We all have certain devils that want to control our day-to-day drive.
You know that resounding voice you hear often that says…"You can't do this..."
...the voice that keeps telling you about your weakness but fails to uphold your strength.
The voice condemns your effort and whispers in your subconscious how clueless you have become.
This voice won't go! It would remain.
However, there is an antidote that can suppress this evil but you must feed it day and night and act as you have been instructed.
This antidote is what I call Faith.
It is the confidence that your current defeat is temporal whilst working on a plan to come out victorious.
It is the assurance that you have the capacity to withstand any pressure that comes your way.
It is the mental acceptance that there would come a time when challenges would spring forth but with tenacity, grit, and perseverance, you will overcome.
Faith is you running away from people, associations, and communities that has the capacity to whisper disbelief in your mission.
Faith is not you paying deaf ears to corrections and feedback. But you paying close attention to the source and the hidden truth behind the bearers intention.
Faith is you waking up in the morning and chasing your dreams regardless of your current circumstance.
The negative whispers you hear are the enemy of your victory.
Stay vigilant and sip from the wine of positivity and good.
Lean on the tales of those whose results challenge your reality.
Always remember, greatness comes to those who dare to be different.
See you on the next one.
