Excuse! Excuse!! Excuse!!! We give excuse when we fail to do something we are expected to do; we almost always have an excuse for it. However, if we analyze it closely, an excuse is a self – destructive alibi for having failed to do something especially when it involves attaining a goal or fulfilling the purpose we are created for. Instead of trying to persevere in finding ways to continue achieving a goal, some of us resort to excuse. Even a handicap determined people have become achievers and champions. Instead of using a handicap as an excuse let us turn it into an asset. Let us explore this further. A handicap needs not to be a reason for failure.
On the contrary, a handicap can be a reason for success. People with a handicap always have an offsetting strength that allows them to overcome problems better than others. Everybody has handicaps in various forms and degree. That is why; it requires effort and determination to overcome them, handicaps can either be physically, financially or emotionally. And they can either be real or imagined. Whenever we look at a handicap, we almost always look on the negative side only. It is about time we take a look at the positive side of it. The positive side may be the difficult side, but it’s the one worth looking into. It’s the side that is going to lead us to excel in life.
If your handicap is financial, then the more reason you have to rise above your present status. And if your financial status limits your educational attainment to improve your life, the school is not the only place to learn. Certainly, there are help centers to get you started even from zero level. Once you are initially warmed up with the basics of an education, the rest is up to you. Make use of libraries once you are educationally equipped, use your brain and come up with creative ideas to improve your life.
If you are emotionally disturbed with negative thoughts, it is like you are sitting on a chair with wobbling legs. Try sitting on a chair with sturdy legs; meaning, look at the bright, positive side of life put aside negativity. The only one who can stop you is yourself. If your handicap is a combination of any of the physical, financial or emotional type congratulations you should strive more to overcome them, because a double layer of perseverance results to more than double the achievement. Where the odds are greater, the prize gets much bigger. After all the efforts you have exulted, the prize of success shall be a well deserved one.
My dear reader, you have no any excuse not to achieve your greatness, you have no any excuse not to fulfill the purpose of God in your life, all you need to do is just to discover your potential and talent and have the determination to work towards achieving that potential and bringing out that talent in you . Excuses have prevented some people from reaching their promise land.
Successful people win because they love what they do. All of them have a very strong desire to succeed. They have passion for their field, their business. Passion is the single fastest way to spur yourself to massive success. It is something you love. Something you're excited about. Something you get up early to work on or to stay up late.
