DEVELOP
YOURSELF
Every
dreamer, visionary and planner has something they are pursuing this New Year 2017, that’s why they
are who they are. A dreamer has a dream, a visionary has a vision, a planner
has a plan, a musician has a music, a poetry has a poem, an author has a written
word, a preacher has a spoken word, a comedian has a joke, and many more.
That’s what makes them who they are.
It’s
what you have to deliver to your world that makes up who you are. And I want to believe you have discovered yourself. So
if you have done that, then there is one more thing you got to do. DEVELOP YOURSELF!
Discovery
is not enough. You must be ready to develop yourself. Train yourself. It’s only
a well-developed talent that gets the full reward. The difference between two
talented people is how they develop it.
No
champion became a champion overnight. Every champion you see today went through
lot of adequate preparation for years. You don’t wake up one day and expect
your gift to start making way for you when you still have a long way to go in
terms of developing your gift or talent.
Though
the Proverb makes it clear that the gift of a man will make a room for him, yet
it’s only for a developed gift that it works. It’s what you know very well, you
can deliver to your world. If you have the gift of playing saxophone and learn
not how to play it, that gift will remain dormant and won’t make way for you.
And if you know how to play and develop it not, you will soon become irrelevant
to your world.
The
world will become tired of you. Why? Because they are tired of hearing one type
of playing continually. Your world needs new skill and pattern of playing.
Develop yourself.
Everyone
has to develop their talent. No day is not enough to develop your develop. One
week is neither enough nor one month. One year is even not enough! Good things
takes years, likewise your gift. According to Dr. David Oyedepo, “learning is a lifetime.” Every day you should keep developing yourself if you’re to remain useful to your world.
Usain
bolt didn’t become the world faster runner for just one day of preparation. It
took him year after much failure before he became the fastest man of his time.
And up to date, he is still developing himself because he knows if he stops
because he has climbed to the top, then someone else will come and overtake him.
Until
you see the very best of your potential, don’t stop developing yourself. Your
gift is very vital and it worth serious development. Give yourself time in
developing yourself. Focus on yourself. Create time for yourself than anyone
else. Focus more on your gift than your world. Your world needs the beauty of
your gift and not you. You have nothing to give your world if you fail to keep
on developing your gift continually.
There
are time the development of your gift gives you sleepless night that your body
temperature seem very high. But don’t worry, let it be so. Your gift worth it. The
most important thing is that you deliver the best of your gift to your world
before going for eternity. Nothing makes you more important to your world than
your developed gift.
There
are times it looks like there is no improvement when developing yourself, but
don’t give up. There is always an improvement even though you don’t see it.
It’s not compulsory you see the improvement but you keep developing it. Don’t
get tired because you didn’t notice any sign of improvement. Keep on developing
it and I tell you, few years from now, you will be amazed at the level you have
claimed.
DEVELOP YOURSELF!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
GLORIOUS TEAM
