Johnspeak Uwangue: Who Stole My Life by Nobody: 11:26pm On Sep 27, 2017 |
#GetMotivated WHO STOLE MY LIFE? By Johnspeak Uwangue (Motivational Speaker, Talent and Life Coach) Please permit me to share a short story with you of a man who had a very big gold plated mansion. All his cooking utensils were made of gold, his furnitures were of the best quality, his shoes were gold plated, he also had some clothes that were decked with diamond stones, the dinning section of his 182 rooms mansion was big enough to contain 100 cars, the swimming pool inside the house would be big enough to host the Olympic, and the football field in the compound was as big as a typical English premier league football pitch. He also had tennis courts, basketball courts, and a standard golf course. His servants were more than three hundred and his kids attended the best schools in the world with the children of the world’s richest people. His house was a relaxation center for top political office holders like Presidents, PM, Kings of great kingdoms, top chief executives, world billionaires, military generals etc. In fact, he was an authority because of his riches. Presidents bowed to him in order to get financial assistance for their countries. His companies were well known all over the world. He also had his private army and police. The ground where his foots stepped on were worshiped. He was a giver and was reputed to have given scholarships from primary to university to more than one million people. His cars of all kinds were uncountable and he is known to have given out hundreds of thousands of cars and also tens of private aircraft to people. I know you already have a glimpse of who I am writing about. But on one fateful Saturday, while at his poolside with some of the world’s top celebrities, he left them to his room to sleep. But, when he woke up at about 4:00am the next morning, everyone and everything he had was gone. His gold plated mansion, cars, companies, servants, cash etc disappeared. In fact, he woke up with his mother and three siblings in a one room ‘face me - I face you’ apartment. He was shocked. What happened? Who stole my gold plated mansion? He asked. Later on, his mom told him that he had slept for more than five hours since he returned from his place of work as a bus conductor. He came back to himself and realized that all the mansion, cars, etc were not real and that they were all in his dreams and he had just woken up to the reality of life. Have you forgotten those dreams of yours? Dreams of buying your first car at 19, traveling abroad for your master's program at 22, building of a university in your community, establishing several companies all over the world at 35, becoming a millionaire at 18, etc and now you realize that you just clocked 30 and you still haven’t bought a car. And now you realize that those were great dreams but this is reality. Every of our dreams can come to pass at the exact time that we want them to, but the only requirement is ACTION. Action is the line between dreams and success. No matter how big our dreams are, they can become reality. It is good to dream, but it is better to wake up and pursue them the circumstances notwithstanding. Whats that that was stolen from you? Mine was to be the youngest billionaire. Oh! How I love to own a yacht, an helicopter in my youth, I just love the feeling of cruising a yacht while I enjoy the cool sea breeze. But now, the question that so many people are asking all over the world is, who stole the kind of life I want? Those dreams of ours can come to pass if only we would act on our dreams and plans. SUCCEED YOU MUST! © Johnspeak Uwangue Motivational Speaker, Talent and Life Coach. Lalasticlala mynd44 Seun |
