It is a New Year. I am glad that
you are alive.
Welcome back to school. Well you
might feel excited to leave home, you don’t like the feeling of waking up early in the morning, wearing school
uniform, attending long classes, writing long notes, doing assignments,
preparing for tests and exams. I can go on and on.
I remember that I did not like
school. Yes, I know I am blunt, but in every circumstance you find yourself,
you need to excel.So don’t form bad guy for me, I
know you want freedom to play, read novels, party, gist, hang out with friends,
which most likely the school environment will not give you.
Therefore, why don’t you have fun
and excel exceedingly in school. You will ask me, how?
During, my days in secondary
school, I read so many novels, while in the university, I watched too many
movies, but what helped me was that I had friends who were brainy, so the few
hours I chose to study, they were there to guide me.
The state of your mind and
feelings is based on you. It does not matter if your parents forced you to go
school or your teachers punish and flog you.
You have the power to decide what
you want. You can allocate time to your different activities.
Be determined that no matter the situation you
find yourself this term/year, you will be the custodian of your life. Therefore, before you make any
decision this term/year, be ready for the consequence.
If you want to play all through
the term/semester and prove to be a bad guy or follow friends like you, then be
ready for an average or poor result. For example, if you play games,
gist and party through the term/semester, without taking time to study, then be
ready for an average/poor result.
I always say, that if you are not
going to be proud of the consequences of your actions, then don’t start it. I thank God, that while I was in
school, that even though I read too many novels and watched films, I discovered
that I have a photographic mind (I could cram my notes within a short period of
time and pass).
Well I am facing the consequence
of my actions, as I did not perform excellently well, but thank God I did not
do badly either.
Choose excellence today. You can do this by knowing who you are, what
are your likes/dislikes, what/who influences your decision making process.
I Believe In The Future Leaders
