Truth be told not everyone celebrates your success, in fact your success mostly amazes them,they act surprised because they were not expecting something great from you.
Welcome to my blog and welcome to hive Ghana prompt of the week, thank you all for taking your time to stop by.
One subtle principle I learnt last year was letting my success make the noise.I adapted this principle after learning a lot from life.
Before last year I was someone that got family and friends involved in her life and plans. Whenever I am planning something big or expecting something big I let everyone in my family and all my friends know about it.
It was not as a result that I wanted to brag about it or pride, in fact most times I tell them to pray for me, I am planning something or am expecting something.
But after some time I noticed these plans or expectations I do make noise about hardly come through, the year 2017/2018 I wrote jamb exams and applied to university of maiduguri, Borno State.
I was so sure I was going to school that year,in fact all preparations were made,I told everyone I would be going to school,I waited and waited but I was not offered admission to university of maiduguri.
And everyone kept asking when are you going to school,why have you not resumed yet,so many questions from family and friends, the year 2021/2022 I applied for a police job.
This time around I didn't make so much noise about it, maybe because I just wanted to try my luck.I did the physical screening I passed,I was called for the exams, I went for exams I passed.
Most people don't make it after the exam, only few people make it to the final stage which is the medical,but I made it to the medical,I was so excited again I told my family and friends about it.
And that was how I didn't get the job, then 2022 June 12, 2022 I got engaged.Did my introduction July 2, 2022. The wedding was set to be March 2023,as usual I told everyone, family and friends all were aware.
And the wedding was cancelled,I received calls from family and friends asking how far as usual but this time around it was difficult to answer them,my spirit was down, this one was different, maybe because I have grown a bit.
So last year in January when my wedding was set for May 17, I didn't tell anyone even after everything was set,I told my mom and dad to announce it only a month before the wedding,and that was what we did.
Everybody was angry that it was too late,how will they prepare? We told them it was something small. If they can't make it they should not worry, After the wedding I kept getting complaints like you said is something small? Is that what something small looks like?
Some kept saying your wedding surprised us oh. Sorry we didn't bring anything, most of them came to see and have something to talk about but this time it was different, so I have decided to let my success make the noise.
