Joseph is one of the most Iconic Bible characters. He entered Egypt as a slave snd ended up being the prime minister of the Land
And even though the Bible stated that he was second in command after Pharaoh , a study of ancient scrolls revealed that he was made the Prime ruler after the death of Pharaoh and he ruled Egypt till his death at the age of 110 years
One of the things Joseph is most know by is his dreams . He already had dreams of where he was going to from a very yound age. And it was the Intepretation of Pharoahs dream that brought him to prominece
Joseph story might sound like a fairly tale to most people, but it is a vivid representation of what happens when you hold onto your dreams in the midst of challenges
It may look like you have nothing now but believe me. There is so much more inside you than you care to admit. There is an illustration that I will use to explain the power of potential. I am a Christian and I believe that God created the whole universe as we know it.
Genesis 1:1 says
In the begining, God created the heavens and the earth
This means the earth and the universe as we know it was created by God. Now let me ask you a question
If You were opportuned to meet God before Genesis chapter one.WHen there were still darkness everywhere. Would you have called him a poor person ?
I say this because in a world where we have all seen the amazing capability of the Human mind. Some people still go through life doubting themselves. They fail to realize that they actually matter in this world and that they are not just passing through.
True wealth is not the physical thing you see, True wealth is inside and everything you think you have now is just a tiny fraction of what you have inside you which is yet to manifest
Everything great that you see today has a begining stage where it was still inside the mind or body of the person who brought it to Life. And just like onions your destiny have many layers. It is said that the enemy of your next success is your previous success
Many people easily get carried away by what they have achieved that they forget that they are capable of so much more. Stop looking at your achievements they are little in comparism to what you have inside
Some people let the limitations placed on them by others wear them down. And the truth is that people don't even have to like you. One of the mysteries of the Jewish phenomenon is that those who hate them end up needing their help
When you are good at what you do. You will be able to rise above sentiment and hate.
So go out there and create something you will be remembered for
Thanks For Reading

True talk... We should not be having inferiority complex when it comes to our potentials... The world is a stage for us to showcase what we are made of.
I have observe and experience what you said in my life and your word truly confirm that the greatest obstacle in life is the last success you made. And this sound to me that there is more in life and there is a need to press high to unleash the best out of our life. Just like what i red today which says that when you have the opportunity to rip off life , rip it completely because when life have the chance ,it will even take your last breadth. I am happy to come across this post because really ,it has awaken my spirit man to press more in this journey of greatness. Thanks my dear , have a splendid night .
Most people dream but kill the dream inside of them. Some even think where they are, is the best they can have. We must always look into the future and challenge ourselves to achieve that dream within without letting any negative vibe to counter the positive outcome we want.
"When you are good at what you do. You will be able to rise above sentiment and hate."
I really like that phrase. Indeed, when a person is engaged in what is his calling, he becomes kinder, more just and able to overcome the negative in himself. Such people are not prone to hatred and condemnation of others. They want peace and goodness. They Have the ability to find good sides even in those people who hate them, envy them and desire evil. Find your way in life is a great happiness, it elevates man above the passions.

So true, no limitations or opposition to our dreams should be so strong as to stop us pursuing the dream. If we don't quit and trust in God, there is definitely light at the end of the tunnel.
Very inspired post.
Hello @ogochukwu,
You have received up-vote from @steempeninsula account courtesy of @bob-elr and team.
Keep writing good post.
You're definitely correct. Everything made today was once an idea. Dreams are essential but putting actions to those dreams is what will make it a reality
This is really true man! There's a saying that "sometimes where you're so used to is not where you're supposed to be"
This is one issue many face, just because they are contented with what they have they think we can't go higher and that's where they're meant to be buh if you haven't achieved your dreams yet but you've been able to achieve part of it, it's a sign that you can do better, you just have to believe and aim higher. If you weren't meant to be there in the first place you won't be there at all.
Thanks for sharing man! Motivating as always 👌
I love the way you were able to link the story of Joseph with what happens when we hold onto our dreams in the midst of challenges. You are definitely right.
Just like you explained in the post, everything great definitely had a beginning (one that is likely not so great).
