The most challenging thing for one to do in
this life is to discover oneself. It takes a lot of courage to discover and
accept oneself. If there is one strange thing I have seen in this world; is we
always turn out to be exactly like the people we criticize, focus on or hate.
Do you know why? The answer is simple. We master the mess of people so badly
that we know nothing better than following in the same mess...
I once read this story of a lady called Jane
who got out jogging in the morning. While she was jogging, Jane saw this lady
jogging ahead of her. The ladies outfit was quite eccentric. Jane got so caught
up in the ladies outfit that her mind got off her jogging. Before she could
realize herself, she had jogged far pass her turn. Sadly, she realized her
concern for the stranger's eccentric clothes had thrown her off course. The
same applies to our daily lives. I realized sometimes how caught up in the life
of others that I forget my goals, targets and sense of purpose.
How many times have; what people said, what
people did not say, what people did, what people did not do, what people are
going to do, what people believe, what people do not believe, swayed us from
our goals and dreams. Was what, who and when you dropped you dreams and beliefs
for worth it?
I love the runner Usain Bolt. I have watched
him run a number of times and I think a great part of his success is focusing
on the track. I watched him run once with a close opponent. They were almost at
a tie just before reaching the finish line. Usain’s opponent made the mistake
of losing sight of the track to see if his opponent was catching up and that
was how Usain won.
Many at times; we are drawn in by depression,
envy, hatred, low self esteem and other ills because we lose sight of our own
race and get fixed on that of others. What is your race? Where are you going?
What do you wish to achieve? Fix your focus on the track. Keep your mind on the
prize…that’s how you win!
Love!
God bless you!
Stay you!
