You are never too old, not too little, not too illiterate, and not too BIG to pursue your dream. Don’t be the killer of yourself by putting off, your starting to work towards your dream.
Our dream to do positive things is God’s purpose for us. Whoever thinks he or she is too old, too young or too BIG to pursue his dream, is defined as the DEAD ALIVE. You are dead to the path to your success and happiness, but alive as a human. Yes!! That is what you are.
Pursuing your dream will give you your youthfulness back. It will give you energy and strength. You will feel fulfilling your purpose in life. And above all, you will feel living among living beings.
The thoughts that put many of us off are; people will think am crazy, my life will be screwed up if it doesn’t work out, I will have to sacrifice too much to make it happen, am too young, am too old, am too busy, I don’t have money, am not smart enough, am not knowledgeable enough, am not tough enough and above all, am not ready yet.
But then, let me tell you, there is no time and whatever God has purported for your life, these excuses will be nothing when you start to work towards it.
Everyone born into this world has been given a special gift which requires nurturing and putting it into good use. And out of this, dreams are borne. What then happens when you blend God’s gift with a dream? Undoubtedly, this will result in success.
So, I beg to differ that Education is not the key to success. it rather makes us lazy. Most especially Africans. it is your gift that is the key to success.
Though I am not condemning education. Per the definition of it, which says “it turns one’s soul from darkness to light” can only assist you to realize your dream quickly and act professionally.
For it’s written(proverbs18:16): “A man’s gift…makes room for him” and A man’s gift…brings him before great men”. If you still believe this popular slogan about education, my question to you is, how many professors have you seen or heard listed among the richest people in your country or in the world? Apparently, there is none.
God has created us fully-packed and kept some kind of unique gifts in us to make earns meet with them. No matter how big the world is, there is a place for you in it when you discover and manifest your gift. So it’s time to put your dreams in motion or identify your gifts if you haven’t and realize them. Because it’s never too late, once you still breathing.
So tell yourself, tell someone that it’s never too late.
