The Purpose III
“The more you choose to see the better you become”. Those were the words that came to my mind as I was about to write this piece to you. The reason why many of us are where we are presently is because we have chosen not to see any better place than this or we have chosen to ignore or believed in our Heart that we can never achieve the better place we are seeing.
The very reason why we tend not to forget the names of some people is because somehow they have shown to the world what they were made up of. The likes of Ben Carson, Dangote, Otedola, Barack Obama and Our very own President Buhari. These men saw something many people were not seeing although as they strived to achieve their vision they encountered several challenges yet they never relented. Instead, they pushed more; taking their challenges as stepping stones and learning from their weaknesses and failures.
So friends what has happened to your dreams, vision and ambition? Did you just let them go because of some impossibilities you faced? Have you given up in yourself because of the difficulty you have faced? It’s time to fix your eyes on them again. Gather yourself together and re-strategize. One of the reasons the Eagle never misses its target is its ability to keep focus at it while doing all it can to get it. Get up. It’s time to work. I believe in vision.
One killing agent that hinders many, is their inability to see possibilities. Many of us don’t believe in ourselves. You hear people say “I can’t” a lot but I’ve noticed, with my little years in leadership that if such people are pushed a bit, they end up doing those things they said they couldn’t do, well. So, that’s the principle. Belief in yourself. Belief in your dreams. Go for it, persist, push, do all you can and learn from your failures.
