PREPAREDNESS

Getting ready, is an act of been prepared. A man once said " To market yourself before being prepared is a call to death". Preparedness or a man's preparation before launching out determines how far he would go in whatever he lays his hands on.
It is planning for the future, it is building a solid foundation that can stand any kind of trials, the wind blows,  rain falls and the foundation would still be strong.
      Before we lay hands on any course, or business, we must take time to prepare, because to a large extent, it determines the Success. As it is impossible for a student to write examination without preparation and pass excellently, so also it is impossible to succeed excellently without preparation.
       Preparedness is act of counting the cost. There is always a price to pay, if you must be great in life. So, before you rush out, know what it takes, don't rush out and run back. Many people make this mistake, because another man is flourishing in a particular business, they too would dash into it, without any kind of Preparation, they didn't know what it takes to get to the height of success in that particular business, and if they don't make it on time or they face little challenges, they fizzle out and quit. Little do they know that man does not succeed that way, you need to prepare before you make out for your journey.
      In the journey of life and on the road to (the City of) Success, men need to prepare for failures, mistakes, trials, challenges, hatred, oppositions, dark times. All of these men must encounter before they reach that beautiful City of Success.

THE MIRROR: IDENTITY AND SELFHOOD

Identity. It’s the essence of who you are—your personality, the core of your being. Selfhood, on the other hand, is the expression of that identity, the way you present yourself to the world. Think back to a time when you had to show your identity card. Do you remember the reaction of the person you handed it to? Likely, they nodded in approval, having seen all the necessary information about you on that card. Your identity, in that moment, was defined by the details captured on that small piece of plastic. But identity is more than just what's written on a card. It’s how you define yourself and how others perceive you. It’s the name you give yourself, the image you project, and the way people recognize you. Selfhood is often conveyed through three key aspects: - Dressing (Your Appearance) - Actions (What You Do and How You Do It) - Speech (The Words You Speak and How You Utter Them)  Dressing (Your Appearance) There’s a common saying: "Appearance shows the manner."

The Greatest Goal

When the ball enters the net, they say it's a goal! And the loosing team feel defeated forgetting that they've got the greatest goal.  Same to a man who has all his goals lain down and strategically pulling his efforts towards the goal but to realize at the end that, his goals can't be achieved, for known or unknown reasons. He looses strength. At times, he can feel like it's over. But the truth remains that it's not over until it is over. He's got the greatest goal.       Really, a goal is the achievement toward which effort is directed. And billions are the "I want to", "by God's grace I will", "in fact, I must" in the speeches of every man, especially at the beginning of every matter, but strength wanes and the story changes maybe in the middle of the road. Because all efforts put towards the achievement of the goals seem to be less affective. The truth is, no man has control over whatever happens and will happen....
