From youth, parents either by what they did or told their children have set them up to believe something. Our socicty has led us to accept one limitation or the other; they have made us believe that some things are impossible. They have made us believe that if we fail it's not our fault and if we succeed it's not by our effort.
Our religious leaders have made believe that God is the architect of every "good" and "bad" thing that happens to us in life. In fact, our society is always trying to show us the bad side of everything around us. They have convinced us to believe that we are worthless. Some of our teachers have told us we're dull students and cannot learn, and that nothing good will come from us.
But Einstein was told same, yet he became one of the finest scientists that ever lived.
Benjamin Disraeli was laughed at and hissed into silence by members of Parliament when he first attempted to address them, yet he went on to become a great statesman.
The famous Gates of Microsoft was said to have a porous brain, yet for years hr topped the list of the world's richest men.
Henry Ford, Albert Schultz and others were equally told they can't become, yet they ended up becoming great inventors, presidents and founders, builders, industrialists, academicians.... people the world can't but listen to.
What could have been responsible for the success of these people? What one thing did they discover which placed them on the stage of greatness?
The answer no doubt lies in self-discovery.
These people discovered themselves; they discovered the person living inside their frail bodies.
There is the real you inside your body seeking for expression.
Inside a poor, tattered and wretched garage boy, Aliko Dangote was a business mogul.
Inside a blind, deaf and dumb, Helen Keller was a performer, a celebrity. She had to discover that person inside and allow her express herself.
Great entrepreneur and financial educator, Robert T. Kiyosaki often speaks about how poorly he did in English Language when in school.
Today, he is an accomplished author with a national bestseller that has remained on America's New York Times for years.
He was poor in English Language, but his body housed a writer, which he was able to discover.
Who are you?
Who is living inside your body?
You could be housing the guy that beat an Olympic record.
You could be housing the greatest physician of the 21st century.

It recently dawned on me that one of the most frequently asked question often is not answered correctly is "who are you?"
When people are quarrelling, you hear such things as " who are you?....Do you know who I am?"
This question is clearly an evidence that we believe thereis somebody - the real is - inside us not known by the other person. And the irony is that most people never got to know the person inside them.
Who is inside you seeking expression?
Inside you might be one greater than Sole Soyinka, someone who could be richer than Donald Trump of New York City!
Truth is you don't know what is yours until you discover who you are - Find out.
I always tell my daughter be positive Nothing in life is hard you just don't how to do it yet never stop learning
Indeed.... Once you put your mind to it, it's half solved.
Starting is always the difficult step
Looking forward to the next installment. Everyone needs reminding that they are the the pilot of their own plane and can go where ever they wish.😎
Indeed they do, and no one else will do it for you if you don't do it yourself.
