You know, i would love to take this periods of breakdown in communication to actually inspire you, every Monday. I want to be a part of your world by impacting positively the best way i can.
And by now, you already know that i didn’t get here by chance or favour from men, I got here by first: God and I owe all that I am to him and secondly, I got here by persistency and perseverance.
I consider these two factors as the foundation of any great achiever. They are the cornerstone of talent. The brother to determination and fortunately, this determination can be found in every walk of life and in every age. We succeed only because we are determined to succeed, and not because we are destined to succeed.
The greatest achievers do not simply sit back and wait for success to come along, they keep moving forward and persevering and persisting because they are so determined to achieve it.
If you want so badly for life to give you what you want then you should work it out so badly that the sweat that pops through the pores of your skin smells like blood because that’s how much you want life to turn out for you. Remember how Jacobs in the holy book fought with an angel all night so that he will be blessed??? What price did he have to pay for success, a broken limb but yet he persisted till he got what he wanted. Now take a cue from there!
Really honey, with persistency hmmm you would have to dig deeper and when you decide to add perseverance incase what you are pursuing isn’t forth coming like the way you expected it to, then that i will tell you that NO ONE thing or NOTHING, absolutely nothing can stop you from getting there.
Persistency takes you a step farther towards your dream but perseverance gets you there with hope as your guard. I shouldn’t be on radio and by now, wouldn’t be JUICY JAYNE, if i never tried, if i never persevered, if i hadn’t persisted, if I had one morning decided to pack up my bags to leave knowing that i squatted with some people and slept on a hard floor for over 1year 5months with sinuses.
I freaking went through all that because i just didn’t want to go back home to mumsy borrowing and struggling to pay huge bills or sometimes go a day or two without food…
I didn’t want to go back to face me, i face you… i didn’t
want to go back to sharing toilet/bathroom with tenants.. hahhahhahhaha.. i
swear, i didn’t want to go back to poverty, harsh conditions even though where
i was, wasn’t convenient, i told myself, what can be worse than this?? I would
be a FOOL to look at this one chance and turn my back on it just because of
common 1year and 5months of inconvenience, backache as a results of sleeping on
the floor, being too careful not to hurt your accommodator even though they
find a way to kick your butt out….hahhahahha thinking about it, i sit now and
pat myself in the back and say, Jane Nnaa ehnn, you try!!
Now, i have a place to lay my head that i call my paradise… i aint there yet but i am not where i used to be. Persistency and perseverance with the hands of God brought me this far. So why throw in the towel, Give up on life and all that you have been given freely by God to do?… You are just being lazy, that’s all and you need to be whooped.
