I want to look back and say, it was a hunger inspired success.

As we gradually approach the end of the year, I was forced to have a deep reflection on how the year has been for me, and most times, deep reflection usually creates reasons for deep thoughts. This year has not really been a smooth ride for me, it has been one with reasons to cry myself to sleep on some days, it has been filled with reasons to regret some decisions I made and it has been filled with the hope that things will get better.

Having a calm and cool personality made me feel there were certain things I could not do for myself, I entrusted some basic things about my life in the hands of other people. The desire to please the people who mattered to me placed me in a position of discomfort and sometimes even loss. The realization of the fact that I was unable to afford certain basic necessities regardless of how hard I worked helped me figure out the difference between hard work and smart work.

The moment I realized that I have only been a hard worker all through the year, I realized it was time to switch up my game and focus on activities that are rewarding. I started to look around and then I re-strategized and drew out a game plan to help me achieve results for every effort I make.

Learning to say No is something I have struggled with through the year, with the nature of trying to make everyone happy but instead of those people appreciating the things I did, they saw it as a strategy to take advantage of my calm nature. Having realized my strength and weaknesses, I decided to draw out some game plans on how to achieve some things that will make me a better person.

For those days I really desired things I was unable to afford, for those days I had to take terrible loan decisions in order to support my business and prevent it from failing, for every one of those days I was unable to support my family and every day I had to cry myself to sleep and wake up with a swollen eye, I am daring to DREAM AGAIN.
Re-awakening my steem account is one of the steps I am taking in the right direction, I have my written out goals to grow and become a better person here, and hopefully, when I am able to accomplish those goals, I will look back and say it was indeed a HUNGER INSPIRED SUCCESS.
