WHAT TO DO WHILE YOU WAIT! This week we discuss one topic that we
all need to hear about more often and
that is; what to do while you wait for the
big things. Most times, we find ourselves in
situations not quite what where we want
to be. It may be in your profession,
relationships and business. Personally, I tend to save the best for last
and leave the party for the better days
that I am working towards. But is this the
best thing to do? The fact is that today, this week, this year
is a part of your life, there are no
discounts in one’s lifetime. Hence, any
day not used well or enjoyed is an
irrecoverable loss! So while you wait, here are some things
you could do in the mean time: Work on the Building Blocks Wake up every day with the belief that
the destination or the future will be a
result of how you have lived today. If
today is lived in misery, there is no way it
will produce a better future. Always ask yourself; what is it that I can
do today that will take me one step closer
to the future I hope for? The answers will surely come, and when
it comes do something with it. Self-
sabotage is a crime we are all
susceptible to, decide to shun it! Stay Grateful Remember that everyday has its own
blessings and challenges. Face them and
do not worry about the worries of
tomorrow. Spend time in gratitude, recognising that
even though you don’t have all you need
but there are so many other reasons to
be grateful. Going by the terrible things happening in
our world today, being alive is enough to
be grateful for. Live in the NOW Always live in the “NOW”.
This is by no means discouraging you
from planning for the future and having
big ambitions. No, but I say live in the now because
most times the dreams and plans for
tomorrow introduces frustration and
ingratitude who shuts the doors for
growth. Meditation is a very good tool that can
help you with living in the now. Solve Today’s Puzzle Success and breakthroughs of the future
are always hidden behind puzzles that if
you can solve them today, then it’s all
yours. It’s no surprise that many people who
seek do not find because they are not
patient enough to solve these puzzles. The puzzle may be taking up a small job
that might lead you to relationships that
will transport you to a future you never
even dreamed of. I have many personal stories of people I
met doing totally different things, who
helped me to climb a totally different
ladder that helped me grow
tremendously. In this journey, remember that whatever
you want for the future is a dream; it’s not
real yet so stay humble. Also, the puzzle could be in helping out a
charity and from there you can create life
changing relationships. The bottom-line here is; irrespective of
what you want to become, remember that
it is a journey and a journey of a
thousand miles as they say starts with a
step. That step is right in front of you, it is the
puzzle, so go ahead and take it! Stay Alert Look out for opportunities and use them.
It doesn’t matter how big or small they
seem. I don’t believe that the men and women
who created great things started out
thinking it is going to take over the world.
So pursue the opportunities you see. Keep your eyes open and do not ignore
opportunities around you today. Stay
awake to your dream! Work Hard Finally, wherever you find yourself, make
hard work your motto.
Yes, it may be the wrong job or business
but be a person known for hard work. The truth about hard work is that it has a
way of rewarding people who are not too
clever. We may not all be clever, but if
you are a hard worker, you can even be
ahead of clever people. Also, people are watching. Stories
abound where people have been spotted
by total strangers for new opportunities
and awards. You could next. There you have it; what to do while you
wait: Work on the Building Blocks, Stay
Grateful, live in the NOW, Solve Today’s
Puzzle, Stay Alert and Work Hard. Have a
great week! To your success! As usual, please leave your comments

believe they will benefit. Have a great
week and speak soon.
