How To Use What You Have To Get What You Want by bishoprccg(m): 7:32pm On Nov 21, 2008
Every individual on planet earth has been blessed with one talent or the other.
Whether you call it talent or gift, they all imply a form of endowment from God.
Some discover their talents or gifts on their own, while others roam aimlessly in life never knowing they carry so much gifts and talents in them.
If there is one individual I love so much that will be Lepacious Bose, the effervescent female stand- up comedian.
She is so big in stature, but yet never tired of churning out jokes about are big stature.
She is unarguably among the top earners as far as the entertainment industry is concerned in Nigeria.
There are other ladies with similar statures, who are roaming the streets in search of jobs.
The secret is to identify what you have, and learn how to use it to get what you want.
A young fellow once approached his pastor to lay his hands and anoint his head.
He felt there was an element of bad luck following him around.
What he thought he needed was some bit of anointing oil on his head, to wipe off all form of bad luck.
The pastor, who knew this young fellow so well, told him point blank: “it is not your head that need to be anointed, but your buttocks”
The reason for this, been that the young man never stays in one place for a minute.
He moved aimlessly and appeared confused of what he wanted in life.
This was someone who was having so much potential inside, and yet never achieving any form of success in life.
It was the pastor’s bitter counsel that jolted him back to life.
He realized he needed to stay focused and use what he had to get what he wanted.
He realized he needed no anointing oil to get what he wanted.
You don’t need to be a Masters degree holder to succeed in life; neither do you need to be connected in high places to get what you want.
What you need to succeed is right inside of you.
All you need to learn is how to use what you have to get what you want.
Ophrah winfrey, one of the most successful black American woman on planet earth has this piece of advice to share with us: “Use what you have to run toward what is best-that’s how I now live my life”
So many individual are on the verge of loosing their mind, because of the load of potentials and knowledge they are carrying about on their brain.
As long as you don’t use what is inside of you, it will keep on building up, and only God knows what can happen when it is filled up.
So many run from one seminar to the other, attending training, workshop, lectures, booth camps and other knowledge based programs.
They come back home with so much knowledge, and never attempt to execute even one single idea!
The end result is frustration and failure.
I feel ashamed when I get to hear news about Nigerians rotting in jails abroad.
The fact that they are in jail is not the issue, but the countries where they are been held captives: India, Pakistan, Libya, Togo, Spain and even Iraq.
Its so sad that they choose to run abroad looking for what they want, when they possess everything to achieve success in life.
Whether you are tall, short, fat, ugly, beautiful, disabled, black, fair, uneducated or poor, you have something on your inside that will catapult you to success.
Age is not a barrier in getting what you want in life.
Dear friends, wake up from your slumber and begin to use that which you have been blessed with to get what you want.
Remember, God will only bless you with more gifts if he finds you using the one you already have
