MURDER YOUR FEAR


In the early 2000, I was living with my grandmother. She was a farmer and Fufu seller. I hawk for her everyday. Every weekend we visit her farm to dug up Cassavas during harvest or plant in its time. It was on this farm I learn important approaches to success.






In the early 2000, I was living with my grandmother. She was a farmer and Fufu seller. I hawk for her everyday. Every weekend we visit her farm to dug up Cassavas during harvest or plant in its time. It was on this farm I learn important approaches to success.

  On the farm, there were these three stones we seat pots for cooking with firewood. The first thing I observed about these three stones is that they never fall pots if they're in relative equal heights and size. The pot will not tilt sideways nor turn upsidedown.

With these, even at young age, I realized a tree can't make a forest. Everyone needs the help of others. In fact, one must work with people of like minds, dreams and vision before anything good can work out.

Also, I compare the stones at home with the ones in the farm, and I discovered that the six stones were each on their own weighty, strong and firm. They're not feeble. They are quite a resistance against any invasion. They could withstand whatever weight the pot carries. Hence, you don't only need the support of friends but a friends of equal strength or more. Ones whom feet hold ground, and firm with their purpose in life.

  One other thing that amazes me is that I remember fearing that differ sizes of pots may break my law of stability for three stones. So I do ask my Grandma whether the smaller pots will not turn over. But every time I asked her, she returned with the same reply:

"Place it first."

Then I'll place the pot on the burning flames.

Damn! It works. That's the way it works often times. Only in few cases, it does require a small pebble or stone to hold the pot firm.

In most cases, however, it beats my expectations and works perfectly good without extra inputs. There I learn there's nothing that cannot work good unless we decided not to give it a shot.

In every facets of my life, I endeavor to place it first as my Grandma commanded. I give a push, no matter what slim chance I may seemed to have and often it just smart up with no or little add up.

I advice you too to "place it first". No matter what size or shape you hold, place your pot first.

Not trying is not winning. No input is no output. Not giving your shots is loosing it all. It may merely requires a pebble to fix the rest. Do it anyway so you won't have a regrets later.

Go be the best you can be. Remember no one is better than you.
