No matter how we try to fight it, we cannot deny that there have been times in our lives where we feel nothing is worth it anymore. We just quit trying and refuse to be inspired by anything again. We stop wanting what we want and stop craving what we craved for desperately we just want a time out from everything.

Then again, we cannot stop ourselves from feeling guilty and feeling ashamed when we face ourselves and don’t like who we see. It is like the reflection you see in the mirror is not want you expected, this is not who you want to be and we start doing a check to see where we missed it.

We have designed such beautiful blueprints for our lives and given our best shot but we still have not attained what we think we ought to have attained at this level. Then we ask why, we want answers and we start doing the introspection and most likely, we tend to apportion blames on the government and the system, on the people around us and their policies and then finally to ourselves.

We get angry with ourselves for not doing enough, but what happens next after this?

It is okay to feel you have not done enough and its okay to feel like the system is against you and the people do not inspire you, but what happens next after this? Does it make you relinquish and hold back or is it the reason why you want to thrive and succeed at all cost.

Your greatest mistake could be that you allow the system dictate for you what you can achieve, your biggest regret could be that you allow the people around you gain so much control over your life that you cut yourself short in the midst of your greatest creativity simply because you did not see anyone encouraging you. Success is for the brave and a brave man has no limits, his ways are spontaneous and his feet are quick to move, he does not take matching orders from the crowd but waits only for the command of his own spirit.

What makes a man weary in his journey is lack of direction. A man who does not know where he is going is the first to stop moving and also the first to get lost because he cannot even locate the road he came from, could it be that the reason you feel tired and frustrated in your walk of life is because you have been walking aimlessly?

Is it this generation that preaches freedom and levity that have the most record of men and women who have taken their own lives? Think about it, what freedom are we preaching? Is it not the same freedom we preach that has held so many in chains of entitlement and riotous living?

The only freedom a man has is the one he purchase. Freedom is bought with blood so a man who wishes to be free must be ready to take his chance on life.

Life is like a heavy weight champion boasting inside the fighting ring with the champion’s belt throwing a challenge on the people gathered around. Daring whoever has heart enough to step out of the crowd and into the ring for a wrestling match and whoever wins becomes the new champion.

The crowd is safe and that is why so many of us would not step out. It is comfortable staying in the crowd, you know nobody is coming to fight you as long as you remain in the crowd but hope we also know that even though the crowd is safe and offers protection, it is also a cover on our potentials. As long as you remain in the crowd, nobody knows your name, you will just be referred to as one of the people in the crowd.

That is why you need to step out. As long as you keep doing what other people do, you will never get the life you have designed for yourself. As long as you keep flowing in the same direction with everyone, you will never know where you are going and because the crowd is too much when you will realize that you do not know where you are going, it will be difficult to get back on track because you don’t even know the direction from which they came.

Alone is lonely and nobody wants to be alone but we know that eagles do not soar in groups. For a man or woman who wants to do great things and achieve so much must first come out away from the safety of the crowd and into the ring of life to challenge life. Do not accept things for what they are, question everything. You have to challenge life and despise the flamboyant boast and threats life throws, life may threaten to knock you out but challenge it anyway.

There is only one way to know how strong you are and it is by being strong.
