DO YOU WANT THE RYTHM OF LIFE TO WORK IN YOUR FAVOUR?

I was about 10 years old when a friend tried to teach me how to ride a bicycle.

 

From the excitement of watching my friends and other young kids in the neighbourhood ride their bicycles to the thrill of looking cool, I couldn't wait.I had visualised that day for months! 

 

I was grinning from ear to ear.

 

I was asked to settle on the bike, place both feet on the pedals, look straight ahead and pedal away!It was all fun until I started to wobble, falter and fall. 

 

My excitement started dwindling when it became apparent it was no easy feat.The toughest part was being told to look forward whilst peddling the bicycle. "Look straight, stop looking at the pedal else you will fall", he yelled severally. It looked impossible! It was very hard!

 

No, I didn't get it the first time. It took me lots of practice to eventually get it right, and that was because I never gave up.

 

Why I am sharing this with you?

 

The best things in life will require you to keep your gaze ahead! There are some things you will never attain in life without focus!

 

Too many of us are distracted by too many things, yet we want the rhythm of life to work in our favour; it's impossible.

 

Road accidents are often caused by distractions! It's dangerous to keep looking around or looking back while you drive.

 

Your effectiveness is hinged on your ability to identify and focus on your life's mission.

 

Always remember, what others are doing, and what they think about you are none of your business.

 

Keep your gaze straight. Stay focus and steady! Keep working hard, on yourself, and on your craft. You will get there in the end.

 

I believe in you.

Picture an eagle in a cage. No matter how beautiful the cage is, the eagle was not designed to live in a cage. It was designed to soar on the highest heights and mountains with courage and flair. No matter the lure of the cage, it can never surpass the freedom of the eagle soaring in all expanse of the skies in all of its glories and strength. Like the eagle trapped, too many brilliant, gifted, called individuals are trapped in the cage of careers they were not designed for. They can never command their true worth and value, they can only eat the crumbs they are being fed by their captors. The lure of salaries and pennies that will never satisfy keeps them in such cages. They would rather remain in the rat race than take the risks for their freedom and glory. The Bible says, "If the Son (Jesus) sets you free, you will be free indeed." - John 8:36 As a child of God, you can break free! You were not designed to be caged! Any job that does not give you the freedom to express your gifts, talents and calling is a cage. One of the biggest graveyards of purpose I see is this graveyard of unfulfilling careers. People get jobs only for the sake of earning, rather than fulfilling their life's calling and pursuing what matters to them. But here's the truth: The careers you were not designed for will not satisfy you. They will leave you with voids and emptiness. At the end of your career, you would lack true legacy, influence and impact. Your time to break free is now. I believe in you. Dr Samuel Ekundayo
