Breaking The Law Vol.1: Did You See That Stop Sign?


This will be the first installment of my Breaking The Law Series which will encourage you to stop breaking the laws. These laws are not the ones that the police make us follow (there may be a reference to some real laws), but the laws that we should know about ourselves. Breaking our own laws means destroying yourself mentally, physically and spiritually. This first volume will be about "Knowing Where That Stop Sign Is."


We often get ourselves in situations that appear to be good at the beginning and later find out that this was not the right situation and you need to get out. So, let me ask the question of why don't you recognize the signs that it is time to get out? For example, a woman gets into a relationship where her and that dude are clicking on all angles. However, a few weeks later dude starts to change. His lifestyle that the girl thought he had starts to look different. She thought he was hardworking, but he's broke. She thought he had no kids, but he got five! Stop signs are all over the place and people fail to stop. You're breaking the law. This situation is headed towards emotional stress and a loss of valuable time. People fall in love too fast sometimes and can't leave that person no matter how fucked up shit becomes, but that is not the same person you fell in love with so you have a right to leave.


Stop signs are not only for intimate relationships. People also lose friends, because they missed a stop sign. When is it the right time to grow up? Is there a specific age where things are just not funny anymore? Some people fail to understand when enough is enough. For example, people often feel that college is the time when childish lifestyles are left in the past. However, some people still find stupid things hillarious, but what is annoying is the stuff they do is only funny to that person. If a group of friends are hanging out, just chillen and one friend is being obnoxious doing stupid random actions and he knows he's pissing everyone off, why won't that person just stop. Your warning is when you're the only one laughing. Everyone else is giving you that blank stare like you just walked into class late. Cut it out! Grow up and just be the adult version of yourself and not the same person you were in high school.


The final stop sign of the day occurs when people keep falling into bad career choices. Some people always want to find that get rich quick scheme and there was a point in my life where I wanted to do the same, but becoming wealthy is more than just money and it requires hard work. Even people who become rich quick still work hard and some people fail to realize that. If you recognize that you're going from job to job to job and not progressing to where you want to be (getting your own spot, car, etc.), take the time to think your life over. Go to school, because you can get financial aid. I've seen the brokest to the some of the wealthiest people get financial aid. School will prepare you for that next step in life, and I'm not trying to sound like the Everest Institute guy. Your stop sign was that second job that didn't work out for you after you graduated from high school. If you continue to go down that same path, you'll be 3o years old still looking for a new job, when you should have been well into your career.This isn't a diss blog, it's just a real blog!
