Life is full of daily challenges, and I try so hard not to break down, as a young man starting his life and building everything gradually from scratch. As a young man trying to find his own balance in life, I have learnt a lot, and trust me, it wasn't easy, but one thing I know for sure is the universe always has a way of rewarding people who really put in their effort to make things possible, even though it might not be their big expectations.

I have grown to embrace every challenge and not break down even though the situations might be really tough. Nobody prays for any bad thing, but being a man, we have to be prepared for the worst, and the worst can be very tough to hear about or even witness.
Everyday i wake up and step out to physical work, i always speak to myself that i shall be great and trust me i try to be 1x better that the previous day, but there are sometimes laziness can be overwhelming or even sleep, i try not to fight it but give the body what it wants sometimes and i try to embrace the body to take what i want anytime. With a strong mind, I have been making so much effort in learning and upskilling to always become a better version of myself. I grew up in a competitive country, so any skill I have, I have to be 2x better at it than others to gain attention from people and influential men who can change our lives.
I always start my day the previous day, it sounds weird, but I have always been two steps ahead in preparation, and this has really helped me. This is why when I wrote about the ember month, I made it known that I will be lore-focused in the next year more than the previous one, because this helps me prepare for the next year. Most people i know talked aboyt the past year, how they struggled, their focus to achieve before the ending, but the real truth is, the past is the past, it cant be changed but the future can, not just by setring goals but by preparing early bith for the worst times and the good times because it is not always going to be a happy moment forever.
The modern struggle can be overwhelming sometimes. Based on my experience, modern struggles I have witnessed and read about are like keeping up with relationships and jobs, economic hardship, Housing struggles, and most especially social media pressure. Social media has really polluted a lot of our minds, so we fail to see the truth in life and our true existence. Most times, I just tend to overcome this by reading books and saving up videos I feel have positivity, so when I am down, I just go to my gallery and watch the videos.
Generally, we are all born to do something someday but nobody prays it comes sooner, all i will suggest is we embrace everything and try to do things that will make us happy, sometimes it could be music, watching videos, or talking to a friend, lets just feel alive, this is how life works, happy moment doent last forver same with sad moment, but we shouldn't allow it break us down. Embrace yourself, move on and be Happy.
