Hi guys I hope you are all doing great and having a good time. If you’re having a good day I wish you good luck for the rest of the day and if you’re having a bad day I also wish you good luck for the rest of the day too and don’t forget it’s going to get better and always have it in mind that it’s just a matter of time before things get better.
I’ve been ILL for the past 2 days that’s why I’ve not posted for a few days now. I’m getting better now and responding to treatment and I promise more content filling posts would be uploaded as I get better.
Okay to the topic of today’s post “Know your style, and then rule your world”. The reason why I chose this topic was because I needed to let someone out there know He/She has something special they haven’t discovered yet and also to help those who have experienced similar things to this topic we’re about to discuss.
Everyone has a special and unique character but similar behaviors and that is why everyone has something different from the other person. If you feel you’re not productive for now, don’t feel useless but use this as an opportunity to really find your true potentials and unleash them for people to see and really to prove your WORTH.

Everyone is virtually good at something the other person cannot do or exhibit other behaviors and characters.
My life has been a study of existence, though I might be young but I’ve gained some experiences from my surroundings and I’ve learnt a lot from Families and those around me. I take advice from anyone willing to offer and build myself to becoming a significant person.
When I started doing music and playing football I wanted to create my own style and also wanted to sound and play different because I wanted to be outstanding and also creating my own legacy. This prompted me to downloading free beats with different genres on the internet, and freestyle to the beats consistently until I finally discovered the genre of music I was very good at and the genres are afro, pop, dancehall, and sometimes I jump on some tropical beats as well.
Do not imitate someone’s personality or trying to be like someone else. For example having a role model and building your life’s plan according to how the role model’s life is. Try to create your own unique style that people will know the quality of your style.
There was one time I was obsessed with the same Messi of Barcelona that i wanted to play football just exactly like Him. He made me become a big fan of the football club Barcelona. Then I would go to YouTube and watch some of his clips and practice almost every day after school and I learnt some skills that I still even use till date when playing on the football field.

Messi was my IDOL in football then and even now but it dawned on me that I was hiding behind his tracks and not creating mine and I couldn’t play like him because I don’t have his speed, agility, balance, dribbling speed e.t.c which made me lack behind in our school football team because I wasn’t concentrating on how to become a better player and to try other things out as well and it made the coach not have me in his first eleven squad list and he told me to work on myself more before I could be qualified to join the 11 squad list. It really affected me because I wanted to be in the list so bad so I had to work on a new way of improving. Though I’m not a fast dribbler like Messi but I cultivated the habit of running and dribbling as well until my best skills was the leg over trick which worked for me almost anytime I play football with my friends. After discovering this trick, I trained myself into becoming a better footballer with the skill and I tried as much as possible to use this skill more often on the football field till I became good with the skills.
The training day came as usual then our coach divided us into 2 different groups to play against each other while the school team was team A while the other team which I was in was the second team called team B and he said he wanted to shuffle the school team team A so he told us to give our best in joining the school team. I saw this as an opportunity for me to restore my lost glory in the team. When the game finally started, it started cool and was getting really tough when it was getting to the end of the first half. I almost didn’t perform well in the first half and I tried my best for my team team B to score it was of no avail.
The moment second half started the tempo of the game was changing because everyone wanted to stay on the school team which is team A. I was given the shirt no 8 and I was playing the midfield that faithful day and it wasn’t easy for me to have possession of the ball then. I had the chance to talk to the guy wearing the shirt no 9 for the both of us to swap positions because I noticed he was getting tired and he couldn’t run to gain possession of the ball and he agreed. I had this courage and was sure if I had the ball I would really change the game and at least get a goal for the team also for the coach to reconsider me in the team. Then towards the 85th minutes they scored a goal which was kind of expected from the coach because the first team was obviously better than our team and they almost gained possession throughout the game but this increased our morals to equalize and the game to change in our favor, this went on till the last 2minutes of the game when we had the chance for to deliver a counter attack pass and fortunately I was there to pursue and I gained control of the ball, people were marveled with my speed and the way I ran towards the ball and right there I knew I could add running to my list of abilities. Then I was driving the ball with my top speed because I knew the goal was important and more importantly to utilize the opportunity well to get our team a goal. Then the last defender for the opponent came to tackle me and to defend the ball well because it was a counter attack where most of the opponent players were not in their normal positions, I was scared of losing the ball to him in the first place but I thought about the trainings I’ve had on my own to improve and I was able to dribble him conveniently using the leg over trick leaving me with the goalkeeper and I scored a wonderful goal that day and people were amazed and I too was amazed because first I didn’t know I could play the striker position well and secondly I didn’t know I could run like I did on the football field that day.
After the match the coach commended my efforts on the field and said I’ve improved but needed to work more on myself and told me I could join the school team but I would be under considering maybe I would lose my fitness again which I proved him wrong and I got better with time because I already knew where I was good at. 2 days before our graduation ceremony the coach organized a football match between us the graduating students with another graduating students of a neighboring school which I played the striker position and we won conveniently with my name on the score sheets twice.
I didn’t mean to write so much about myself or to give a personal story but this is the best way I could express myself and my feelings as well. I wish you read and understand my points of view about writing such much words about myself.
I have a lot of scenarios and examples that has happened to me about being one’s self but I chose to share the music and the football story because those are the 2 most important hobbies which I loved doing and I also wish to further my career in the music industry later.
Sometimes I do reminisce and think about what other things I’m good at and I try to pick it up and add it to my skills collection and to be unique and outstanding in it as well.
CONCLUSION
Even identical twins might have similar skills like singing and the rest but they have different behaviors and characters so don’t think you can be like someone but rather be yourself.
Learn from your role models but don’t imitate him/her because I won’t advise it, they’ve built their own legacy so should you starting from today.
NOTE; you can discover your talents and skills any day anytime so don’t give up on your talents and skills but try to improve and upgrade them into the latest version of your innovation.
I wish you all a great day.
