Success Stimulants

Photo Credit: The Odyssey Online Happiness – a sacred word craved by so many, appears to be felt by a few.   A feeling that is everyone’s right but not everyone’s possession. A hidden gem with the potential to set lives aglow. Happiness is also an attitude. It is an algorithm that can only be encoded/decoded by qualified programmers. It is like a world, a huge universe ironically with few inhabitants. Happiness is a skill, only for the wise.

Sometimes last week around Ikeja GRA axis, I saw a guy with this inscription on his T-shirt ' Do not wait for your future, create it.'  The deep meaning of these words didn’t sink in and I casually waved it off. Recently, I had a chat with a friend and she shared a picture of a lovely painting of the popular Beauty and the Beast story with me. I was pretty astonished – not at the quality of the painting – but at the fact that she has so much talent than I knew. I have always known her flair for artworks – she’s also a budding poet! But I never thought she is that blessed. So I inquired of her, “What else do you do that I do not know of?” She replied, “I’m a jack of all trade and master of none”. Then I advised her to pick one of her supposed numerous talents and groom herself on it.   Her response threw me aback, “I need a sign, a writing in the cloud… a letter from the Pope.” Photo Credit: motivationgrid.com
