ONCE YOU MAKE YOURSELF BETTER, YOU DON'T BEG FOR OPPORTUNITIES

A seed first breaks in the dark underground, before germinating into a new plant out under the sun light.

The seed bears the cold and darkness, breaks in the cold and darkness underneath — then in the process of time — spring up a new plant, to see the light of the sun, above the ground.

The plant keep growing, growing fast, facing the wind, the rain, the soil texture, the temperature, the weather — but it keep shinning and being evergreen.

Because man breaks your heart, does not make you useless; does not make life breaking on you, beautiful damsel — with a good mindset, it spring a new beginning in you.

The pains of today is not worthy to be compared with the greater glory, to be establish in me, through me, and for me. (Romans 8 vs. 18).

You ask her for relationship, she said NO. And you want to keep pushing, you seem frustrated — pray to Adonay, the creator, let him know your heart. 

This I tell you, NO, is not the answer in you not getting married. NO means Next Opportunity! Move on.

You write business proposals, investors rejected you — you seek a job in a company, you were rejected.

Don't feel bad, you are not a failure. Failure is an event, and not a person — go read biography of the founder of Canva, and her product, Canva. You will see rejections was not one by investors.

JK Rowlings was rejected over ten times by publishers, she never give up — her "Harry Potter" was a hit and ranked her multimillion in net worth.

Bill Gates was put out of school, by the school management. Because he believes in himself, he worked on himself, now he did not just found, Microsoft. He was the wealthest man for twelve good years, back to back.

Read biographies of great people, you will see the pains, you will get courage to push forward. Jesus Christ was crucified by the same people, that shouted "Hosanna in the highest". 

Ahhh! Why are you feeling down, you didn't go to the university. The founder of Roll Royce, did not go to school, yet he founded the car manufacturing industry, that worth billions in capitalization.

So many failures I experienced. Over time failures stop being my enemy... It became my fuel!

Didi-Omah Augustine Chinazaekpere, is not a programming genius, he did not even know how to build a standard multi-media website. He is the founder of doacWeb; African biggest website in over 180 territories and countries —now a global empire.

See rejection as redirection. The END is not the end, it is "Efforts Never Dies". If you fail, never gives up, because FAIL means "First Attempt In Learning". So be positive! Be different.

Because you are failing, does mean you are a failure. Failure is an event, and not a person, it must occurs, when you are walking to success. 

Your business is crashing, you want to give up. Your product is not entering targeted markets, your project is collapsing. Wait! Have you study Elon Musk and SpaceX, how many rockets lost during the process, how much money lost during the failures. 

Not one failure, not two failures! You are powerful, you are enough to get where you want to be.

Walt Disney, was sacked from a newspaper company, saying he lack creativity. He wept, he felt down casted — that fuelled him, he used their reason for firing him, "lack of creativity". 

He founded Walt Disney Animation, a now global animation company, owners of Mickey mouse, Snow white, Lion King, Barbie, etc.

From sacked, to a big star producer. When you truly want something, there are no excuses — only choices.

I quoted: Nothing is hard to achieve, is just that you lack the resources to achieve that thing. If you really want to achieve it, seek, ask, and get the right resources needed to achieve it. Then implement it, take action, and see you achieving that target with time, energy; enjoy the process, don't jump.

Because they fired you from a company, you put all your energy, you even created the product that put the company into profitability. You even created the company.

Executive, let me tell you, have you read when Apple Inc. fired Steve Jobs, he is the founder of the company, yet they fired him. During the era, he kept pushing, not fighting to get the company, like foolish person.

He created Pixar, yes the animation company, that created Toy Story and more cartoons. Go and study.

What about the founder of DreamWorks, he was the creator of Lion King, and Little Mermaid of Disney animations. He slept in the studio, to make sure this cartoons take up!

He love creating animations. On the point to get promoted, he was fired. Ahhh! If it is you, you will be fighting back — waste of energy.

He move to found DreamWorks, the company that created Shrek, my one time favourite cartoon with Ice Age.

Let me tell you the truth, even if you take doacWeb from me, as far Adonay is still speaking to me, I will venture into another business, it may take time, because time is a process.

I will still be wealthy and global. Because your prosperity is in you, my prosperity is in me. Accept the Lord tell me, to face the pain and die — then you have win.

But if Adonay, say to me, build something — who are you to stop me?

Study biographies, you need faith, courage, love, knowledge, wisdom and an understanding heart — you must seek God first and always!

Silence with goodwill is a great weapon. Wisdom is more stronger than weapons of war.

They are shaming you because of your conditions, body size, appearance — you are great, you are beautiful my dear, you are handsome my king. 

Sometimes the biggest breakthrough, comes from the big setbacks. Study biographies of great and successful people — if you want to be successful; don't just know, execute with action, execution is everything. Walk therein the paths, you shall have good success.

I have no sponsor to take me to university. Hear this! Success does not require a four year degree. 

Your assets is the quality of your brain. Not in physical possessions and acquisitions.

What makes you great and excellent in nature? Is the quality of investment, of time, resources, and energy on yourself.

Investment of time, resources, and energy in building yourself — that makes you great in life. 

Get more knowledge, updated insights in your field, so you can stand out, and not be equally yoked with others.

Your greatest assets on earth in human race is knowledge. Knowledge gives you power, knowledge preserve you from perishing, you get this from education.

If you don't sit down today, you can not stand out tomorrow. What takes you ahead, is what is in your head.

You can't give out what you don't have. Seek wisdom, get knowledge and have understanding in heart.

Once you make yourself better, you don't beg for opportunities.
