What the heck is even wrong with me? What have I done with my life and how have I carried out with all my many and little plans about what I want to do here on earth?
I am tired and I am sincerely exhausted. At least I know am not daft, dull, lazy or unresourceful. This was exactly my thoughts one day I was seating in a cab with the hot scorching sun giving me the almost hardest time of my life. It’s the end of the year and I’m counting my achievements from my goals this year and I realized I couldn’t even meet up to 35% of my targets, this just makes me feel miserable. But, it’s just the end of a year, life has not ended and it wouldn’t end because I didn’t achieve all I wanted to.
I thought about you along the line, yes! you. I can't give up because of you. At least if I wouldn't do it for me, I should think of others who think the best of me and believe in me more than I believe in myself.
You know, most times people who don't tend to push their selves to success despite their challenges are just being selfish. Put yourself in others shoes who expect things from us, think of those children and teenagers that your mere act of pushing can inspire to do better things with their lives, sometimes it's really not just about what you get individually but the amount of lives you've affected, this doesn't mean you should just inspire people and stay where you're at. At the end, your success story makes them believe in you more and gives you the backup you need to talk to others.
I have snapped out of it, there's no giving up, not now, not ever. I will rather learn from 2017 and make 2018 better than beat myself over what didn’t happen.
I will be who I aspire to be, I'll get there and I'll live a legacy. I won't give up, you shouldn't either.
I rest my case.
