TAKE A STEP!
Hey! Young and old people out there, please read this through and digest it, okay? And before I go into my discussion, TAKE A STEP!

TAKE A STEP!

TAKE A STEP!

TAKE A STEP!

You see, life is too much of a struggle just to sit down in a spot and wait for a better day, which may not come. I laugh when I hear people saying better days are coming; in fact, it has now become a daily song "most people, or we all, sing." Let me tell you the bitter truth: no better day is coming, oh! Sorry to disappoint you; you think I will say it the other way round. Let's be frank with each other: no better day is coming. You have to stand up on your feet, leave your comfort zone, and go meet the better day you're waiting for to come meet. Better Days Self doesn't like stress; she's tired of going to people. It's now your turn to go meet better days.... It's funny, right?

Hmmm, but not really funny; it's just the honest truth: you have to TAKE A STEP. "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a step," they say, but I rephrase it as "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a step taken, yes!" You have to take that step, not just sit in a spot and decide to do things. Take the right step. You wish to start up a business? Take a step. You want to go to school? Take a step. Do you want to marry? Please take a step. Whatever successful decision you make, don't just make it and leave it abandoned. Please take a step.

Let me give you an illustration to back up what I am saying for your better understanding. there are 5 men under a tree, mango tree to be precise full of ripe mangoes resting their for a while using the shade the tree provides to prevent them from the hot sun, because they are tired and hungry suddenly 3 ripe mangoes drop down from the tree they were all happy and decide to go take it and eat for like 15min after they were still at that same spot still deciding then one passers-by saw the mangoes and packed them all and left they were all bittered and lamenting that the mangoes belong to them because they saw it first, yes they saw it first but the mangoes does not belong to them, because they were not the one that planted the mango their neither was it in there compand it belongs to the one that takes the step to go pick them up from the ground they fell on.

What am I saying? Take the step now. Now is the right time to take the step. Stop procrastinating, i.e., pushing it forward. Once an opportunity shows, it doesn't come for one person, even if it does. As in, let's assume it does, but if the person it comes for is not available or not making the right move, it goes to the person available. What is opportunity? You see this opportunity we are talking about here, as in right now, is preparation plus availability backed up with steps taken. If you're prepared and available and you did not make the right move, nothing is going to come out of it.

So guys, take steps today. You see that thing you have in mind start the exhibition today, yes, today! And you won't regret it. 👌

You're right, most people just make suggestions but don't act on them, they complain but don't do anything, they dream but... they don't act! I think it's the fear of failure that paralyses them.

Exactly. When all goes according to the plan we don't have the need for improving it.

Yes, that is very true. 
Better day's start from the day we stand up, and face our fears. Nothing will come out if any move is not taken.
