USE YOUR OWN PLATFORM FIRST - FAITES ATTENTION A VOTRE PROPRE PLATEFORME D'ABORD
The rate at which people want to be famous these days, is alarming. The unfortunate thing is that most who hurry to fame crash out and stay out. In this age of everything instant, many have been so burnt they don't want to ever try again. I come across many people, especially youths, who want to be on the world stage without mastering their own personal stage. Most people don't pay attention to the fact that we all have our individual platforms on which to shine before we can proceed to gain recognition on public platforms. You have to be able to conquer your own audience before others will permit you to have a joint performance with them. I am amazed by youths who come to me not to learn but to prove to me that they have got what it takes without any evidence to buttress their claims. Immediately they are made to understand that they need to follow due process to reach their goal, you won't hear from them again. The world does not reward those who dream, it only recognises and rewards excellence won by those who have paid the necessary prize to accomplish it. If you want to effect major change and make a difference in world, you will have to start from an excellent performance on your own stage. Have a lovely day!

DO NOT FOCUS SOLELY ON YOUR AUDIENCE. - NE PAS SE FOCALISER SEULEMENT SUR VOTRE PUBLIC.
Many a purpose have been truncated because the visionary turned their attention from fulfilling their purpose to commercialising their gift. Purpose is using your gifts and your talents to improve lives and society. Financial gain is an offshoot of pursuing your purpose, it is not the goal. Unfortunately, many today are more focused on what they can give to get money and fame rather than what they can do to make a difference, improve lives and leave a legacy. Personally, I am very concerned about the way most youths are primarily seeking ways to monetize their gifts because this limits their creativity to just what they can do to make money and become famous. For a developing continent like Africa, that is not music to the ears at all. Only selfless pursuit can bring about lasting impact. When you seek to improve the community by doing whatever you focus on with excellence, people will naturally gravitate towards exceptional passion. Fleeting success is based on financial pursuit. Lasting success is based on having the kind of impact that can change the narrative wherever you are and on whomever you come in contact with. Many have left their footprints in the sands of time not because of their wealth but because of their creative, innovation and their inventions. Enjoy your weekend!

JUST HOLD ON! - NE QUITTEZ PAS!
You might just be one idea away from the solution. If you don't allow your focus to be broken by the amount of of time, energy and resources you have put in, the idea will come from an unexpected source. The wait and the journey will be worth it. Many give up just before they get to the finish line because they are blinded by exhaustion. You have what it takes to make it to the finish line even if you have to crawl to get there. #nevergiveup #dontquitEnjoy a wonderful weekend!
