What are you still doing there?

Have you ever wondered why you are still on the same spot despite all you've done to be better, the lessons you've learnt and all that you've done to be better? The truth is nothing will change except we take drastic measures, we must do what others wouldn't do to achieve what others wouldn't. Someone once told me that "Everyone will still be the same person in 50 years, what would have changed is the people they've met and the books they've read." We all have to stand up for ourselves to be where we ought to be. We can't keep doing the same thing and expect a different result, if we want to achieve something more, then we have to give something more. Everything has its own price and this price must be paid to get it.
There's always more to everything but the whole package wouldn't come unless we are willing to go the extra-mile. Most times we convince ourselves that to make it in life you need to be highly connected or you need to know certain people to make a difference, but the truth is that what ever you need is already within you, and whatever you don't have, you don't need.So you can decide to analyse and list everything you don't have or work with what you have. A lot of great people today had very humble beginnings, in fact what makes the story sweet to tell is that despite all, they were able to rise above the circumstances surrounding them.
Our relationships are very important to our lives because the people we move with can either make or mar us. There are vision midwives and vision abortionists, the vision midwives help to deliver your dreams, they support, advise and encourage you while the vision abortionists abort your dreams, they tell you you can't do it and give you examples of the people that have tried and haven't succeeded. Until we begin to understand that we need to propel ourselves forward, nothing will change because if we don't believe there's a problem, a solution will be unnecessary. Always think outside the box, the greatest injustice a man can do to himself is to confine himself, once you have a dream, believe in it, refuse to be discouraged. It is your dream and no one has the right to make you feel like it is beyond scope. Avoid people that do not share your dreams or believe in you.
At every point in time, an evaluation is very necessary, that's why you have to be forward looking, have a detailed plan of what you should be doing and where you should be, always try to see if you're still in line. The ultimate goal of everyone is to be the best they can, always concentrate on your strengths and dwell less on your weaknesses because they're only there to keep you in check, they are not the main actors in your life's scene. Work towards achieving your dreams and always put yourself in check. SHALOM!
