After reading a friends article, I couldn’t help but wonder what my fear was.
I was scared of being stagnant, scared to fail, scared of retrogressing…so I began my quest to success, counting my steps like a child reciting his alphabet.
guess what!!! Nothing walked. the moment I tried walking on my own due to fear, I became what I feared.
I lost sight of my vision, aim/goal… then I asked myself, What is failure?,what is fear?
Failure and fear are two intertwined brothers.
Once failure becomes your success drive, the moment fear becomes an alley…
Remember this,
Failure is a moments wreck, not a forever Crash. What matters is how you get back up after that moment wreck.
” I sat quietly on the stairs of the universities walk way, inhaled the fresh air and began meditating.
I asked myself striking questions like,
what is failure?, what is fear? did I rely only on my strength?”
: Yes I did!!! in life one thing you must recognize is that you strength is never enough for you to succeed. You need Gods strength as well as his help .:
then I got my answer, I was driven by the peril of success to the extent that I fell into the trap of fear who introduced me to failure.
Today, I’d say, there are 3 things you should flee from in life if you want to succeed.
-the peril of success
-fear
- failure
note, though you may flee, don’t be scared to fail. failure is not a form of motivation, but a fear stimulant. Just know you cant fail.
Why? you’d ask.
Who do you think Created you?
Have splendid Sunday friends…. xoxo
