If you are alive today, it is because you were successful in
coming into this world. There were a lot of you going into your mother’s womb. Out
of this lot, you emerged the victor through fertilisation. Your victory in
entering this world leaving others is the veritable work of the Almighty Allah.
As you grow up, a lot of impediments stand in your way. Some
you defeat, others still pose a threat to your very existence. The similitude of
this life for a man is like soldiers moving into battle. Some will go through
difficulties whilst others loop through successfully. In the cause of life’s
struggle some get carried away into extinction. Sometimes it all depends on how
we play our cards of life.
If we play skillfully the harp of life, chances are that we
will succeed. Where ever we are, our victory or failure remains a lesson for us
in other affairs of life.
I offer you dear
reader of my blog the following tit bits on how to be successful:
·
Stick to your convictions and never smell what
you do not eat.
·
Do not put your self in a compromising situation
which will eventually spell doom for you. Stay put and always do the right
things.
·
Believe in your self – make sure that you are
capable of becoming any thing you dream of becoming. If you can dream, then you
have chances of making your dream a reality.
·
Be factual and consistent in all your actions
and attempts.
·
Self discipline is the greatest hallmark of success.
Be tolerant and accept the views of others. Allow
others to air their views, because something good may be buried in the garbage that
usually comes up. Allowing others to bring up their views does not take away
your convictions. Put others in your own shoes and feel for them.
·
Respect yourself and never offend others without
any apparent reason.
·
Be wise in your judgement about others because sometimes
what you may see and hear depends on where you are standing.
·
Do not act provocatively on first hand
information. Inquire into information you receive before acting on it.
·
Jealousy is the root cause of most of our
failures. If we envy others it makes us think evil. We get so involved in these
thoughts to an extent that we forget to mind our business.
·
Patience should be our watch word. If you get so
desperate about issues you will eventually fall into your pit of sorrow.
Remember, the road of life is full of impediments and
therefore we need to tread cautiously as we move. It is only a wise man who
listens to the sun when it whispers.
