WHY STAND IN THE LINE WHEN YOU CAN STAND OUT?

Every Tom, Dick, and Harry was born with a purpose. As you sit in your room watching television, as you leave your home every blessed day early in the morning in your quest to impress your boss, and all that tiresome schedule of yours everyday just to impress people around you. 
The funny thing is that your schedule remains the same everyday that you forget about yourself. 
You forget that you were created with different Characteristics as compared to others around. You forget that you were born on a different day, given a different name to distinguish you from others. You forget that you could do some amazing things with the talent that God has given you and yet everyday you follow the same trend as everyone else. Just because she's in school, I also want to be in school, just because he's a singer, I also want to become a singer , just because , he's into that business I also want to do same. 
When on earth are you going to stop the copy work and do things on your own? When on earth are you going to be you ? When on earth are you going to be who you were born to be and stop impressing others?
Some say that if you do not build your dream then someone else would hire you to build theirs and that is a bare fact. Day in day out we remain in the same race trying to impress people we work for when we have what It takes to be bosses of our own. When we have what it takes to employ others yet we choose to be employed and treated as slaves. 
I put it to you today that God has planned something big for you. Your destiny today rests in your hands. You have to take that opportunity that comes your way. You have to put away that attitude of fear. Get out of that chair of laziness, that chair of fear, that chair of indecision , that chair of I can't do it, that chair of what if I do not succeed and sit in the chair of self confidence , sit in the chair of I can do it , the chair of hardwork, the chair of being firm in your decisions, the chair of yes I'm going to succeed, yes im going to win, the chair of persistence, the chair of determination, the chair of perseverance and above all let God take the wheel, I know you can do it , I know you're a winner, I know you can get to the Acme and truly tell the world what you're made of.
Tell yourself today that if Obama made it then I'll make it , if Sarkodie made it then I'll make it , if Nkrumah made it then I'll make it, if Chief moomen made it then I'll make it, if Kofi Annan made it then I'll make it, if Asamoah Gyan and Castro made it then I'll make it , if my own big brothers Gombilla and Don Sigli are making it then I'll make it. Program yourself for success and success will be yours. You're an extraordinary being. Let no one deceive you by leading you onto the wrong path because today I ask you WHY STAND IN THE LINE, WHEN 👉YOU CAN STAND OUT?

FALLING AND RISING AGAIN GIVES YOU A HIGHER CHANCE OF WINNING.

There's a vast difference between failing and failure. Now remember that failing does not automatically make you a failure but failing and refusing to rise again makes you a failure. 
When I was in SHS I was always motivated by the words of my school father, the boys prefect at the time and he always said that Perseverance doesn't kill you but makes you stronger. 
At first I thought it was a joke until I lost my first election on campus. There I realised I had to do something to redeem my stance. 
I did my home work well and bounced back. My good friend out there, did you fail that job interview? Did you get an F in core maths or Int Sci? Did he/she say no to you? Did you lose the lottery? Did you lose your chance on going into the university because you were not pick by the university as a worthy material? Did you lose the contest? If your answer is yes, then what are you doing now. It saddens my heart to see a lot of people out there for the sake of the above reasons make their lives hell. And so what if you failed, and so what if you lost , and so what if you were not selected, and so what if you did not win, and so what if she said no. 
You were born to be a great person. Take responsibility. Get up again and fight for what's yours. There are people out there who had Fs but are sitting the Nov Dec exam to prove Waec wrong, there are people out there who have not stop applying for jobs because they failed the first interview, there are people out there who still go to the lotto kiosk down the street to stake their numbers, there are people out there who are still applying for universities though they've been dropped severally, there are people who still take part in competitions after losing a thousand times. Why can't you do same ? Why can't you get out of that chair that's pulling you back , be on your feet, and go to battle for what's rightly yours. The moment you tell yourself I've had enough of it all is when you are qualified to be called a failure. 
One reason I admire people who are repeated in class and they stay back in school to learn is that most of them become better than the others who met them in class. Not because they have an upper hand but because they're super motivated to learn. 
There are people out there who have started Senior High school all over again to better their grades. So tell me what excuse do you have to stay back at home to lazy about because you failed the exam. What excuse do you have to stay back at home because you did not qualify. If you fail to make it through for the first time means that God is giving you the opportunity to go back home, do your homework well and try again. Remember that the road to success is not an easy one, you will come across several challenges and amongst them is failing. Do you know how many times,  The late president Mills ran for elections but lost, did he stop there? No, he kept on trying until he finally won. Even the famous Micheal Jordan failed on several times and these are his own words As Jordan puts it, “I have missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I have lost almost 300 games. On 26 occasions I have been entrusted to take the game winning shot, and I missed. I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.
 Is it just Micheal Jordan alone? let's hear what the inventor of the light bulb has to say When asked about the many thousands of failures he had when trying to create the light-bulb he famously said, “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”  But there is even more to it than that.  As a child he was thought to be dumb and told that he would never be a success by many of his teachers, because his mind would often wander in class.
You have every opportunity in this world to try a second time. Do not let you first misfortune hinder you from trying again because the moment you say I've had enough and I'll not try again, you are qualified to be called a failure but the moment you say I've had enough of loosing, I'm going to win, I'm a winner, I will win, infact I have won in advance, then put those words into action, do as required and trust me you will win. Your life will never be the same. Forget about the mockery, forget about the shame, forget about the insults and the laughter for those same people who do it , will one day fall at your feet for help. Mahatma Ghandi said " first they ignore you, then they laugh at you , then they fight you , then you win". Do not let them discourage you for you are a winner. Tell yourself now that I am a winner for I have won the battle already. It doesn't matter how many times you fall. What matters most is that you win and not how many times you fail.

Fear

A lot of us out there fail on several counts because of FEAR. 
First, the fear of failure and second the fear of success. 
What if I try and I fail or I do not become successful? 
What if I try and win and I'm not able to control my success or deliver as promised? What if ?what if? What if ? Is the question you keep asking yourself from dusk to dawn. 
Have you tried ? Have you taken the bold step? Have you taken the risk ? NO!!! yet you sit there and you want to win. Until you leave that lazy chair of fear and take that bold step you will continue to remain where you are until Jesus comes back from Heaven, and who knows if he's going to come any soon.  My good friend out there remember that " Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate, our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure ". From now tell yourself you'll leave that chair and you will reach the acme of success. Have a blessed day.

UNEMPLOYMENT AND THE GHANAIAN YOUTH.

Everyday I hear a lot of the youth complain that there are no jobs and that the system is so hard for them to even make a living not to talk of being able to afford two squared meal a day. Its their right to complain so far as they are entitled to their freedom of speech and expression. 
Whenever they complain, the elderly tell them ohh you the you youth of today are lazy and you do not look for jobs yet you complain, you are not hardworking unlike our time.
After I hear this I ask myself, what about those guys out there in our lorry stations and markets who are always on the move, carrying peoples load just to get something small yet what they earn at the end of the day cannot even carter for the mornings meal. Are they lazy and not hardworking?What about those energetic young men in our villages who are always in the farm under the scotching striving hard to feed the Nation yet the rains never come. Are they also lazy and not hardworking? What about our mothers and sisters who leave the comfort of their homes to work in chop bars, wash the cloths and clean the houses of so called rich people, sit,stand and walk in the hot sun just to get something small from the sale of sachet water,tomatoes and what have you just to feed the younger ones at home. Are they also lazy and not hardworking? What of that school boy or girl, who burns the midnight candles just to pass the exam and be able to fit in society someday as a medical doctor or lawyer or teacher or a business man but is not granted admission even after making the good grades just because he/she has no protocol and it renders the person a drop out and a jobless one for that matter. Is this person also lazy and not hardworking?What about the brilliant beautiful student who refuses to sleep with the lecturer for a pass when she knows what she is made of? What about the female graduate who came out with a first class and also does not get any job to do just because, she refused to sleep with the boss to be granted a job. Is this person also lazy and not hardworking?
So now, is the unemployment among the youth as a result of laziness or as a result of the attitude of people in authority? 
Fellow Ghanaians out there. I believe that the time has come for us to put an end to higher rate of favoritism and nepotism, bribery and corruption and the negative attitudes we possess in our country and give to Cesar what belongs to Cesar to make head way. We must put an end to awarding of contracts for developmental projects to people just because we have a relationship with them and are are going to be given a percentage of the money that is earned from the contract but rather award contracts to selfless people who are going to do the work as demanded of them with all their hearts and minds.We must also put an end to sleeping with people before we give them jobs even when they have the requirements of the job.We must put an end to diverting funds meant for the development of our communities into our pockets and our protruding stomachs
This should be the time when we call a spade a spade and not give it other names when others are ignorant of it. 
This should be the time that red should be called red and black black.The time when we must love our neighbors as ourselves and not only think about our families.The time when people with the best grades are given admission to read courses that they are qualified to read in schools. The time when we should all see ourselves as one people with one culture, one identity and one destiny. The time when there is no difference between NDC and NPP, CPP and PNC, MUSLIM and CHRISTIAN, because if we really want our NATION GHANA to stand on its feet again, we must be together just like the broom and work together just like that ants and not just think about today but think about what the future holds for the generations yet unborn. I HAVE A DREAM THAT SOMEDAY, MY COUNTRY, YOUR COUNTRY, HIS COUNTRY, HER COUNTRY, THEIR COUnTRY, OUR COUNTRY GHANA WILL STAND ON HER FEET AND NO AMOUNT OF NEGATIVE INFLUENCE CAN CHANGE HER. CORRUPTION MUST STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!
LETS RISE UP FUTURE LEADERS AND PUT GHANA BACK ON HER FEET. THIS TIME IS OUR TIME.
GOD BLESS OUR HOMELAND GHANA.

THE HAMMER

THE HAMMER
Designed to hit nails was what
the
hammer was created to do
right? For instance, the hammer is left
in the tool
box day in day out
without being used. It doesn’t care.
Wondering
why? Because it is lifeless.
Now imagine a similar hammer with a
life and self-consciousness in the same
tool box always. The hammer will not
feel okay but
does not know what
exactly the problem is, but feels
something is not
right.
Then one day someone takes the hammer
out of the
box to break some branches
for firewood. The hammer becomes
excited he`s
been brought out of the dark
tool box and being used for some work.
But the
unfortunate thing is that
after all this has been done, the hammer
still feels
dissatisfied because
he feels something is still missing.
In subsequent days, the same hammer is
used for
other purposes yet feels
excited, dissatisfied and still expecting
more.
Suddenly, he is picked up
and used to hit a nail. Wow, the hammer
becomes
extremely happy and very
satisfied. Wonder why? Because he now
understands the purpose for which he
was created and that is to hit nails. Any
other
things that he did in the
past were limited in comparison but
after been used
to hit a nail just
once, he came to realise what he had
been looking
for all that while.
Have you ever thought of what your
purpose in life
is? Have you ever
wondered what you were created for? If
you
haven’t, then let me put it
across to you that we were created for
the purpose
of worship and communion
with God. Being in communion with God
is like
being in a relationship with
God and that’s the best of relationships
because it is
the only
relationship that can get us where we
are headed
safely. It is the only
relationship that can give us true
satisfaction
because without God we can
never get true satisfaction.
Most of us may have gone through tough
times,
grown up the hard way
struggling to make ends meet yet
nothing
productive comes of our struggle,
not because we have not given it our
best shots but
because we have not
realised our ultimate purpose in life.
There are
times when we are very
happy because of the wonderful and
colourful
experiences we have but we are
still dissatisfied because we have not
hit the nail
yet.
As I earlier said, we might have been
through a lot
but yet not succeeded.
It is because we have not realised what
we were
ultimately designed for.
Whenever we keep God away or out of
our lives, we
never get true happiness
even after trying to find fulfilment in
other aspects
of life.
Just like the hammer, we keep hitting
tree
branches, and concrete slabs
always thinking that the more we do it,
we will get
answers to our
problems, forgetting that we do it just
for the fun of
it and our problems
are never solved. Have you ever
wondered why?
The greatest desire we should ever have
is to have a
communion with God.
Why? Because it is our principal purpose
in life.
That is what we were
created for. Take note that with God all
things are
possible and remember
too that God never forsakes his
servants.
As you go to bed every night, ask
yourself, “Have I
hit the nail?”. Don’t
run after worldly things because you
met them here
and you will leave them
here. We shall be called to answer
questions
someday sooner or later
neither you nor I know when. Let your
God be your
GUIDE.
Thank you for reading and May the Good
Lord
continue to bless you.

Mine is one of yours

MINE IS ONE OF YOURS
It has always been with the youth of today to have
what their colleagues
have. Yet some of them seem to forget that all
fingers are not equal and
not all that glitters is gold. Always having the desire
to have a quality
or possession that someone else has makes you copy
and forces you to become
what you are not. This fever of always having what
someone owns has led
most of the young girls of today to their early doom.
Most of them die at
very young ages not because they are knocked
down by cars or die in their
sleep but they become mentally paralyzed for life.
Did I just say mentally
paralyzed? Yes, mentally paralyzed through
mockery, rejection, poverty, shame,
destructed education, and lack of focus.
Surprisingly, this happens among ladies particularly.
For instance Ama has
a nice hand bag which Afia does not have. Now if
you should go further, you
will realise Ama`s mother bought her the bag but
since Afia`s is from a
poor background and her mum can’t afford the bag.
Afia looks for a
boyfriend or better still a sugar daddy that can cater
for her needs.
Similarly, if Kofi has a nice wrist watch bought for
him by his father and
his friend Kwame sees it, obviously, he would wish
to have a similar watch,
but it’s quite unfortunate Kwame can’t afford it
neither can his parents,
he also has to resort to having a sugar mummy to
shower him with expensive
gifts.
One may ask, are they given these gifts for free?
The answer is very short
and simple, no. Do you think people these days run
charity foundations for
free? In fact, a big No. No one in this our present
world does anything for
free. That is to say, that the gifts these so called
sugar mummy’s and
daddy’s lavish on these innocent children are not
for free. They will
surely have to pay for them. How is the question?
How? In kind of course
.They do not need your money for anything because
there is no way I will
buy hair food from someone with a bald head. The
person showers you with a
lot of money and for that matter needs your money
for nothing.
Payment in kind? What kind of payment is that?
Yes, it’s quite obvious that
what a sugar daddy or mummy would want from
you is sex, the person needs
you to satisfy his/her sexual desires and so would
do anything just to get
you in his/her bed. What happens afterwards? The
burden is left for you to
carry. Whatever the burden, they care less. Who
then is to blame if you
came out free or not? Is it your father, your mother,
the so called sugar
daddy/mummy, your friend who`s nice handbag or
wrist watch you envied so
much or your insatiable and ungrateful self? That’s
a big question right?
Well the answer is left to you. Either end up
acquiring a sexually
transmitted infection or you get pregnant at a very
young age. Yes, teenage
pregnancy. The sad thing is that, the outcome of
these things mostly has a
hunting repercussion and a clear reflection on
ladies. Guys might just go
scot free but a pregnant teenage girl will obviously
be seen because in the
long run, you will have a protruding stomach that
will be seen by all.
Imaging what happens to you after you have
acquired HIV/AIDS, gonorrhoea
,syphilis, hepatitis, the fresher’s gentleman in town
EBOLA or you get
pregnant while a teenager still in school. What do
you think will happen to
you?
Society will be unfair to you until eternity. You
become an outcast in your
own home. You are rejected by all, even the same
people you did it with who
were so fortunate to come out free. You thought you
would always go scot
free but failed to remember that every day for thief,
one day for master.
Rejection is one thing that can paralyze you
mentally for life; it can make
your whole life miserable. At times you feel like
dying, you feel like all
is lost, you feel like God is being unfair to you, but
all I will say is
you called the shots and so you must bear the
consequences’.
Mockery is obviously one thing you cannot run
away from when you find
yourself in any of the above situations. Imaging you
are diagnosed HIV/AIDS
positive or tested to be pregnant and in few months’
time you have a
protruding belly with a missing father and people in
your community find
out. Tell me what you think will happen. All fingers
will point at you,
being it black fingers, fair coloured ones, straights
ones, bent ones, and
what have you, not because you were the unlucky
one, not because you were a
victim of circumstance but you asked for it.
You drop out of school, because you have to take
care of yourself and your
baby. You have to make ends meet. You have no
father or mother though
mother might still sneak out with some cassava for
you without father’s
knowledge because our mothers will always do
anything for us even if we let
them down. Such is nature. The future is
jeopardized, no school, no work,
no family, no friends. How pathetic it is. Poverty
becomes the order of
your day. You may resort to selling sachet water in
the streets of Accra or
Kejetia in Kumasi. Ask yourself how risky it is and
tell me if you were
ready to go through this before you gave in to him.
You lose complete focus
and that is what I call your doom, your mental
paralysis.
Now there are two options you are left with. Either
to get rid of the
pregnancy or give birth to the baby. Imagine you
attempt aborting and you
die, what message have you for God. That’s just one.
Your child is born into this world, he gets no formal
education because
mummy has no money and no one is willing to help.
He starts selling water
on the streets to make ends meets, from there he
starts making friends and
is gradually becoming a member of a gang
indirectly, before you realise, he
has started killing innocent people and making
away with their belongings.
In the case of a female, she may choose to become a
“Night rider” or
prostitute as it’s popularly known to be. She either
acquires STI`s or
follows the footsteps of her mother by also
becoming pregnant and the race
continues in that order. What contribution have you
made towards building
the nation? Nothing, you just added to the burden
of the Nation, by
producing potential armed robbers, prostitutes,
causing an increase in
streetism. The Nation continues to wallow in abject
poverty not because the
government is not working but because you and
people of your kind have
chosen to pull down every piece of brick we put on
the foundation, and then
we ask ourselves, where are we headed as a
Nation?
Before I conclude, I would like to tell all the young
ladies out there that
you shouldn’t wait for someone to tell you, “You are
beautiful” before you
know you are beautiful. Take this from me, that no
matter how you are, and
where you come from as a lady, there is surely one
thing that makes you
unique. Every lady is special; don’t destroy your life
by going after rich
men. Don’t envy people because your time may just
be around the corner. Be
satisfied with what you have, for all you know
someone somewhere might be
proud of you just the way you are. Wait for Gods
time because it is always
the best. Be prayerful, work hard and set goals for
yourselves that even
the strongest men would never think of.
Irresponsible men are on the rise;
watch out for them, for they will always destroy
your future. No good man
will ask for your pride before helping you. Besides,
why do you need
someone’s help? Help yourself and God will help
you. Prayer is very
essential in all that you endeavour. Don’t let people
apportion blame on
you for the woes of the Nation. The choice is yours
If it so happens that you find yourself in any of the
situations above, tell
yourself that all is not lost, you started the battle
and you must end it.
Not just ending the battle, but ending is well and
becoming successful.
Challenges are like grasses on the pathway, do
away with them and the rode
becomes good for usage. God never forsakes his
servants so call on him in times
of need and he will listen to you and help you and
remember that *yours is
never one of hers” but rather yours is yours and
hers is hers. Thank you
very much and may God bless you.
