Choose What You Fight.

..

I once met a very successful business woman and I asked her to share her secret with me. 

She smiled and said to me.. 
I started succeeding when I started leaving small fights for small fighters. 
I stopped fighting those who gossiped about me...
I stopped fighting over unnecessary issues with my spouse...
I stopped fighting for attention...
I stopped fighting to meet up with public expectation...
I left such fights for those who have nothing else to fight...

“And I started fighting for my vision, my dreams, my ideas and my destiny. Then I started winning big".

That was the day I gave up on small fights.
Some fights are not worth your time.

Fight to make your visions and dreams come alive!
Fight the good fight of faith! 
Fight for your destiny not for your ego!

Entrepreneurs shouldn’t have time for unnecessary fights!
Visionaries don’t cluster their mind with nonsense bickering!

Always ask, what is this fight adding to my destiny, my goal, my progress? 

Choose what you want.

I Wept After Reading This Judge's Sentence On A 15 Year Old Boy

... _Very Thought Provoking_ This was a fifteen year old boy.... He was caught stealing bread from a store. On trying to escape from the hold of the guard, a shelf of the store was also broken. *The judge heard the crime and asked the boy, “Did you really steal something, a loaf of bread and cheese?”* The boy responded by looking down.;- “Yes.” Judge: - “Why?” Boy: - “I needed it.” Judge: - “Couldn't you have bought?” Boy: - “There was no money.” Judge: - “Take it from the family.” Boy: - “There is only a mother in the house. Sick and unemployed, Bread and Cheese were also stolen for the same.” Judge: - “You don't do anything?” Boy: - “Used to wash a car. When I took a day off to take care of my mother, I was fired.” Judge: - “Don’t you ask someone for help?” Boy: - “Had left the house since morning, went to about fifty (50) people, but no help; so, I decided to take this step at the very end.” When the arguments ended, the judge began to pronounce the verdict; ... “the theft a...

Which Way Forward, Ospoly?

  In 2019, as I stepped foot on the soil of Osun State Polytechnic, Iree, for my Higher National Diploma, I felt like the happiest guy on earth. It was a homecoming for me to experience education in my state. The beautiful campus entrance gave me goosebumps, and the motto "Excellence In Character and Technology" reignited my spirit of determination. I told myself I wanted to do things differently here. Like every new student, I started my journey strongly, focusing on what mattered and ignoring what didn't. I adapted to every situation along the way. The turning point came during my first Continuous Assessment Test. I could hear a voice loudly within the four walls of PLT1: 'If you don't have the handout, you should leave the class,' Oga said. I couldn't immediately figure out what was going on. We all moved out, and surprisingly, the majority were students who hadn't completed their National Diploma at OSPOLY. It was strange! I kept laughing, but befo...

Wilderness Of Joy

  Wilderness Of Joy Mixed emotions managing thoughts, The good and bad days in our imagination, In the wilderness of dreams, Comes the hope for joy. Blind pets working in the dark, Lightning of joy sparking at night, In the wilderness of careers, Comes the hope for success. Walking down the street of hope, Two friends look like kings in their homes, In the wilderness of hope, Comes the imagination for hope.
