Great can never be beat

 Hey, 

Today let us talk about great, and why it can never be beaten, well what does great mean exactly? Great means of the amount that is above average, or of quality, ability considerably above average. Now I think most of us can understand that now to the question of why it cannot be beaten.

Something great is more appealing than something that is, say considered average. Anywhere you go everyone wants the better option and it's not that I am complaining, on the contrary, that is where I am hingeing my point so to speak. Anything great does not need to be defended it just defends itself. I like the way the Swahili saying puts it (kitu kizuri hujiuza kibaya hujitembeza) which means that something great will not need any convincing from anyone and the bad thing will always try to sell itself.

So what is my position well as much as people would want to put all the excuses available about how the great may have not been achieved were it not for an advantage, resources, and so forth. There is one thing that is for certain you are either great or mediocre you can not be both. What it is you are doing, and you do it to the best that you can be noticed, and you will need not convince anyone that you have done something great, it will just sell itself out.

As Martin Luther King jr once said, 'If a man is called to be a street swiper he should sweep streets as Michaelangelo painted pictures, or as Beethoven composed music, or as  Shakespeare wrote poetry. He should sweep so well that the host of heaven and earth will have to pause and say "Here lived a great street sweeper, who did his job well."

I think there is one unrelenting truth that is evident, it is not by size, resources, merits, and so forth that we can be great. In other words, if you can not be a mountain be a small hill but be the best small hill that has ever been.

I hope you find the courage and the strength to build great things and work on yourself to achieve the same.

Dare

The greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. The people who risk nothing, do nothing, have nothing, are nothing. They may avoid suffering and sorrow, but they cannot learn, feel, change, grow, love, and live. Chained by their attitudes they are slaves; they have forfeited their freedom. Only a person who risks is free. People, who risk may go through things that seem self-inflicting you know someone looking from the outside so to speak might ask what in the world is this guy thinking? why go through all that? why try you know how difficult it is? These are the people who don't risk anything thinking it's the best decision in the short term but in the long run, those who have risked are the ones who enjoy life, feel, change, find their path, grow, and live fulfilling lives. Just like a plant that is in a cocooned place will always look dull unlike a plant that faces all the elements, is usually more vibrant. Here is my point always try, risk, feel, love, and don't ...

How to know, you are doing the right thing for you

 Hey, have you ever thought that the reason you are struggling with certain things in your life is because of something else other than you? Maybe how you are brought up affected how you view relationships, how you were treated in certain situations has made you change the way you view things, maybe a breakup made you declare there is no love out there, and so forth. I am sure almost every one of us has. Surely what any of us has gone through affects how we view and define these "things" in our life. Talk of relationships, money, and life in general. I mean it is only natural, We are wired the way our brains are created to be for us, to protect us, and thus if anything happens against what is expected it is a cause of alarm. In other words, if for instance what you have done before failed, it's only natural that when you have a chance to do the same endeavor you become alerted and you end up hesitating to do it, or not doing it at all. These "things" that do hap...

The pandemic lessons and why they will always happen

 Hey, surely pandemics have always been with us right?, and as I should also say they are going to be with us. Let us face it there is another virus somewhere waiting to happen and I don't mean to scare anyone but to show what is actually reality. To be honest with ourselves the pandemics that do happen or will happen are usually 99% our faults caused by our negligence, carelessness, and so forth but also through good intentions like trying to experiment with a bunch of drugs to find a better one. Anyway, it should not be an excuse, as pandemics bring all the negative things that we all know yet funny enough through pandemics man has come out more capable and better with a drug to kill that virus and keep the virus in its place so to speak. But as much as pandemics come packed with all the negative stuff we should not forget all the good they come with. what do I mean you ask? pandemics come with their fair share of good talk the Covid 19 pandemic for instance I would say has come ...
