I wise man once said, the biggest limitation in life is not that which we face, rather it's from within, meaning only you can stop you...
there was this Oldman who came by the office. he is a well-known chef, had traveled far beyond the shores of these country doing what he knows how to do best, according to my boss he's the best she's known, but what happened, why isn't he settled maybe own his own space and run his own business.
the truth is these questions and more had given rise to some deep curiosity as to why things are the way they are, was it that he never thought of business or putting an end to the 9-5 routine or there was never a window , an opportunity or he just never thought about it
I realise that the truth is, it's not that most persons do not what to break free from the rate race but fear of the unknown is what keeps a lot of persons rooted at a spot, secondly they are so many amazing ideas that are really good due to lack of funding, a goldmine is buried.
by the grace of God I'm through with the educational system and I'm like ready ready now, oya let's start, only to realise there are no jobs, not like I'm surprised cause I knew this outcome and had prepared my self for self sufficiency, I had made plans, strategies and hoped it all played out well, but for some reasons I feel stuck between reality and expectations, first off my plans requires serious funding, secondly in other to raise that funds I need a good paying job, save up and launch, same thing with a friend of mine, an amazing guy with great ideas, but no funds to initiate.
starting from ground zero can be very difficult but once you can summon courage to overcome fears of the unknown anything is possible, after i observed certain things, I realise that it's best to start from the known(reality) point to the unknown (Imagination).
overcoming these fears can be overwhelming, when nothing is happening and that feeling stuck in reality comes up, its all a matter of minds made up to run till you catch up no matter what.
