Wisdom from the ants is of the verses that struck me when I read the Bible.
Proverbs 6:8-11 (NKJV)says,
6 Go to the ant, you sluggard!
Consider her ways and be wise,
7 Which, having no captain,
Overseer or ruler,
8 Provides her supplies in the summer,
And gathers her food in the harvest.
9 How long will you slumber, O sluggard?
When will you rise from your sleep?
10 A little sleep, a little slumber,
A little folding of the hands to sleep—
11 So shall your poverty come on you like a prowler,
And your need like an armed
So I seek online for other philosophy and other wisdom from others. I found this in youtube and I created a transcription on it. You can also watch his video below.
Here is the philosophy from the ants which we can learn more wisdom in life:
- Ants have no commander. Ants do not need a commander, to tell them to get started. They work faithfully and need no outside accountability to keep them doing right and doing the right things. They work hard and will replace their anthill when it gets ruined. Meaning, if you apply this in your real life, be proactive. Be honest to yourself and be industrious.
- Ants plan ahead. Ants think winter. All summer long, they store provision in summer. They think the clock is running out of time. And they are hurrying to get food back to their hive. Meaning they hustle hard in advance to secure their future. Ants stay positive always. Ants remind themselves that winter does not last long. They know they’ll soon be out. Meaning, whatever happens in your life right now. It will not last forever
- Ants never quit. They only change their approach if they are going to somewhere or you stop them or block their pathway, they look for another way up, down and all around. They keep looking till they find another way. Meaning be learn to embrace struggle and hardship in your life. Be flexible, be like ants who don’t quit. Winners not quitters. Ants always do their best, meaning give your best in everything you do right now. It will always lead you to the greater things and the next level in your life.
