To start, I will say I have a circle I’m most proud of. A circle I can die for. They say choose your friends will because they will be you when you aren’t around. That’s what I do and I am glad it had given me the results I needed. Not that I don’t have foolish ones among them, but they always stay up when needed. Get yourself such a family and you will be proud to have them around.
The success we all are yarning for isn’t going to come from a far hit from the people closer. When your true friends believe in the dream you have and stay closer enough to push it, your success is a 50% done deal. We have ideas and the people we share them with first are our friends. When they say yes to it, we care less about what someone from afar thinks. This gives us some courage to push it. But when you pay and they stand aside without a word just to see how you will make it bloom, that’s also a problem. I just don’t know.
At the fashion show
So let’s hear this story. I have always loved fashion. So there was this fashion show that I wanted to attend. I couldn’t be a participant due to some challenges but I had just met a guy who is a fashion designer. So I said went there with him with his clothes to advertise his clothes. We went there, gave the clothes to the models and were there to dress them. I did my alert as a friend. I promoted the brand and many loved and bought into it. His works spoke for themselves so it make it easier for me. But I had my designer already but just for the day, he was my designer. When everything was all over, a model came closer to him and asked him, “Who is this guy? Is he your brother or he is part of your business board members?” He said, “Oh, naa. He is just a friend.” “Keep him well. He is a true guy who can help your business grow. He is very supportive.” She said. That was her reply. I know when I buy into your idea, many will love it because I will be there in your darkest times to make many see the little light in that darkest time.
Give yourself the chance to dream. After that get people to support the dream. When you can do it alone you became stronger but in some cases, you just need that little support to tell you that your dream is worth pursuing. When you push to the max and there isn’t anyone to stand in for you, that’s when you should be your motivation. Make that dream come true and you will be proud of yourself. Many congratulations will come when it finally stands but will it be worth replying? This is a question not out of pain but out of why the congratulations matter. In the end, it’s not the congratulations that matters but what did you do to support that dream, what did you do to make sure that he will one day be worthy of that congratulations? For me congratulations sometimes it’s just words, my congratulations are the support, and love you showed me when I was on that lonely road to attain the best of myself. When I finally get to the end of the tunnel, I will know you did believe in me and my dream. That is when your congratulations will be from a pure heart and not from a heart of guilt.
If you have a dream, pursue it. It is yours. If it wins, it’s you. If not it’s you again. Just keep on pushing and in the end, it will be #Goddid. Because it was God who believed in our dream when no one else’s did. If it is possible then it’s you. It will be you if you don’t give up. Keep that dream and we will sing the praises at the end of the day.
