When asked 'who wants to be successful in life' in any gathering of people despite their ages, everyone raises their hands. (or I hope everyone does).
Everyone wants to be successful.
Drake sef sing am: 'I just wanna be successful'.
Just like the popular saying: 'the top is very lonely' because only few people can get there. For example in a bank; there are so many front desk officers and only one chairman (or woman *wink*)
I have undergone series of interviews for different positions, most times its exhilarating when you get a call back, but imagine those who didn't get. I'm not saying its your fault that they weren't called back, its part of life sef: win some, loose some. But just take a few seconds to think of how those who didn't get called back feel, put yourselves in their shoes.
What brought about this thought you might ask?. A couple of persons and I are waiting to be assigned at work, some people in our batch have been assigned, while some couldn't continue the journey. I was reading the group chat recently and every other person who had been assigned had some sort of fun or horrible experience to talk about work. Slowly and surely those who haven't gotten any deployment would begin to feel left out of the conversation.
Its like when you are friends with someone, maybe they are in your class or organization or church and then for some reason you move on. For instance, you move to the next class and the friend has to repeat. Initially you both try to work out your friendship, like I said earlier; slowly and surely, you begin to make new friends, and then start having awkward conversations before you both drift apart.
Yeah I am guilty of this behavior, although there are some friends that become dead weights which you eventually have to drop, but there are some whom are of value and importance.
I have this friend, she usually says 'I don't discard people oh, you can never know who you might need in the future'. I see sense in her philosophy and I try very hard to see the value in everyone I come across.
Today I want you to think of all the people you've left behind whenever you proceed or move up the ladder.
Remember the cup bearer remembered Joseph when the king requested for a someone who can interpret dreams, yeah God must have reminded him, but I'm buttressing on the fact that he remembered someone he left behind..
With love,
