I am
hardly a writer but I need to express this and I am a risk taker, so just get
the idea from this one, leave he flow, it wasn’t meant to flow.
Sometimes
it feels difficult to peruse these articles as the figures these guys mention
are so staggering and sometimes give my heart a flip. You wonder what your life
has been and where you were when they made such achievements. But how else
would one spur the fire within if not to see the fire burn and it leave an
embossment on the mind. Even though it unconsciously leaves a dazzling target
imprinted in your mind and you wonder how you may reach it, you are encouraged
to take a step in a direction that may ultimately lead there, baring the
constraints we may whip up for ourselves. These constraints include a waning
determination and consistency – star attributes that we realize are required, from
exposure to these lifestyles. We also learn in a subtle way that these two
attributes must go together in this quest with a sister component which is
luck. The luck I refer to is the combination of preparedness with the slightest
place of opportunity, not the other impression we ascribe to it, that of
abstraction.
“stop waiting for things to happen, go out and make them happen”
When
I go through these articles, it does not just occur to me that these guys are really
making waves. I try to picture their minds, assume their mindsets, walk through
their minds, imagining how I may handle the sort of challenges they may or may have
encountered in their sojourn, how they may have surmounted them and how I may
fare in such position. This enables an unleashing of potential engagements in
the mind that become reality with time, because you would have created a habit
that cannot but be lived.
As
a result of my inordinate exposure to diverse spheres of life, I have become an
ardent believer in the truism that we live our subconscious creations. But one
thing I had to decide not too long ago is to always seek the consent of the
supernatural one – in my case, the God trinity – in all my ventures, and I say
to Him that His will be done. The tendency is for this attitude to result in
indolence, but you cannot be serious if it does. On the other hand you work at
it, leaving no stone unturned, including acknowledging His grace in making it
work. And the truth is that after all these, if it will work then it will, if
not, there is no amount of work that will be done to result in success of that
venture (afterall the same processes that work for some who do blood money is
the same that does not work for others and when they persist it claims their
life). I think it is a principle. But then again you have to factor in the
positive mindset that believes that every disappointment is a blessing. That is
one strong character that must be imbibed or you will end up not doing anything
significant. Every disappointment is actually a step forward. Just embark over
and again on another venture and see it through. Don’t lag and dwell on the
disappointment of one venture and transfer the ‘winchy’ to another.
These blog posts are an expression of the kind of things that inspire me; my idea is just to
catalog these exposures for readier access. I had sort and archived some of
them for some time on my facebook and twitter timelines but I had thought that didn’t
give reasonable room for expression. Meanwhile, I had dragged this idea of
using a more effective and efficient archive system in a blog site. That’s procrastination
and it is said to be the thief of time. Well there is also the consolation that
it is never too late to start. That, I think, is a weak way to perceive it
though, especially when you seek a way not to punish yourself for relenting. But
you know the important thing right now? I have started. It is a learning
process in the art of the start, one that must be learnt by force, or else you realize
late that you have not achieved anything significant in your life. So just
start. And you may get inspired with me too.
