I must admit it’s been a while that I posted on my blog. It wasn't that I don’t want to write, it’s just that I had to take a leave from certain things including writing so that I can rediscover myself. For a moment, I lost sight of my vision and I was in a search for motivation. I once mentioned in one of my old post that life is filled with challenges of varying degree. But in my search for motivation, I discovered something which I want to share. As I write this post, I remember those moments that I was down, stressed up & almost losing it. I remember those bizarre moments in which all I thought of was survival. I remember those hurtful moments that I kept telling myself “Blessing, this is not who you are, there’s more to your life which surpass what you are facing right now, just hang in there & you’ll come out stronger”.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s not as if I was in a very big mess & neither was I involved in a scandal. But I was tempted. There’re a lot of time that the only thing I saw were opportunities to do wrong things. I faced the choice of abandoning my dreams, hope & aspiration for something ephemera. It was a battle I had to first of all fight inside my soul because those ephemera things were indeed attractive. I nearly give in but the thoughts of my vision held me back.  It was as if I was hearing a voice reminding me constantly of who I am and what I was made for. As I take time to reflect on the voice I realized it was the voice of my inner man (some people called it the subconscious) reminding me of my vision. Wow, I guess I just discovered something spectacular about vision. So I began to speak to myself the thing I heard. I did this continually for months until I revamped myself.  I can boldly tell you now that I’m over those bad moments. Although

As I prepared to go out this morning

Flashes of uncertainty filled my mind

I looked through my window in a puzzled state

To see if uncertainty is really out there

But, all I saw was a bright & promising morning

As I walked through my door to the hallway

I wondered how my day will be

Looking into the eyes of the people I met

I was frightened & wondered if today will be good

Nothing could stabilize my disturbed mind

Except a phrase in the bible

“Those who put their trust in God will not be disappointed”

 

Indeed my faith in God’s word paid off

My day was indeed a good one

I was favored & helped on every side

When all hope seem to have gone

My faith in God made me strong

And everything worked in my favor today

Faithful is he that has promised. What has said, he will do. Develop a strong faith in God & never let the pressure of life weigh you down. Remember; life is filled with challenges, our plans and prediction may not always be accurate but, those who know their God will be strong and do exploits. 

The journey still continue.....

Peace!!! 

One of the things I enjoyed as a kid was watching cartoon & I’m sure this is on the favourite hobbies of little children.  Walt Disney produced an animation movie titled “The lion king”. I watched this movie over & over again until I couldn’t find the CD anymore. One of the songs I love the most was the song titled “hakuna matata”.  “Hakuna matata” is a word that stem out from a native language in South Africa which literally means “there's is no worries” and it is akin to the English phrase "Don't worry". As a kid, I only enjoyed the melody of the song but as advanced in age, I discovered that that phrase was actually passing a message across.

We live in a world that some people called ‘uncertain’ because they believe anything can just happen even in the mist of predictions. As a result of this, they’re filled with worry because they cannot tell what will happen the next minute. A lot of people long for a life filled with joy, splendor & riches but, they’re always afraid of stepping out because of the uncertain nature of the world. So their dreams & aspiration turn into a fairy tale.

On the other side, there are some people, who are courageous enough to take necessary steps to become what they’ve always wanted to become. But, they get to a crossroad & become worried. At such moments, some decide to stop or even go back & indirectly give up to become victims of the uncertain nature of the world. There’s another set of people that decide to release their faith for an exceptional life but also become worried of how it will happen in this uncertain world. They have forgotten that

Let’s take an actor as an example; most of the time, an actor usually has a different personality from the role he plays in a movie. It is possible to see an actor who in real life is a model portrays the image of a notorious gangster in a movie and vice versa. However, this philosophy in the movie world has been imported into other spheres of life. But this time around, it is known as posing. That is, pretending to be what you are not.

The truth is we are made differently from each other. If you try to compare an identical twin, you will find out that they have different personalities even though they have the same morphological features. I‘ve met people who are actually posers in the way they behave & the interesting thing is that some of them seem to be making it in life by behaving that way. They are even admired by people. But in the long run, they always have regrets & being neglected by the same people that were admiring them.

Here is my point, being what you are not doesn’t pay any good dividend. Although the present may look good & pleasing yet, the long term effect is a life of pain &

As I journey through life, I was faced with different options & here is my account;

I faced the option of dropping what I truly believe

& pick up what looks like the good life

Where everything looks rosy at first

But the end is filled with painful regrets

I faced option of leaving my true friends

To hook up with visionless people

Who will be there for me at first

But will eventually corrupt my vision

I faced the option of stop reading God’s word

To start watching porns & reading destructive write-ups

Which will look pleasing to me at first
But will eventually destroy the potency of my mind

I faced the option of leaving the narrow & right path

And switch to the broad way where most people are

Which is short, acceptable & enjoyable to the flesh

But the end of it all is perdition

 “My intention is to bring this company to a level where our children will be proud of what we do”. I adjusted my glasses as I continue to address the board of Directors. “Not only should we think of the success of this company, we need to also focus on the legacy we are leaving behind for those coming after us. They must be able to see the excellence with which we are running his company so that they can desire to take this company to a greater height. After all, true success is seen when our legacy is kept alive by our successor. So join me as we refuel our passion for preserving the future of this company. Let us raise our children properly &  show them that it pays to walk in the footsteps of their father. Moreover, theirs is the future”. As I rounded up my speech, everybody stood up to clap. I took my seat & I blinked my eyes. I suddenly discovered that I was on my bed & it was 5am in the morning. It was a dream.

There comes a time when our heart begins to get attracted to a particular thing & It will look as if our potentials fit in to that thing. As we ponder on it & imagine the beauty that thing, it get into our subconscious and we begin to see a glimpse of it in our dream,

However, dreams will remain dormant without work. My charge for you is that you work towards the actualization of your dreams. Exert yourself & go all the way to transform your dreams into reality. A lot of people keep dreaming &

A lot of people long for a life where everything looks good. As a result of this, they strive daily to do their best so that they can have the kind of life that they want. Some people even bend their necks to yoke & take risks all because of a better future.

The question is; why are we on this quest? Why do we work daily & take risks because of a better future? The reason is not far fetch. There is this story of a man- Robert Kiyosaki who came from a poor background & went to his friend’s dad to teach him & his friend how to make money. He wanted a better future because he saw the possibility & he went on that quest as a teenager. He eventually became one of the successful real estate businessmen in the United States. Like this man, some people have won in their own quest while some are still on it but some have failed on the quest. 

The reason why we are all on the quest for a better future is that something in us tells us that there is a possibility of becoming all that we want to become in life. The process may be difficult, the road may be rough but there is a possibility. This informs our decision as we set out in life to become successful. President Obama saw the possibility of becoming the first African-American U.S president; he went on that quest & he won. Ben Carson saw the possibility of becoming a doctor & an influencer to his generation; he went on that quest & he won. Apostle Fred Price saw the divine choice on his life & the possibility of being a renowned preacher of the gospel, he went on that quest & he is still winning. However Adolf Hitler saw the possibility of becoming the unconquerable, he went on that bad quest & he lost.

My fellow visionaire, what kind of quest are you on? Is it to become successful farmer, teacher, businessman, preacher, doctor or is it to become a successful hacker, fraudster, swindler, etc? Whatever the quest you are on now will determine the future you are aiming for yourself. Choose to go on the right quest & let your potentials be channel in that direction & you will surely have a good
