If you trek today, you fit still trek tomorrow

 

If you’ve read any of my previous blog posts, the violence should not be new to you by now.

With the dawn of every new day, we all are presented with an opportunity to do better and be better. And in other to achieve this, a certain level of effort has to be put in. It is not enough to wish, hope and pray for better days. What brings those better days are the actions we take to achieve them. Mr. Kunle the motivational speaker who made 10 million in 10 days and has a mix of both British and Abeokuta accent has given you 15 tips to go from zero to hero and you’ve snapped your fingers at more punch lines than you can remember but all these will not cumulate to any form of success if you do not PUT IN THE WORK.

When they say “Life na turn by turn”, it does not mean that there is an attendance list that God has, calling names alphabetically and handing out success. It is only those who put it the work and are patient enough to reap the fruits of their labour actually get their “turn”.

Because you have 5 thousand in your account now does not mean you will have 5 million later in the future.

Even when you have something you do, you should also remember that there are hundreds of persons who do exactly what you do, and if you don’t stand out, you might not make so much progress or get any recognition in that area.  

Knowledge is important,  and yes, you can get that knowledge by attending Mr. Kunle’s success seminar, but what makes you stand out is actually applying that knowledge. It is not also enough to just believe that things would get better or that you will make it in life because even the bible says that faith without work is dead.

Trust me, it is not always easy, this life journey that we’re all in demands a lot from us; commitment, drive, patience, focus, determination and a whole lot more. But whenever you’re feeling down, or things seem not to be working out even when you’re making conscious and deliberate efforts, just look ahead at the bright future you want for yourself and get back at it knowing that sitting on your oars and just hoping would not yield any result because if you drink garri today you fit use hunger sleep tomorrow.
