What we choose to be, always determines the path we follow and walk in. Our dreams of a better future, are what makes us strive to become better people or strive to be on top no matter what. Some of us follow the right path, while others follow the wrong path. If you really look at it, those with the most troubles are those entwined with great destinies. Think about it.

Most people on the list of Forbes Worlds Richest men had shitty pasts and were most likely not to succeed.
It's hard to believe but I have done my research, either they had nothing or they had issues in their lives then. This is because those who are destined to be great have a grave tendency of mixing with the worst of people and becoming those who influence the good to be bad as well.

Let me say they attract the bad because they are good. And in turn this bad they attract, changes them. To some they overcome the bad before they get too deep in it and to others they fall right into it and get stuck. This makes it impossible for them to come out.

Times without number, this happens to a lot of people. Now i want you all to imagine, imagine how many people out there you know who fit into the description I just stated and think to yourselves; If these people were not how they are now, what would they have become. It's a common case in Nigeria because around us we have thugs and touts in every nook and cranny.

These people were influenced into becoming who they are now.
No one ever decided to be a thug or a tout when he or she was born.

Conditions made them turn out to be who they are now. As difficult as it may be for some of us to accept, this is a true fact. When we were born we had dreams of changing the world and being rich, so did they. But unforeseen circumstances make us who we are , and changes what we think and in turn, what we do.

Now I urge everyone out there to think before they act and try not to be the unforeseen circumstance that changes someone totally. Because even the good can change good into bad with one utter of a statement, or a false action. Try as much as possible to be generous to those in need but not too generous, because teaching someone how to fish is better than giving him fish. Now try to be the change in the world today, and not the problem.

Believe in yourself and help others believe in themselves as well. Because words of encouragement goes a long way in moulding a boy into a better man and a girl into a better woman.
