WHAT DO YOU DESIRE?
Yesterday, after I had finished editing a video for my wife, she loved it so much she looked at me and said, "what would I do without you?"
So romantic, right?
Guess my reply?
I said, "this is why any time I tell you we need to buy this video gear or that video/photo equipment, you should never complain" haha.
I know!
My own reply was not romantic.
But I just had to chip that in at that moment. (LOL).

See, one of the major ingredients to fulfilling purpose is your desire to constantly improve and grow.
You cannot afford to always live off yesterday's success. Yesterday is gone, it's a new day! Grow with each passing day.
See, when I started making my videos, I didn't have anything other than my phone.
I would place my phone on a pile of books and make it lean against another pile of books. Those were my tripod then.
Whilst doing this, I kept on casting the vision of where we're headed to my wife - the kind of lens I want us to buy, the type of microphone, the type of DSLR camera, etc.
She would scream when she hears the price of some of them. When I told her we would be buying a Microphone for $300+ the other day, she screamed, and said, "just a microphone?!" lol.
But guess what, today, we now have almost all those gears we used to dream of.
And Yours sincerely has not stopped envisioning. I keep mentioning the next thing in line and my wife would say, "I know you - anytime you are mentioning this thing, we are definitely getting it, it's only a matter of time".
It's more than a matter of time, it's a matter of vision.
Vision helps you to improve.
Vision helps you move out of your comfort zone.
The reason why your comfort zone is so comfortable is because you lack vision and the desire to improve.
Ask God for the vision of where He is taking you and you will soon realise, the desire to pay the price will always be there.
Today, I have over $10,000 worth of video/photography gear - THE POWER OF VISION AND IMPROVEMENT.
I have a question for you - what do you desire to improve in? How much do you really want it?
I believe in you.

Looking at my life today, some might assume I was born with a golden spoon in my mouth. They see the progress, the platforms, the opportunities, the impact—and they conclude, “He must have had it all figured out from the start.” But here’s the truth... I wasn’t born with a golden spoon. In fact, I wasn’t even born with a spoon at all. The circumstances surrounding my birth were far from rosy. My beginning was rough, humble, and almost forgettable by the standards of this world. There was nothing to suggest that I would one day stand where I stand today, speak as I speak today, or do what I do today. But I was helped. I was helped by God. That’s the only reason I’ve come this far. And that, dear friend, is why I’m writing this—to remind you that it doesn’t matter where or how you were born . Your background, no matter how limiting or disadvantaged, cannot stop God’s plan for your life. You may not have had the best education. You may have been born into poverty. You may have been rejected, neglected, abandoned or overlooked. But when God steps into your life , He rewrites the story. He is not intimidated by your limitations. In fact, He specializes in using the foolish things of this world to confound the wise. He lifts the poor from the dust and sets them among princes (Psalm 113:7-8). You don’t need a silver spoon, golden spoon, or any spoon at all. All you need is His help . My life is a testament to this truth: God still helps men. He still lifts. He still promotes. He still turns nobodies into wonders. And I believe the same will happen for you. If you will let Him, If you will trust Him, If you will surrender your life to Him… You will become a miracle. You will become a wonder. Your story will be one that generations will talk about. So here’s my charge to you: Stop disqualifying yourself based on your background. Stop underestimating what God can do through you. Stop comparing your journey with someone else’s. Instead, start seeking God’s help. Start walking in faith. Start declaring His promises over your life. Because your story—yes, YOUR story—is not over yet. In fact, it’s just beginning. You are next in line for a miracle. I believe in you!
