CHOOSING A GOOD PROJECT FOR YOUR NEXT STUDY

IN YOUR POTENTIALS LIES YOUR HAPPY ENDING, DO NOT STAY.

As human, we are born with potentials which are our inherent capabilities or inert tendencies to do, become or achieve something in life. Some are born with a number of potentials, while others are born with fewer. The number doesn't matter above discovering and maximising yours. This fact is acknowledged in many ancient books meaning that it has been so since the very beginning. E.g. According to the holy Bible, I quote; "And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey" Matt 25:15. The giver or creator gave everyone talent or better call it gift, or potential which translates to our purpose of existence.

In the journey of life, purpose needs to be discovered, nurtured and deployed productively in the right enterprise or field of career for life to be meaningful and rewarding.

Many potentials were never discovered, some were discovered but could not find the right nurturing for full expression hence become paralytic, some were discovered, but not nurtured. Such as may be deliberately held down or suppressed by wicked or carefree superiors or unfavourable circumstance. You wonder how on Earth could that be possible?, that's a simple fact for you. Some never developed their's because they couldn't find their rightful sphere.

Lots of visions could not see the light of the day as such may turn myopic, blurred due to mismanagement or some other reasons afore mentioned, lots of destinies have been traded on the platter of frivolity while time passes them by and could not be recovered anymore, some gave in to manipulation and never get it right again, what a pity. Some eventually got it right through better exposure and became happily fulfilled ever after.

You may be fortunate to find yourself in a supportive environment where you have wealthy or influential parents who are willing to give you full support, sponsor your education to any level anywhere with a confirmed job awaiting you before your final graduation, or you got it right by finding your right placement at the right time when you are able to deploy your gifts in your huzzles thereby leading a happy and fulfilled life, such are early risers. Some who couldn't find the right avenue to deploy themselves, fulfill their dreams or follow their passion on time may later resolve to gainfully employ the resources at their disposal to create or earn an even living for themselves, a consolation living. Such are late risers, while some who later resort to the resources around to create a big enterprise thereby earning big as employer of labours i.e. late but successful entrepreneur. Such are unstoppable risers, the diamonds from the gutters. Some who couldn't deploy themselves due to non discovery of potential or environmentally disadvantaged thereby giving up on their dreams, or become complaisant in their helplessness, hoping that some day, they will get it right but never do eventually when time caught up with them and it became too late thereby giving up. Such fail to rise, become a failure, bitter, and live  regretful life of sorrow and pity.

My friend, there is provisional time for every worthwhile achievement in life, there is season for every phenomenal phase. Time for waiting, time for Planning, time for gathering, time to pursue higher/professional education, Sowing time, Reaping time and lots more. Life is but a single slot, it has no default second half, we all have only one life to live. There are a few second chances in life for a lucky few hence, nothing is worth living your life wrongly for. Spending time in a wrong job, parading yourself about uninspiring individuals, becoming addicted, procrastination, etc. are serious invisible enemies that denies you of your rightful placement.

You may as well need to get out of that comfort zone to be your real self.

The economy may be ringing a different tone, you come from a poor background, friends and families may not be there to believe in you, your boss may be lordy, or dominating, you might be feeling lost due to thinking of past failures and disappointments. Such is life, realize that it is your personal responsibility, resolving to become that which you desire or dream off. The largest room in the world is still the room of change. Beware of destination disease, be mindful of locational trap. Don't be trapped in that wrong career, wrong job, wrong course of study, unproductive association, unhealthy traditions, superstitions and damaging beliefs, don't get into that wrong marriage it will mare you. Avoid unhealthy competitions, choose to be your better self, be diligent, hardworking and ambitious. know where/when to stay and where/when not to each time, surround yourself with positive like minds, and always ask for help when necessary.

Locate your rightful placement, where your peace, progress, positive self image/esteem, growth and quality development in your area of interest is best guaranteed.

Where your piece of mind is threatened; Don't stay,
Hey;
Where you are manipulated rather than being motivated; Don't stay,
Where your instinct is subjugated rather than being inspired; don't stay,
Where your positive contribution is culminated rather than being propelled; don't stay,

Where your esteem is encumbered with excesses and you couldn't help it; don't stay, because your growth is not feasible in such environments, your progress will be retarded by their insecurity; they can't manage or accommodate what you are carrying.

Your worth is however priceless, you are going somewhere, to places where there's dare need of what you carry. You need to move on, improving on yourself until someday, opportunity meets your preparation or your part crosses with theirs because if you stay, your stagnation may never get you there,  let alone qualifying you.

Each time you feel that there can be more to your achievements, earning, joy, fulfilment, happiness, and your quality of life in general, take a directional timely step forward. It will pay off in the end.

You can attain that promotion, you can start that business, you can obtain that college/professional degree, you can top your class,win the award, you too can be a millionaire in your even age, you can marry that girl or guy of your dream, it's all about your decision.

Invest your time and effort in good education, and training, attend conferences, join a focus group in your area, join a cooperative in your workplace, know your civil right, hold unto your God and be positive towards life.

Bishop David Oyedepo who has Authored a huge number of books covering wide areas, a Bishop, renowned founder says; "Hard work doesn't kill, it is wrong work that does, the if I perish I perish company are those that flourish". This emphasises the power of courage in overcoming the fears that stops you from doing what is right.

Abraham Lincoln, a renowned legal practitioner, a key brain behind that antislavery movement, a former President of the United State of America says; "Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other, I'll prepare and someday, my chance will come". This quote emphasises the power of resolute mindedness, and constant self development in areas that matters.

Get it clear that, Places doesn't make people, people do.

Dear friend, when you are able to locate and operate in your rightful place in existence, a remarkable, and gratifying life remains your sure reward.

 You will Succeed.
