I don't really know much about you or the things you have been through, and I don't know where you stay, or the place you originated from.
I do not know about your family background. I don't know if you are rich, or you are surviving.
But here are few things I knew about you...
I know this about you:
* You are presently reading my post.
* You have a good heart.
* You are hard-working. ,
* You want a positive change in your life.
If I am correct, then this is what I have for you.
"YOUR TOMORROW WILL BE BETTER THAN TODAY!"
The above statement is a prophecy... but, don't you like to see it fulfilled?
You must survive today, to see tomorrow. Do you know what will happen if there was no 'today'? Tomorrow, will be out of reach.
I am telling you this, to help you understand that if you give up on your dreams today, tomorrow will not just be same as today, but may be worse. It's not about where you are today but where you will reach tomorrow.
I understand your struggles, and you may still need to put more efforts.
The fact is: Most of us where compromised from the beginning...
For some; self discovery and passion was ignited and for others, it was killed.
Some had siblings who constantly reminded them of their weaknesses thereby ignoring their strengths and abilities.
For some it was teachers, aunties, friends and even parents who won’t stop comparing them to other people.
For some, it was the need for acceptance. They desperately wanted to feel among. So they let go of their own dreams and desires to pursue the opinion of others about them.
Little Jane was always accused of being too outspoken and over confident and everybody won’t stop shutting her up because a lady must always be quiet and not opinionated— Who knows if that was a potential public speaker or an activist in making.
Little Kate loves to draw anything and everything he sees but his mum told him how poor and wretched artists are—Who knows if that’s a Leonardo Da Vinci in making.
Little John struggled with mathematics although he was the best student in literature but his two other siblings excelled at it without stress. Dad is an engineer and Mum is a chemistry teacher. John went to ‘Arts class’ and his siblings couldn’t stop calling him ‘olodo'.
Now Jane grows up to be so timid, shy and lacks confidence. She can’t even face the crowd and feels her opinion doesn’t matter in any topic.
Kate has given up on the art of drawing, it wouldn’t make him rich anyway.
John now has esteem issues and thinks his other siblings will do better than him in life and he won’t amount to so much.

In our society, people lack foresight to see unique strengths and abilities. They do not want to see things done differently; they will rather allow other people conform to the environment.
Unknowingly; they have killed raw talents, they have handicapped some abilities and limited the achievements of people.
Now the society is filled with frustrated adults, cranky youths and angry people whose talents and abilities is screaming on the inside waiting to be unleashed.
It takes only a few to see beyond the natural person and see the beauty within and what man is capable of becoming if they can tap and fully develop their potentials.
There is a lot hiding within you that you have neglected for so long. It's time to rise above limitations. It’s time to awaken the giants on your inside.
You were born with natural survival skills. To be more. To do more. To become more.
No man is strong enough to limit you if you do not give them a chance. You are greatness itself and your generation is waiting for you to emerge.
What did you love to do as a child and you stopped doing? Why? Let me know in the comments.
Now the past has past. This is today. To move forward, you should stop living in the past.
Accept who you are, Believe in yourself, but Never give up.
If you give up and fail now, then your labour may be in vain. And you will disappoint those who believe in you (including me).
The truth is..
It's not about where you are today but where you will reach tomorrow, and who you will be tomorrow.
You see,
Sometimes ago Aliko Dangote, Femi Otedola, Jimoh Ibrahim, Mike Adenuga... were looking at Abiola, Nwanyawu, Igbinedion, Dantata as YOU are doing now.
Sometimes ago Messi, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho were looking at Maradonna, Roberto Baggio, Romario, Jeep Stam, Luther Mathaius as YOU are doing now.
Sometimes ago Bill Gate, Warren Buffett, Carlos Helu... were looking at Rosthschild, Rockefeller, Henry Ford as YOU are doing now.
Sometimes ago GEJ, Late President Yaradua were looking at Tafawa Balewa, Muritala M, IBB as YOU are doing now
Sometimes ago Adeboye, Olukoya ,Oyedepo, Areogun, Kumuyi... were looking at Ayo Babalola, Obadare, Idahosa, Kc Price... as YOU are doing now.
Sometimes ago, Emeifile, Sanusi Lamido, Soludo were looking at Clement Isong, Vincent, O.Ahmed, M.Borno as YOU are doing now.
The only thing that speaks in the lives of these people and the only difference among them is TIME called TOMORROW. Your tomorrow is only in the hands of God. Get ready to fill the vacuum of the Legend you are looking at as you read this article.
Don't stop when the road is closed. Continue even if it will take you to create another. We will all get there by a consistent, day-to-day efforts.
Every king was once a crying baby, every Principal was once a Pupil and every building was once a picture. The person you admire so much was once a nobody. The person you attended his or her wedding was once a chief bachelor or spinster. So why worry in life?
It's not about where you are today but where you will reach tomorrow. Alphabet "O'' which stands for Opportunity, is absent in ''yesterday'' but once in ''tOday'' And three times in "tOmOrrOw''. So Stay Positive Always and have hope.
Continue to build your mental strength and develop your survival skills. Your tomorrow will surely be better than today.
Believe in yourself and never give up.
Thank you so much for reading.
Until next post, remember: You are magnificent..!
