To be fruitful you must possess
your possession, and set a target. Life is like a football tournament in which
each teams has a particular aim and objective. This target is what is called GOAL!!!
According to Brian Tracy, Goals are the fuel in the furnace of achievement.
What are the goals you set for
your future? I want you to realize that a life that fails to perform his
responsibility will end up being ridiculed. What are your wishes and
potentials?
Life is made up of three wishes,
“the dream of yesterday, “the reality of today”, and “the hope
of tomorrow”. Out of the 3 wishes, the one you have control on is the
reality of today. The ways you utilize your present determine your later life.
Plan your life as if you will live for additional two hundred years but live
your life as if you will die tomorrow. If you plan and live your lives daily in
that way, you will find this life simple as “ABC”. For a testimony to occur in
your career, academics, finance, family, marital, spiritual and other areas of
your life, you must be ready to pay the price and undergo the test ahead. Do
not tie your fate to luck but work harder to reach your goals.
The parable of the Talents in the
book of Matthew 25: 14-30 tells us of a servant that failed to utilise the
talent his lord gave to him. His lord expected him to utilise the talent
positively to gain additional one. He underestimated the talent given to him;
you know what ended the parable? The talent was taken away from him and was
given to a diligent and hardworking person. The thought of the lazy servant was
that the one talent given to him by his master was too small for him to target
a goal.
“For unto every one that has shall more be given,
and he shall have abundance: but from him that has not shall be taken away even
that which he has” – Jesus Christ (Matthew 25:29). May our talents
not be taken away from us.
We are expected to utilise our
talents and use them for things that will glorify the name of God and not
otherwise.
You will not know the true value
of the 1 kobo in your bank account until you are unable to withdraw your
#999.99 in an ATM that can only dispense a minimum of #1,000.
You think 0.1 is surely insignificant? Then go to the University of Ibadan and ask, what differentiate an Upper Class Student with a CGPA of 5.9 and a First Class Student with that of 6.0? I’m sure you will get the right answer.
You think 1 mark isn't such a big deal? Then go and ask a final-year student who scored 39 in a compulsory course. Did your mind just whisper an extra year/ semester?
You think 1 second doesn't count? Then, how long does it take for death to perform his duty? Millisecond!
You think 1 goal is nothing spectacular? Then you will have to do research on many heartbroken matches/games that have separated a champion from the runner up with just a goal difference.
| Go for Goals |
Then go and ask a person facing murder trial in a court but just narrowly escaped execution judgement by a single jury vote.
"Most "impossible" goals can be met simply by breaking them down into bite size chunks, writing them down, believing them, and then going full speed ahead as if they were routine."
- Don Lancaster
No matter the pressure you are
encountering presently, sooner or later, you will breakthrough. Please, I want
you to know that the greatest of miracles is that you need not to be tomorrow
what you are today, that is, you need not to procrastinate but can improve if
you make use of the potential implanted in you by God. No matter how small it
is, we are all loaded with one talent or the other, do not live your given gift
or talent from God hidden, locate yours today and Go for Goals!!!
