New day to reach out to your greatness a bit higher. I remember this question that this great speaker asked me, If you had to live your entire life like you are, would you be proud of it? Would you be happy about it? And off it challenged me to advance, be hungry, be ready for this thing. To commit my very being to this calling and course of greatness. And that is how my life changed. i remember back then I felt inferior to people who had things I didn't have. I got out of my comfort zone. I spent hours in my dream. I remember some nights going without sleep seated in front of my laptop. It was all I had. I appeared stupid, and very mad to stay up all night with a lecture at 7:00am in the morning. They woke up and laughed, "Man u may be taking IT but young man you are mad." i felt humiliated. My company was dying. I had made a loss on all the assets in the industry. With the little I had remaining i tried to bring it back to life. But hell no. The little I bought blew up in 2 weeks' time. I said "Why God? Am not trying to steal from anybody, am not conning anyone, am not robbing a bank, why is this happening to me?" And sitting there in the pool of tears, that one last hope I had died when I lost the only thing I had left that I cared for, My Education Pattern. I was pushed back one year. And it took something from me that really woke me up from my comfort zone.
Sometimes you could count on people to help you accomplish your dream and they fail to show up on the big day. They fail to send you that capital you wanted. you count on some people to deliver results only to be met with surprise of failure at your desk the next morning. You could give it all you could and things don't just work out. Men I tell you it's hard to contemplate who to count on at such a time. Who to turn your tears to when you get tested with cancer, who to cry on when you realise you made a mistake in your life, who to tell the bad news of being HIV +ve, It's had to contemplate who is there for you when all your family dies in one tragic day. It's hard. It's hard.
But sometimes life has got to surprise you with disappointment for it to remind you you don't live forever. Live now. Live full, die empty. Sometimes life has got to take away from you something that you held so dear to your life for it to challenge you to live and stop rehearsing. For a long time I lived life like a coward. I hated competition. I hated innovation. I was being a copy cat. Until that day i lost everything. It woke me up from my sleep. I learned that in life, things don't last forever except those treasures we keep high up in heaven. I learned that these clothes I wear will tomorrow be rugs, why not dive into the rough game. I learned that the little coins I was earning would very easily get robbed from a bank, why not risk them in my business. The little hate I had for people who did bad things to me, tomorrow it would give me B.P, Why not forgive, does it make me any lesser? The little fears I kept for my business getting out there and handling heavy commercial jobs, what had that fear earned me except some devastating losses of a whole D.C.C, why not give it all I can and call it, Diamond Empire?
What is it you fear to lose? Today people shall talk about how you lost and soon they can't even recollect what really happened to you. Get off that relationship that is pulling you down, get off that job that is procrastinating your greatness, get off that comfort zone that is destroying your sense of innovation. Trust me, If you don't invest in your dream, Someone is gonna hire you to invest in their dream.
WHAT IF IT IS ALL YOU GOTTA GIVE TO GET TO YOUR DREAMS? WHY NOT GIVE IT A SHOT?
Today remember this, LIVE FULL, DIE EMPTY.
