If you want to do anything in life, you have to be hungry to achieve youre dreams. everyday work into developng yourself. If you have a talent for siging, start practising everyday, imagine yourself there already before you are even called to sing once for free. it is always better to be prepeared for the opportunity and not have it, than have an opportunity come and you are not prepared for it. The key to success is to be always prepared.

There is this monster that will constantly come and attack you so that you shrink back to your comfort zone. The monster is called BUT.

We all in our daily lives struggle with the but excuse

Excuse No 1: Buit I have no money, they say you need money to make money. Firstly that mentality needs to change. Never say you do not have money, rather ask yourself the question how can I get money to do it? Constantly ask yourself the questions that will direct you to the solutions you are looking for. We need to stop this mentality that someone out there has the solution to your problems. You are the solution to your problems. If the excuse of money creeps, in rather find a way to raise the capital you need. No matter how hard and long it will take, change your thinking and say if I need this kind of money how can I raise it.

Excuse No 2: But I have never run a business. That excuse has caused so many people to live this earth and take their multibilion ideas with them to the grave. The fact that they have never run a business made them so so afraid in a way that they made a choise not to pursue their purposes rather to die with the solutions that are needed on earth.

Excuse No 3: But I am not well educated. The best education any one can get is the field work. While you are pursuing your goals that is the education you need. You can go and attend a course for the field you are interested in pursuing, but the best learning happens on the job. Your question must rather be, how can I acquire the skills needed for me to be able to do what I love doing

Excuse No 4 : But what if fail? Fear of failure has made so many people to dream about their ideal life for over 30 years without even putting one foot out towards achieving their goals. Next time that excuse heat you, rather ask yourself - what If I succeed. The biggest failure will not be trying hard enough and ensuring that you take a chance on yourlife in fulfilment

Excuse No 5: But I am a single mother/father. This is the excuse especially most of us women love to keep giving. It is like our children came into our lives to stop us from living our dreams. What we forget is that we would be better parents when we are in the jobs that we are passionate about, or running our own business doing what we love. Happiness is very contagious it will soon transfer to our kids who for some of us have to live with us day in and day out complaining about the jobs we hate and doing nothing about it.

I am personally a work in progress but I have made a decision this year to say no more excuses.
