I was hoping l wouldn't have to write about this but oh well l am already here so l might as well.

They tell you "to make it anywhere you need good contacts,  you need to know people on the high that can pull strings for you" , which is true but what they leave out is the fact that there is always a price to pay. Might not be immediately but at one point in your life you will pay it back. We get discouraged to go forth because you feel if l know no one In this place l won't get the job but you need to ask yourself does the success of your dreams depend on knowing someone or you becoming someone known. Everyone is faceless until they take a mirror and hand it to everyone so they can see who they are. You tell people who you are or you will remain faceless. At first to stand up and represent yourself can be wrapped in humiliation but at the end of that moment someone will remember and recognise you.

Have you ever saw someone as your inspiration then get to spend time with that person and actually not understand why in the world you saw them as your fountain of motivation or even worse have that person push you aside and act like you are invisible? Nobody is perfect and that is pretty clear since well you yourself have your bucket of sin, but sometimes charity doesn't begin at home for some people,  infact they never come across it. Be your own encouragement pump station, from time to time you may look for ingredients to add into your own recipe of success but don't depend entirely on something besides yourself. You are entirely  a complete source of hope if only you never allow fear to creep in.

To ask for assistant from someone in high position , actually the key person in decision making processes of your dream work place or even someone who is part of that team can be really tricky. You know why? That person sees your hunger, understand your thirst and from a distance smells the burning passion in you to be beyond and they almost know for a certain you might make them disappear into the background and for that same reason that person will not give you any help even if they could. What perseverance has said to me is that "you can take the horse to the river but you can't force it to drink. However,  with some patience it will eventually be thirsty and drink". A spineless body fall to the ground with the first shake of the earth but one with a backbone stands their ground a little more.

Imagine how many times you have walked away from something you really wanted,  which could have possibly been yours if only you had the patience.  We always give up too soon before the actual end of the rope. Another thing l have quite got to understand is that sometimes you must act crazy to be heard because when you are too polite people don't take you seriously. It takes a lot to make a point and when you do, make sure its worth it. In this lifetime attention is very expensive.

We must trust ourselves a little more. We might not have everything sorted out but if we have the first step, its enough to risk taking another because only once the bird has left its nest is it able to see the bigger world beside the view from its nest and sometimes its not that scary to be out there on your own finding more of what  you knew nothing of. The thing about realising that you can do more out of yourself,  its impossible to sit and not be more.

We are accountable for the talents and dreams we have. If life doesn't suck itself out of your body, all that you are capable off sucks life out of you if not used and set free to live its own destiny. You see, either way you are ordained for greatness with harsh measures if needs be but you can't be alive and not be something.

That is my point!
