Winning Begins With Our Attitude, Get A Clue



You may seem devastated and out of luck when you find yourself at a crossroad where nothing seems forthcoming and it just feels like you're taking a step forward and ten steps back. Life has its ways of breaking a man and squeezing the motivation out of him, but what makes it beautiful despite the shortcomings and frustration you dine with every day, is the fact that you've already been able to win the war in your mind, having concluded that nothing will ever make you give up on getting to that desired destination. 

At this point, letting go of the fight feels much a harder fit to achieve and will rather keep pushing against all odds and that for me is the definition of a glorious man. God never said it will be easy, He only guaranteed us that He'll always be there with us through the storm. The truth is, if it came easy, we wouldn’t really appreciate its worth and when you're a major project of God's, be rest assured that you won't only go through the storm but will almost get drown in it and when the tides no longer frightens you, He comes to the rescue, knowing fully well that you're ready to swim its banks, and that my friend, is the kind of soldiers the Lord is in the business of making. 



Instead of whiling up in self-pity and engaging in demoralizing thoughts, why not begin to learn the lessons of life that the storms bring your way and put it upon yourself to know and understand what it is actually preparing you for, because only then can you qualify for the glory ahead. As hard as it may seem to comprehend but the truth still remains that there can never be a glory without a story. Apparently, the depth of your struggles will determine the height of your success. And you know, Sam Adeyemi often says that we cannot rise beyond the quality of our thoughts, which makes perfect sense to me by the way because it all begins in our mind. Basically, if you can think it, you can fake it and better still, live it. So braise up and start living the dream that starts within you.

Luckily enough, I believe you've been racing on the right track and it won't be too long before you arrive at the finish line if you find yourself fitting in the same shoe as I was writing this piece, because it only shows that you haven't given up on your dream and will give all it takes to making them come true. Basically, the only thing I believe that kept you this far is your attitude, that ever burning desire not to give up, because every other thing I must add, plays second fiddle to that. Without the right attitude, our passion, dream and hopes for the future dies and get buried right before our own very eyes long before life itself comes along to strangle the living day out of us. 



"There is no dream too big for you, winning begins with your attitude. Get your mind right and faith it till you make it. Hustle Hard, Hustle Right and Hustle God", I believe those are words of Toke Makinwa, the bestselling author of "On Becoming" and you can make them yours today. I know how frustrating life can get when you find yourself pitching the ball from the wrong side of the line. But remember, when the going gets tough, the tough gets going. It is not over till you win. Inherit a more aggressive mindset by studying the word, reading great books written by great minds and above all, looking to the mirror not to see who you are but who you want to be. God bless !
