Everyone wants a chance to prove themselves but only a few gets that chance. Out of these few that gets the chance little actually utilize it effectively.
There are a lot of reasons why these people that never get that chance and didn’t utilize them effectively fall in that category:
• Procrastination
• Laziness
• Low self-esteem/self doubt
• Psychological problem
• Death
• PROCRASTINATION—Many people actually wants that chance and opportunity to be something and some body but when the chance come they procrastinate (i.e. feel they have the time to do it later so they postpone). For these people it is always “I will do it tomorrow” but their tomorrow never come, because they keep saying “tomorrow… tomorrow … tomorrow …”. These set of people tend to miss their opportunity because when they keep postponing, someone else has already grabbed the opportunity.
• LAZINESS—Laziness is one menace that rules the judgment of the younger generations of this age. When it time to work am tired, when it is time to labour we are also tired so how will you seize your opportunity if you don't work. The saying that “there is nonfood for a lazy man” is no joke at all that even women has taken it serious and are now out like the men working diligently to put food on the table. A lot of people miss their chance because they are not willing to work.
• LOW SELF-ESTEEM/SELF DOUBT—The saying “I can't” is one of the main reason many people still have not progressed in life. When the opportunity finally comes to step up, they doubt and loose faith in themselves to be able to do it. A lot of people with great potential have not been able to live up to their potential all because they don't believe they are good enough.
• PSYCHOLOGICAL PROBLEM—Mental instability can also hinder people from recognizing their chance and not achieve their dreams. Most mentally challenged people tend to live a life of illusion without reality. At times they tend to see things that are not physical and end up living a lonely and uninteresting life with their dreams and aspiration forgotten because they are battling with something spiritual or “their demons”.
• DEATH—Apart from God and change this is another Constance in life. Everyone will surely experience death which of all the reasons listed has stopped more dream that any other. The most painful effect of death to dreams is when it strikes a life that is closest to achieving its ambitions and dreams.
The best advice I can give anyone is make use of your chances the moment they come and ensure to make something positive out of every opportunity. Life is short, opportunities are few, chance of making it is slim but against all odd you can make it if you do the following:
• Believe in yourself
• Love yourself
• Work hard
• Pray and put God first
• Help others if you want other to help you
• Be flexible in thinking and open to new ideas
• Be persistent and never give up
• Love what ever you are doing
