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
there are very few
occasion that situation presents itself in that manner but the experience I had
plus the strength I generated from those experience has made it easy for me to
wave them aside
However, I still
have a lot of ground to cover. I neglected certain things in my low moment such
as this blog, people I care about & other things I should have achieved by
now. But all thanks be to God that has helped me to get back on my feet. Right
now, my degree of motivation is increasing daily and I’m picking up little by
little. I've began to recover the lost ground
& I've started achieving. My strength is increasing and I feel
rekindled to press on to become that which I've seen already.
Lastly, no matter what
you are going through and no matter how bad or serious it may be, don’t give
up. Whether it’s a temptation or not, don’t give in to the pressure. Just hang
in there & you’ll come out stronger. The force of your vision can do
wonders; it can infuse you with the strength you need to pick up yourself and
keep moving. Remember; your vision is achievable only if you believe.
PEACE!!!
