You were born into this world on a certain date, time and place. You were given a certain talent, skill, ability and capability. Above all you were given a unique identity and destiny.
 
So you begin the journey of life on a quest to find your purpose and mission to identify your success and great fortune. You start digging your hole to find your gold. But some of your friends or family found their treasures and diamonds earlier in life than you. They began to show off and celebrate whiles you were still digging and finding nothing. They continued to tease you, make fun of you and you feel like you are a failure and a loser.
 
1. When this happens some of us give up entirely and say "am not good and I can't do anything great, look at my friends and look at me." Then you give up and start living without aim or care. You begin to live in despair and disappointment, you become unfulfilled and unhappy.
 
2. Some of us leave our holes and jump into the holes of our friends and start digging there. What this means is that: you lose focus on what you were given, you copy others, you live their lives, you pretend to be someone who you are not, all because you also want to be like them and have what they also have.
 
But sometimes what we were given is bigger, better and greater than that of our friends. And that is why it's taking time and it's not showing up because great things are not easy to find, they are not ordinary or common. Look at the picture above, see the treasure that was waiting for the other guy, it's bigger, brighter and better. But he lost focus and tried to go after what does not exist and what does not belong to him, in the end he lost his treasure that was waiting for him.
 
Today I want to tell you, I love you and I know how bad life is treating you now. But I want you to know difficult roads leads to beautiful destinations. Stay focus on your talents, family, spouse, career, dream and goal.
All you have to do is to:
F: Follow
O: One
C: Course
U: Until
S: Success
 
Because when you keep trying, you will come out flying and soon you too will be smiling. Don't give up on yourself, because you a star waiting to shine.
