I think we all have "duh" moments in our life. You know, those times when the answer or path was right in front of us but for whatever reason we just didn't see it? I've experienced plenty of "duh" moments in my life! The funny thing is, I really don't regret any of them now. Oh I did at the time but not now. Now, I realize that every "duh" moment of my life has led me to better things. Without all those "duh" moments, I may not have learned, I may not have grown, I may have just stayed oblivious to the things that would help me.
Sometimes I think I just might hold the record for silly mistakes but if so, the truth is I appreciate that! I'm one of those people that believe learning is something we should continue to do our entire life. It isn't something that can be accomplished and checked off your to do list. It is ongoing because you can always, always learn something new!
The reality is "duh" moments should be celebrated because they mark a moment in your life that you find yourself saying "duh" because you just discovered something great. You just realized something you didn't know before! Yes, "duh" moments are priceless!
Even better than having your own "duh" moment is sharing that experience with others! So next time you have your own "duh" moment, take a minute to say thank you! Take a minute to share!
Have you experienced a few "duh" moments in your life?
