Challenges are meant to be defeated and not evaded

In the times that we live in today, having an easy pass is gradually becoming the norm and people are putting it on a pedestal of accomplishment

Life is meant to be challenging and also rewarding


However, the seeking of an easy pass is gradually overcoming the need for strength, skill, and experience.


This is so because many people have been sucked into the idea that the end justifies the means and so they do not need to go through the rigor of challenges of the process before achieving something, but rather they can take a shortcut and as long as they get the trophy that's all that matters


Forgetting that with challenges comes experience and strength because overcoming a challenging task or situation will require that you skill up, apply strength, or be tenacious.


This for one now becomes the benefits of the challenges, because if you skilled-up so that you can able to overcome a challenging task, then that skill remains with you and can also be employed for the same challenge in the future or even for a different challenge in another situation, also if you built strength either physically or mentally in other to overcome a certain challenge, that strength remains with you even after the challenge and can be applied to something else, the same applies for tenacity


However, if none of these traits were cultivated in other to overcome a pending challenge, then what it means is that you are still not equipped to be able to overcome that challenge in the future or another like it


If you used a shortcut or an inappropriate method to boycott the challenges in the past then you have to be ready to still use it in the future if a similar situation comes up until it gets to a point where the method will no longer work, then you will realize that you have played yourself


Life is not a bed of roses, else lilies will overrun the mountains


As I mentioned earlier, life is meant to be challenging and also rewarding, for if you do the challenging tasks then you will be deemed qualified for the rewards of achievements that follow suit


If you try to leave a life devoid of challenges then I wonder what a life you are living.


This is not to say that you should seek out suffering and bask in it, NO, it simply means that you should expect that certain things will be difficult to achieve and that you are meant to work through them and figure out a way to conquer the obstacles and win regardless.


Don't shy away from the suffering that comes your way but rather annihilate it and put it beneath you while you go for your goals


If you can always do this, you will realize that you will become unafraid of any situation and also unstoppable in the pursuit of your dreams


And as many times as you can accomplish such feats of triumph, that is as much confidence and resilience that you would have built to be able to face any future obstacle


When you live every day with the expectation to win regardless of the challenges, sooner than later you will reach the height of Magnum Opus in your character.


Thank you for stopping by.

Overcoming Procrastination

Today, I am tackling a topic that I know hits home for a lot of us— overcoming procrastination . You know that feeling, right? When you’ve got a deadline looming, a dream you’re chasing, or even just a sink full of dishes, but somehow you’re scrolling through your phone or reorganizing your sock drawer instead? Yeah, we’ve all been there. I’m going to dive deep into why we procrastinate, how it’s tied to our past experiences, and—most importantly—how we can start breaking free from it. Hopefully, it resonates with you. So, let’s break it down and get into it. What’s Really Behind Procrastination? Procrastination isn’t just about being “lazy” or “unmotivated.” I used to think it was, but the more I’ve reflected on it, the more I’ve realized it’s deeper than that. Depending on the experiences we’ve gone through, our relationship with taking action—or avoiding it—gets shaped in unique ways. It’s like our tolerance for risk, failure, or even success adjusts based on what life’s thrown at u...

You Need To Get Angry

  Why anger is good for you. Anger, even though a destructive emotion, is a required catalyst for growth. - James Ezenachi Understanding this concept will make you value anger. If you have never gotten angry with your situations and inabilities, you may never be propelled to seek growth. Many of us are where we are today because of the level of anger that we entertain. And I know, we have been trained and groomed to think and believe that anger is a bad thing, a negative emotion that we should avoid at all cost. While I understand the reason for this logical position, I also understand that perspective is everything. So, if the reason why you have been told to desist from anger and the underlying emotions is because of the possible havoc it can wreak in a person and their fellow, especially when one person feels hurt by another and they are pushed to have a revenge. Yes, for that I understand and agree. However, when I talk about anger from a different perspective, it is in the lig...

Tailor Your Skills and Gifts to Your Life's Desires

  In the journey of life, we each possess unique skills and gifts that set us apart. These talents are intrinsic to who we are, shaping our potential and guiding our paths. My suggestion that you should Tailor your skills and gifts to what you want for your life. You don't need to justify it, they are already yours, to begin with, was me trying to capture the essence of embracing and aligning our abilities with our aspirations.  I was looking to shed light on the importance of this alignment and why you should never feel the need to justify your talents to anyone. First and foremost, it's essential to recognize that your skills and gifts are inherently yours. They are part of your identity, woven into the fabric of your being. These abilities were not borrowed or taken from someone else; they are a natural extension of who you are. Therefore, you have every right to use them in a way that aligns with your vision for your life. When you tailor your skills and gifts to your pers...
