OVER THE HURDLES

No matter how life might seem, there is always going to be that reason why you shouldn't give up but just keep pushing. Lately I've been scared that I'm going to give up on trying because I feel I'm not capable of doing a lot of things but then I remember that the race is not for the swift, one has to just keep going slow and steady to win the race.

Having so much to do and not knowing where to start from is one thing that I've been struggling to overcome, I just easily get overwhelmed by some responsibilities but then I have to tell myself one thing, if you don't do it then no one will. As long as we are alive, there are things that only us can do and if we neglect those things, it might be something we will regret for the rest of our lives.

Someone once said that success is a journey not a destination and it got me thinking. So many times, we find ourselves setting limits to how far we wish to be successful in what we do but then true success is unlimited. It's like a level, once you are done with a particular level, you go to the next and just like that you keep going until the day you die.

As someone who wishes to be successful in life, one thing you have to know and accept is the fact that the road to success is hard to walk through. As you climb higher, the more the hurdles are for you to walk over. The truth is, if things are so easy for you to achieve success in whatever you do, you might think it's so easy and you might forget that it was something really hard for someone else.

Whatever it is, I believe that it's all by grace and not by just hard-work or by power. I know how much work I put into some things but then most of my plans still fall through and that's because it's not by might neither is it by power. Well, that doesn't mean we shouldn't try hard, it only means that we should learn to acknowledge the fact that no matter what work we put into something, we should always know that we only got fortunate out of so many others who put in the same effort or even more.

The new year is around the corner and so many of us are trying to make sure we get a lot of things aced this year so we can start our new year with a lot of new goals and objectives. I have quite a lot of things I still need to achieve before the year runs out and the truth is I'm putting a lot of pressure on myself but then it's going to be Worth it in the end I'm sure of it and even if it doesn't, I'm just going to be proud of myself for the much I could achieve.

So don't beat yourself up, you don't need to run so fast just make sure not to stop running. Until next time, stay AWESOME and JIGGY!!!
