While somewhere between ‘developing’ and ‘developed’…..

       

        With roots in a home country that is marching aggressively towards the transition from ‘developing’ to ‘developed’; and branches in the current residence that wears the hat of a ‘developed’ nation; witnessing the conduct of each of these two diverse experiences has been truly educational and interesting at the same time. While the word ‘developing’ represents an on-going process, ‘developed’ status relates to its completion that depicts stability. Though the start of this post speaks about countries, their incorporation is purely symbolic. With an aim to ponder about the growing benefits of a ‘developing’ status and satisfaction of a ‘developed’ achievement, this blog was the end product of such a contemplation.

      Be it any sphere of life, developing mode prompts us to work hard every passing day. As an inspiration to reach the developed mark, this hard work motivates us to sow innumerable efforts. Transition from developing to developed assures us of correct movement in a correct direction. It acts as a torchlight that can provide guidelines for the correct route. ‘Developing’ to ‘developed’ is a process that demands consistent efforts, dedicated commitment and devoted approach. Faith towards completion of task in hand is the only fuel that can power this difficult transition. While developed status can invite laziness, developing mode cannot afford halts, stops or withdrawals.

     The move from ‘developing’ to ‘developed’ can relate to our education, profession, family and assets. In the continuous journey called life, every task demands our attention and presence. When one step of education is crossed, we find ourselves on the next step of career. When career and family appear to be in place, ‘assets’ call for our attention. As we move from the developing to developed phase in each of these acts of life, we realize the significance of persistence, patience, positivity and practice. As soon as one achievement changes the title of domain from developing to developed, the next domain waits for its turn. Continuous cycle of development towards the final destination is the factor that keeps one going.

     While somewhere between developing and developed, we experience several dynamic changes all around. Changes that offer diverse sights, changes that provide novel adventures - they pump energy and enthusiasm into our system. By adopting a different look each time, the path of progress appears interesting. As developing nations strive towards innovative ideas to gain a developed position, they are able to invite exciting changes and witness remarkable improvements. While developed nation celebrates the same pattern for several years from past to the future, developing nations are able to experiment, explore and execute. 

    

    Though the journey from developing to developed station seems interesting, new and exciting, it is necessary to alight at the correct destination. As we cannot spend all our lives along routes and paths, celebrating our successful arrival at the desired location is extremely satisfying.

      An on-going process that is filled with uncertainties, difficulties, challenges yet exciting experiences, this development is truly wonderful. No matter it relates to which particular sector of life, the development trail showers similar experiences throughout. Be it a professional skill that demands development or a hobby that requires involvement, be it a talent that requires improvement or a fun-filled activity that desires engagement, every part of our life is influenced by the stages of under-development to complete development. The journey offers gems of excitement, entertainment and fulfillment. 

     As the next step towards this thought, l was tempted to pen down the advantages of both the ‘developing’ and ‘developed’ mode, while we relate them with our own experiences.

Sugar coated highlights of the ‘developing’ stage:

·         It inspires us to work hard, show consistent efforts and possess the willingness to grow.

·         By channeling our thoughts towards progress, it takes us towards continuous improvement

·         While moving towards development, this mode encourages us to never give up. Though the path may appear difficult, the thought of bagging a ‘developed’ status inspires us to stay determined.

·         By lacing us with a humble attitude, down-to-earth conduct and considerate behavior, this stage prompts us to help each other, seek guidance from one another and benefit from experienced advice.

·         It offers the true taste of our efforts, while showing us the magic of determination, devotion and dedication.

 

Honey- flavored highlights of the ‘developed’ stage:

                           

·      Developed stage fills our heart with pride, satisfaction, content and happiness.

·      It acts as the wining trophy of our hard work and commitment.

·      It can pose as an example for those around us, displaying the significance of consistent work.

·      Developed mode can guide us to begin the next assignment with enhanced levels of vigor and preparation.

·      Successful encounter with the developed stage can boast our confidence and enable new experiments for the next experience.

       These are the sweet flavors of both the developing and developed modes as each one is essential in our version of the story.

      Focus at the start of the developing mode, enjoy the transition and rejoice at the developed achievement – after all life shows its true colors while somewhere between ‘developing’ and ‘developed’!
