Success is the key of life

I was jogging this morning, and I noticed a person about half a kilometre ahead. I could tell he was running a little slower than me, and I thought, good, I shall try to catch him. I had about a kilometre I needed to turn off. So, I started running faster and faster. Every block, I was gaining on him just a little bit. After just a few minutes, I was only about 100m behind him, so I really picked up the pace and pushed myself. You would have thought I was running in the last leg of an Olympic competition. I was determined to catch him. Finally, I did it! I caught and passed him. On the inside, I felt so good. "I beat him." Of course, he didn't even know we were racing. After I passed him, I realised I had been so focused on competing against him that I had missed my turn. I had gone nearly six blocks past my turn, and I had to turn and go back.

Isn't that what happens in life when we focus on competing with co-workers, neighbours, friends, family, trying to outdo them, or trying to prove that we are more successful or more important? We spend our time and energy running after them, and we miss out on our own paths to our God-given destinies. The problem with unhealthy competition is that it's a never-ending cycle. There will always be somebody ahead of you, someone with a better job, nicer car, more money in the bank, more education, a prettier wife, a more handsome husband, better behaved children, etc. But realize that "You can be the best that you can be, you are not competing with anyone."

Some people are insecure because they pay too much attention to what others are, where others are going, wearing and driving. Take what God has given you, the height, weight, and personality. Dress well and wear it proudly. You'll be blessed by it. Stay focused and live a healthy life. There is no competition in Destiny. Run your own race and wish others well.

#2025, I am running my own race. I am not competing with you, folks.

HAVE A BLESSED WEEK AHEAD.

*FACTS OF LlFE👌🏾*

1. Take risks in your life. If you win, you can lead; if you lose, you can guide.

2. People are not what they say but what they do; so judge them not from their words but from their actions.

3. When someone hurts you, don't feel bad because it's a law of nature that the tree that bears the sweetest fruits gets maximum number of stones.

4. Take whatever you can from your life because when life starts taking from you, it takes even your last breath.

5. In this world, people will always throw stones on the path of your success. It depends on what you make from them - a wall or a bridge.

6. Challenges make life interesting; overcoming them make life meaningful.

7. There is no joy in victory without running the risk of defeat.

8. A path without obstacles leads nowhere.

9. Past is a nice place to visit but certainly not a good place to stay.

10. You can't have a better tomorrow if you are thinking about yesterday all the time.

11. If what you did yesterday still looks big to you, then you haven't done much today.

12. If you don't build your dreams, someone else will hire you to build theirs.

13. If you don't climb the mountain; you can't view the plain.

14. Don't leave it idle - use your brain.

15. You are not paid for having brain, you are only rewarded for using it intelligently.

16. It is not what you don't have that limits you; it is what you have but don't know how to use.

17. What you fail to learn might teach you a lesson.

18. The difference between a corrupt person and an honest person is: The corrupt person has a price while the honest person has a value.

19. If you succeed in cheating someone, don't think that the person is a fool...... Realize that the person trusted you much more than you deserved.

20. Honesty is an expensive gift; don't expect it from cheap people.

STAY BLESSED

MY FATHER'S ADVICE...
1. Not everything will go as you expect in your life. This is why you need to drop expectations and go with the flow.
2.Reduce bitterness from your life, that **** delays blessings!
3. Dating a supportive woman is everything.
4. If you want to be successful, you must respect one rule - Never lie to yourself.
5. If your parents always count on you, don't play the same game with those who count on their parents.
6. Chase goals, not people.
7. Your 20's are your selfish years, build yourself, choose yourself first at all cost.
8. Detachment is power. Release anything that doesn't bring you peace.
9. Only speak when your words are more beautiful than your silence.
10. Invest in your looks. Do it for no one else but yourself. When you look good, you feel good. Normalize dressing well, you're broke not mad.
11. Some people want to see everything go wrong for you because nothing is going right for them.
12. Being a good person doesn't get you loved. It gets you used.
13. Don't be afraid of losing people, be afraid of losing yourself by trying to please everyone around you.
14. Keep your move private. Don't announce it until it's SEALED! Premature announcements attract bad spirits. Best thing you can do is stop telling people what's going on in your life.
15. For the sake of your mental health don't love too hard, therapy sessions are expensive. Also, marry when you're ready, not when you're lonely.
16. Your thoughts are very powerful, make them positive.
17. Social media will make you envy someone you should actually pity.
18. Nobody owes you anything on your birthday, learn to save money and spoil yourself.
19. That move you're scared to make might just be the one that changes everything. Do it. Move.

21. No matter how thirsty you are, there are some people you should never ask for water.
22. Add value to your life, learn a skill, develop yourself.
23. Never love someone to the point where you no longer mind them hurting you.
24. You are your own best friend. Never ever, put yourself down.
25. Sometimes people come back in your life just to check if you're still ******.
26. The sooner you figure out which chairs don't belong at your table, the more peaceful your meals become.
27. If you want to run, first you must learn to walk. Yes, the dreams are big, but you have to start somewhere, and doing something is better than nothing at all. Start small, stay consistent and watch it get bigger.
28. Before spending money on someone else, make sure your family is good.
29. What comes easy, won't last. What lasts, won't come easy.
30. Normalize lying to people who ask you lots of questions about your personal life.
31. One day you'll test HIV positive because of forgiving cheating partners.
32. Some Ex's need to understand that even if we hear they now drive a plane or own the world, we will never regret leaving them.
33. Avoid peer pressure.
34. Do not abuse and kill women. Respect yourself.
35. Not everyone at your work place is your friend.
