I remember years back i was in an eatery with a friend of mine, can still remember the spot we sat. We were discussing our visions, ideas, mission and things we intend achieving at that time and in the future. What and what height we would love to attain, our constraints at the moment and stuffs like that. Our meeting that day was more of how impactful we wanted to be.
After sharing mine..he shared his, and we advised ourselves to work towards it. After all said and done, I loved what i was hearing and suggested we work together to achieve better results as just one person cannot do it alone. (to achieve better results,i knew i needed a team to work with) Then he said something i will never forget in a hurry, it's been years now but it's still fresh in my head and that is what keeps me going and pushing harder till I get to where i should be.
He said- Tobi, your visions are great, your achievements will be great your points are nice but pls we can't work together. Yekpa!! Y? He said- I have a greater vision than what you are saying, my establishment will be bigger than yours. Debbie you cannot carry my vision. Ah!! Me!! I felt so reduced and tried explaining but proved abortive and we left. But I noticed since then, I looked down on my vision, I believed it will amount to nothing. I couldn't see far beyond what was said. I agreed with him.
Then I stopped pushing, I stopped striving, I started believing negative report about me, in short I underestimated the Grace of God in me. I killed my dreams myself. When negative reports are made about you, create something positive from such report. Do not kill yourself with thoughts of uncertainty. Turn negatives to positives. One day, I chose to turn my negatives to positives(If your vision don't scare you........I remembered this)
But today, my vision hasn't gotten where it should be but I know it is not where it was then, It has come to stay and to impact generations.
The point is NEVER EVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF GOD IN YOU. You might not be where you should be, you might have not attained what you should attain but pls do not look down on yourself. You are great, You are born to make it. Do not let what man say bring you down, believe in God's report and work towards achievement.
Stand up from where you are, in your little corner start doing something that makes you fulfilled There is a YOU(Your own uniqueness) inside of you. Awaken the You inside of you
