MOVE AT YOUR PACE

The snail keeps moving regardless of what the society thinks of it. It keeps moving at its pace without caring who the heck is looking at it. The tortoise also never cares what other beasts speak of it. It is just so concerned about its journey that it has no time for hearsays. It must do so if at all it will get anywhere. Anyone who will get anywhere in life must be deaf to the shouts. Anyone who will get anywhere must be his best self. Forget about the invectives of the crowd. Care enough to ignore their vilifications and disparagements. You know what, just be yourself. Move at your own pace, care less about what people say. Walk at your own haste, and run at your own velocity, you don’t have to run like Usain Bolt to get to your destination. NO! In actual sense, you may not be able to run like him. You may only hurt yourself if you try to do so. We are all running the same race but we are not on the same plane. Some on the fields, some on the rocks and maybe some on the hills, some will get there on time and some will get there maybe later. The crux is just that you make sure you get THERE.

THE CHOICE OF GREATNESS

It takes no more effort and energy to be great than to be a mediocre. It is the application of that effort and energy that matters. You can either channel it into something productive or not. It is the same amount of time that all of us have but the use is the only thing that differentiates us. Anyone of us can be great but it’s not everyone that will be great. Likewise, anyone can be a mediocre but it’s not everyone that will be a mediocre. It’s just the choice of which one to be and the use of your resources that make the difference. If you could apply the same amount of energy and effort to greatness as to mediocrity, which would you go for?  You can either choose to be great or to be a mediocre.

RUN FOR YOUR LIFE

Every morning, an antelope wakes up. It knows it must outrun the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every same morning, a lion wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the slowest antelope, or it will starve. All of them running to survive in life, it’s a must if at all they wish to be alive to see the next morning. Everyone who will ever survive in this life must run for their lives. Anyone who will ever get anywhere in life must be ready to run until he or she is safe. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a lion or an antelope - when the sun comes up, you’d better be running. Run for your life!
