I LIKE ME!
by Samson Adeyemi (SamTheGreat)
I know the title is probably getting you thinking already.
You see, many times, we tend to always want to copy someone. We want to be a version of somebody else without realizing that we were born to be original and not copies. I’m not saying it’s wrong to like a thing or two about others. The question you ought to ask is “what if somebody else wants to be like me?”
When it comes to an ambition you have or a goal you want to achieve, do not focus on the help you get from others. I believe that if someone is not passionate enough about their own ambition, why should I be?
You have got know your plan inside out, let it come out in almost all your conversations, believe in yourself so much to the point that people may almost be irritated by how much confidence you have in you. If there are a lot of ifs and buts in your communication about your goals, it will be a challenge for anyone to be passionate about it for you.
Also let your passion show beyond words. Demonstrate it with action. If it involves money, put some of your money into it however little. If it needs time and attention, put that into it too. If you have not sown your own seed to cause your ‘goal field’ to be fruitful, no one else will be interested in sowing there.
More so, learn to celebrate yourself, cheer your self on. If you keep going and you look behind and no one supports you, keep going anyway, you probably don’t need them. You are a strong team by yourself.
In all, be your biggest fan, win for you! When your success is evident to all, those who want a rub off of that success you achieved will be wise enough to join your chariot.
Remember, you are the best motivator you can ever wish for. The world is waiting for something from you, make it happen, be a success and change their lives.
