Don’t Just Stand There.

I went to the ATM to withdraw some cash and when I got there, I saw that everyone was standing before two out of the three machines that were there.

In my mind, I was wondering, why is there nobody using the third machine? Is it that it’s faulty or what? Well, instead of joining the bandwagon, I decided to ask the people I met there, is this machine working?

Surprisingly, nobody seems to know. Why? Nobody has cared to ask that question. They all just came and joined the crowd.

So, I walked to the machine, inserted my card, and voila! cash came out. I didn’t waste time waiting for anything. When others saw what happened, they jumped to use the machine but me, I was already on my way.

Is that not what many of us do? You’re scared to ask questions. You’ll prefer to join the multitude who do not know what they are doing or where they are going to instead of asking a question and changing the narrative.

Some are scared of asking a question for the sake of avoiding rejection. Why do you fear rejection in advance? Everyone experiences rejection at one time or the other. You don’t believe, ask Jesus Christ.

Instead of just standing there, why not ask questions. Ask for direction. Ask for clarification. Ask for an explanation. Ask for the person’s hand in marriage. Whatever is the asking, just ask.

Don’t just stand there, ask questions.

Have You Set Your Goals?

Hello,

How are we doing today? In my last post, I asked if you’re working on your goals for 2022 or you’ve already done that.

Some persons may be having issues with, “how do I set goals for myself, what areas should I set goals on, etc

Well, before asking how to set your goals, you should first identify the areas in which you want to set goals. I’ll just share mine with you without going into details.

The areas you can set goals in depends on what you intend to achieve. What I mean by that is, if you’re a leader and you intend to achieve something in that area then, you should set leadership goals for yourself.

If you intend to invest in yourself via personal development, then you should set goals in that area. Do you get it?

You can’t achieve something if you’re not committed to it. Setting your goals will make you committed to achieving the same.
