Stages of Life

About the Book

As individuals, we all go through different stages of life. As humans, we go through these stages throughout our lives which determine our destiny and how far we’re willing to go in order to achieve goals that we set out to accomplish. We go from one stage to the next, then to the next, and so on. Sometimes we slip and fall while in one particular stage and stay down. Eventually, we have to pick ourselves back up and recover from whatever it was that caused us to slip in the first place. That is, if we have any means to move forward. It can be frustrating, but that’s what makes our journey interesting and challenging; to see if we have it in us to overcome. And proceed to the next stage. 8 Brandon Garrison From the time I was born up until now, I’ve walked alone and dealt with many situations by myself. But at the same time I’ve been consistent in my personal life, as well as my financial and spiritual being. I’ve spent the majority of my life in my hometown; Denver, Colorado, where I’ve watched my life unfold. Watching myself grow older every year and seeing the ups and downs of a long, challenging lifestyle. When I say lifestyle, I mean a way of life. Waking up, getting dressed, talking to your friends and family about the news of the day, listening to whatever music you’re accustomed to, and hoping that the next day will bring you something bigger and better. That is a lifestyle. Not only that. The clothes you wear, the music you listen to, the people you socialize with, your cultural background, etc. All of these factors influence a person’s lifestyle and reflect on you as an individual. Whatever music you listen to or like is not a problem, as long as you don’t allow it to control your thinking and how Stages of Life 9 you live your life. Sometimes we get so wrapped up in the music we listen to that we let it cloud our judgment and affect our greater abilities. But this is just another part of what I call one of the many “Stages of Life”.
