pool game, those tat looks like going in may not go in and those that looks like not going in have a better chance of going into the whole, is juz that we been too hasty and missed it ....

Lastly, if u lose the game of pool, u still have a second chance, may be a third chance of competing again. However, life is very similar to a game of pool but there is one huge differences which is life cannot restart ... you may not have a second chance ... so be patience, calm and dun be hasty in choosing the pathway of life ...

Remember sometimes, it is not necessary to be hasty when opportunities arrive as there may be a better options out there ... be fair to all options, dun limit ur prospect ...
