“Success Is Not Overnight Achievement” — Didi-Omah Augustine

Success is not magic. Success is not overnight achievement. Success is not praying and waiting scheme. Success is doing the things today others will not do, to get the things tomorrow others will not have. Executive. Success is achieved by doing that right tasks that seem boring consistently, quietly, intentionally, and keeping the faith alive.

Most people want growth but can't pay the price for growth. Most people want wealth but can't pay for it. Because everything on earth has prices, life is a marketplace. Until you pay for it, you cannot have it. Same to success. Opportunities are found in people's complaints, doacWeb, you know today is out of people's complaints. 

Learnt website programming, spend late night sleeps, burned data, study continuously, did deep researches, study marketing and advertising, study leadership and management, connected with right people, deny irrelevant meetings, shun rubbish discussions. Now you are seeing the person at the top, you think it is free. Nothing is free in this world, even your way to heaven — you must pay for it by working out your salvation in Christ Jesus. Is in the Bible. Executive.

Every star you see in any field of sports pay the price, and that price is the sacrifice. There is no star without a scar, and that scar is the sacrifice. You admire great talents today, those persons of talents you admired — are formed by high price, they paid the price. Everyone wants to fly private jet, everyone wants to live in big house, everyone wants to be billionaire. But it is the price that chase them away, it is the price that scares them. You must pay the price unless you won't have it!

To achieve success; you must define your type of success. Seek God first — walk with Adonay in obedience and by faith. Follow those that through patience and faith obtained the success. You must follow their paths, draft out your steps from theirs — walk accordingly. Because you only get success from following the footsteps of those that have obtained the type of success you desired. Executive.

For you to become giant, you must follow the steps of giants. You cannot follow foolish people and expect to be wise. Even the Bible have already told us, that out of company of wise counselors one becomes wise. You want to be giant, you must leap like them because giant doesn't walk. I want to be a successful blogger, I followed Linda Ifeoma Ikeji specifically, but I drafted out my paths from knowledge of over seven successful bloggers I was privileged to study. 

After more than six months of my professional blogging, I secured MTN shares at 19 years old. Not magic, it was efforts paid. Most bloggers are still struggling but it took me not less than a year of professional blogging to mount on big income and at 19, I became shareholder at MTN Nigeria. Because I have studied and prepared myself, so when the opportunity came I entered in without wasting. Just like the five wise virgins of Jesus Christ parable.

I started spreading my investments to other portfolios and government owned investments. I want to be so wealthy, I followed Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Solomon (of the Bible); and I studied billionaires in various fields and around the world including Aliko Dangote and Warren Buffett — drafted out paths and steps to get there. Not guess work, knowledge approach strategies that works. And you can see the handwriting in my business and investment. To be successful, you must pay the right price to get it!
