Learn from the Ant

in Steem Ghana3 years ago

There is knowledge and wisdom all around us and it is easily available to those that wish to learn or those that seek it. The Ant for one is an interesting animal, one who shows a great deal of wisdom which ensures their survival. For such a small animal one may wonder how they are able to survive when the dry season come or when the Winter come.

When the ground is all but cold and snow, when there is no leaf to find or bread crumps to carry away. But they still survive and when the time is auspicious once more, they come out in their numbers and we wonder where they had been and where they may have come from. The Ant, plans it's life, it anticipate the future and make plans accordingly to ensure that when the difficult moments arrive they won't be found wanting.

And so they save, as much as they can, they don't spend all their earnings or goodwill during the good times, they save for tomorrow, for the time when things would be scarce and they won't be anything for one to even thing of saving. That way life continues to go on for them, they don't die out from starvation and they do not need to go on hibernation to survive. That is an important lesson i believe we can all learn from the Ant.

Let's learn to save during the time of plenty so that we can still be ok and survive during the time of scarcity, let's make good use of our youth and whiles we are able to work now and are earning lots of money, let's save, let's invest, let's put them in places that would bring additional profit that way get to still be able to live or survive when we grow old. I hope we all get to learn this lesson from the Ant.

Saving is very vital in all aspects of life. Even at the difficult point where an individual is not having enough to save he or she might depend on the old savings.
