AGAINST ALL ODDS

I look to myself and notice that there is a lot of things that needs be done. I keep asking myself;

1. What am I not doing right?
2. Am I really a failure?
3. Of what use am I to my community?
4. How do I want my unborn kids to feel about me if I don’t make things right?
5. How do I be a good example and a role model for my kids coming?

We all need to answer these questions… I mean all of them if success is what we aim to achieve.

Everyone living today was born with the same success story, but only few were able to find their purpose.

I am from a home where we struggled to have the three square meal… shame to dad I must say for not been able to in himself when he had the chance to. Investing here could mean anything, like learning a trade, vocation, etc. I believe that could have paid off.

He used to say, “Daddy left when I was 11years old”. I don’t buy that as an excuse because;

THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR FAILURE.

Well, he thought he didn’t fail because he has been able to take care of his family in his own capabilities by providing his kids with tuition fees, food and clothing, shelter among others… even to the extended families. He provided all these things but never stopped complaining of not having. That is exactly where he failed.

I became independent years back, and since then I have noticed that hard work pays. Working hard is not stress as many would see it but a “pathway to your success”. Correct me if I am wrong.

“There are two types of people who will tell you that you cannot make a difference in this world: those who are afraid to try and those who are afraid you will succeed”. – Ray Goforth

Succeeding today makes you succeed again tomorrow. Failure today makes you succeed tomorrow if and only if you don’t stop trying.

“Successful people do what unsuccessful people are not willing to do. Don’t wish it were easier, wish you were better. – Jim Rohn

I hear some say their success stories depend on another man. Yes fellow men help other men succeed, but how many are willing to help you?

Why sit down expecting help from another man when you can standup, work hard and don’t keep trying, succeed and be part of the other man’s success story?

We all need help to survive, but how you seek it matters. So many people today feel too proud being a part of others success stories… mehn! Fuck them all, you can turn the table around being a part of their own.

N/B: If you don’t fail more and more like a non-serviced factory machine, you will definitely not have a success story.

As for me;
I want my name to someday open doors for my Children and Grandchildren.
I want my name to someday break protocols for my friends and loved ones.
I want my name to someday be a Currency that can be traded with anywhere in the world.
I want my name to be a bargaining power.

This is not me wanting fame or power. No. This is not me wanting money or anything material. This is me wanting to live Life not just for myself but for people around me and generations that will come after me. This is me wanting to sow seeds that others will benefit from whether or not I am around to see the fruit.
This is me saying, I have just one life to live and I will live it with everything the Creator has deposited in me.

Today is another day to live this life we have and give it the best of everything in us.

What will be your success story?
