HUNGER FOR MORE

                              HUNGER
                           FOR
                           "MORE"
"Your success will end where your hunger for more ends" - JOHN UWANGUE

Sometimes i call myself Oliver twist, simply because if you give me two i will still ask for more. Your success ends where your hunger for more ends. Asking for more is not a sign of ingratitude neither is it a sign of selfishness, it is definitely a sign of unusual greatness. Stop settling for little things, stop been satisfied with menial achievements when there are great things that you can accomplish. Before now, a twenty storey building was seen as a global achievement, been a millionaire was a very big deal, been an inventor was something out of the ordinary, buying a personal private jet was seen as a great feat, been a university/college graduate was something to be proud about. But alot of people became hungry for more, we just wanted to achieve what our parents couldn't achieve, we just wanted to be greater than our parents. Not because we didn't love our parents but because we just wanted more. Right now, becoming a millionaire will no longer make news because even forbe is tired of ranking millionaires, buying a private jet is no longer an achievement because there are individuals in Nigeria that have up to 4 private jets, been a graduate should not make your head burst because there are now so many teenage graduates and school drop outs that are impacting their generation positively.
I have also discovered that the world has more than the population of the world needs, so why settle for little water when there is a very big river down the lane. To ask for more simply means to be very very hungry for success, to ask for more also means not being satisfied with little achievements. Why should you be satisfied because you were given a national award in your country when there are more that 200 countries in the world, why should you be satisfied because you have a very successful company when there are individuals that have chains of successful companies, why should you be satisfied because you are the CEO or COO of another man's company when you too can be the CEO of your own company, why should you be satisfied because you earn $10 million per year when there are individuals that pay the same amount as their tithe per week, why are you satisfied with a swimming pool when you could own a river.
Those who ask for more are those that will be given more. Your hunger and thirst will only be filled according to how hungry and thirsty you are. Some people would have left the poverty lane if only they were courageous enough to ask for more. Ask for more pay rise today because you too can earn a million dollars per month, ask for a better car today because brand new Sophisticated cars were not made for just a selected few, ask for a better living condition today because you were not born in the slump to die in the slump, ask for a better school for your kids today because they should get the best education, ask for better food today because your stomach is not a dump site where things that are not needed are dumped, ask for a bigger house today because you too can experience what it feels like to live in a mansion, ask to be self sufficient today because God did not create you to be a servant/employee/beggar for life, ask to be a better dad/mum today because your kids deserve the best, ask to improve in your grades today because you are more intelligent than you think, ask for expansion of your small business today because you are too creative to have a local brand, ask for more today because you deserve more.
Asking for more does not mean that you should go on the street to protest against your government because the government of your country is too small to determine your life and destiny, asking for more doesn't mean that you should hold down your employer, it simply means that you should get angry at your present situation by thinking big so that you can live big.
Stop pitying God, stop pitying His pocket like a wife would pity her husband. He wants you to hunger for more today because he has more than enough in his store house and because you were not made for just yourself but to touch the lives of others. I have also discovered that those who are not satisfied with little success and achievements are those that have love in their hearts. How will you be able to feed the hungry, clothe the naked, provide shelter for the homeless, cater for the old, pay up the debts of your country, build schools for your community, take aids to war torn zones, sponsor the medical bills of the poor, give scholarships to children and youths in your community when you do not have more. No matter how successful or fulfilled you think you are, there are still untapped potentials in you that the world still needs. Don't give up now, stop settling for just a plate when there are still more than enough for your consumption.
