Read Their Story First

in #life5 years ago (edited)

Every man's life is a story book. Some have happy ending while some others have sad ending. These stories are intended to help us to apply wisdom so as to avoid the mistakes some persons made in time past.

Yea no one wants to go through the painful experience some persons went through in time past but it's needful to know that one's destiny in life determines the kind of experience such a one may likely go through in life. Since our destinations in life differs from each other, so will our various experiences be in life. That of some may be similar but very unique to your person.

Like I said earlier, our life is like a book and it's needful we don't wish to be like others without reading about their life. Yea the sweet part of their success story may be the driving force which is making us desire to be like them but there is need to look beyond the sweet stories and search out the period of their pains. There were surely times they felt like giving up, they cried but cleaned their tears and moved on with their pursuit in life.

Every great person didn't just become great, there were seasons of pains and frustration they went through before arriving the place of success. The pains they went through were part of the source of courage and stability to move on with their dreams in life.

So whenever you see a successful person in life don't just be carried away by their success story, go deeper to search the times of their pains and evaluate if you will be able to pay the price attached to such greatness or not because

To every Prize, there is a Price to pay
