DARING THE IMPOSSIBLE


"Your greatest surprise in life will be to know that that which you are afraid of is also afraid of you" - John Uwangue

While doing a research on snakes, i discovered that a snake can be in your house for a very long time without harming you, not because it is strategizing of how to attack but because it is scared of coming out. So it hides itself from the occupant of the house. Our life will become better and sweeter if only we dare to challenge those things that are posing as challenges to us. Fear is one of the greatest hindrance to success, fear tells you that you can't succeed, fear tells you that you can't be a better person, fear tells you that you will fail if you decide to start your own business or venture out alone, fear tells you not to take that step that will launch and explode you to your world, fear tells you that you will die poor if you decide to stop illegalities, fear makes you to suspect people without cause, fear makes you to develop an inferiority mentality, fear tells you that it is impossible to become rich without stealing, fear makes you to develop an impossibility mentality and fear tells you that you can't.
You will be so surprised of the level that you will get to when you dare those things that seems impossible. It is so unfortunate in Africa that so many Africans have an impossibility mentality that has stagnated the continent for so long. Some few years ago, i told a friend of mine that he should watch out because i am going to be the world's richest; not only in my generation but in generations to come. When i said it, i didn't know how it was going to be possible but i just knew that it is possible for a black man to be the world's richest, i just knew that the son/daughter of the poorest of the poor can lend to nations, i just knew that anything is possible to those who will "cross their mind" and dare the impossible. After saying that, he laughed and started to pinpoint the reasons while its impossible. He reminded me of my background, he reminded me of the continent that i come from, he reminded me of the political lootings in my country, he mocked at my appearance, and after mocking me, he searched my pocket to see if i have any money on me and when he found nothing, he mocked me the more.
You might not know when the next meal will come from, you might not look like someone who is capable of making even a thousand dollars, you might come from a very poor background, but i want you to know that you can achieve the impossible if only you will give fear a hard knock on its head and dare the impossible. The fact that you were born into a poor background does not mean that your back should remain on the ground.
Anything under the sun is poosible. It is possible to graduate from the university as a teenager, it is possible to become a professor even as a teenager, it is possible for one man to pay up the debts of his country, it is possible to be the world's greatest even as a female. It is possible, no matter the criticisms and mockery from people, it is possible even if no one has been able to do that which you hunger for, it is possible even if no one believes in you and your vision, it is possible only to those who will take a decision and dare their fears.
The man who successfully climbed the tallest mountain in the world was not the first to try, the first man to successfully fly to the moon was not the first to try, the first world billionaire was not the only person in his country, the men/women who successfully invented one thing or the other or achieved one feat or the other were not the only ones around but were those who took away their fears and dared the impossible. Don't allow the mockery or oppression from friends and family members put fear in your heart, don't allow anybody tell you that you can't do it. You can achieve the impossible if only you will dare your fears today. I want you to know that it is only precious things that are guarded. So, anything that you become nervous about when you want to do it, definitley has a blessing or blessings in it.
