“He who needs a thing
has to go and find it” (Ghanaian proverb)
The world is filled with people who desire and
expect people to do things for them. Most of us really wish we could get all
what we want without much stress. Only few people are ready to pay the price.
Often times, we expect our creator, the government, our religious leaders,
teachers, parents, children, colleagues, neighbours or loved ones to provide
certain things for us because we feel that we need and deserve those things.
Our ancestors believe that the key to greatness is
in your ability to take up responsibility for yourself and going to find
whatever you want. No matter how difficult it is to find whatever that you
need, you must ensure that you get it.
Instead of thinking about how to persuade other
people to help you, why not start thinking and planning on how to do it
yourself. Even if people must help, it should be after you have taken the first
bold step to doing it yourself.
Nature usually works in favour of the man who knows
what he needs and takes the bold step to get it. No matter how long it takes,
you can always get whatever you want if you make up your mind to get it. Try
this today; get a pen and a piece of paper, write down your basic needs before
the end of this year, put it under your pillow, check it every day and never
relent until you find them out. Don’t forget to share your experience with the
ancestors. May your days be meaningful.
