*David woke up one day, and went about his daily chores as it was normal with him. By 11.30am, his father sent for him from home that his attention was needed – Prophet Samuel had come to the house of Jesse. Everything changed rapidly for him thereafter : this is the power of opportunity.*
*One day, Joseph woke up in prison and went about his prison supervisory activities as it was normal with him, before the close of the day, Pharaoh sent for him to come and interpret his dreams, and things took rapid changes thereafter for his good : talk of the power of opportunities there.*
*As you go about your assignment this new month of September, you must understand that to each day, there are opportunities attached to it.*
*This is because each day of one’s life, presents one with a whole brand new opportunity to explore and exploit one’s chances of success and of going forward.*
*You must therefore take each day of your life as a golden opportunity to write and rewrite the history of your own life for good.*
*Questions will come up as each day unfolds before you, please give well-intentioned answers to them, you never can tell where the answers may lead you to.*
*Do not take the issues of life opportunities for granted, never please.*
*Saul the son of Kish woke up one day looking all over the place for the missing animals of the father, but by the time he was returning back home in the evening, he had been anointed as the first king of Israel at the time.*
*May I tell you this? Your approach to yesterday’s opportunities may be most unsuitable and realistic for today’s challenges.*
*I therefore encourage you to be prompt,be productive,be proactive,be progressive, be creative, be focused, be resilient, be committed and be intentional as you go about your duties and activities.*
*Most times, the way forward can be to re-strategize all over again. There may not be other ways about it.*
*Keep driving forward your visions. Keep pushing yourself, at times hard, even when the body is showing signs of unwillingness to push.*
*And one day will come, when there will be a connection between your prepared self, and the opportunity that has presented itself to you.*
*That meeting point of the two is called “point of equilibrium” which is referred to as ” point of breakthrough”.*
Do have a blessed month ahead 👍
