How to Become Successful: A Story of Jane and Johnny – Keep Your “Balls Lak eggs”.

 

Too many times, success comes to the open with/without noise, but someone or many would make volumes about her. Well, she's beautiful and nesh. 

Everyone loves her and wants to be with her to live happily ever after. And because of this, something happens to you/me saliently, and we may never know...

Put truly, we may need to be called to cognizance to be sure we're not caught in the web – what happens to us when we take a sight at success or what people think it is? Yes, it’s the same way you never knew we really crushed on beautiful damsels back in school, or even somewhere else. And when you come to think of it, you feel you could just see her everyday, and you're glad and cool... Well, the same way you feel that marker of affluence should be tagged with your name when you see others own it and stand in the position of success. Yes, you just don’t know… but that’s the feeling. Simply, everyone seeks the bright and beautiful but not everyone take time to identify the particles that make up a beaming light.

 

A story comes to heart, of some two kids who find a cool space along their search for snail in the tender weeds around their neighborhood. Too many times they had set out without a catch, but they are really sure there is rain in resent time, and hence, there should be snails. Well, it's also been dry before now. It is a wake of spring... however, it's been good time playing in the rain. They set out for some search.

So quickly, it seems the itchy sun would come twitching their zeal quite early and unfulfilled. So, they are scared as their bags are yet empty.

And just a step further before the morning sun laughs at them, Janny screams! Hey! wat're these  beau'ful balls lak eggs? John replies; well Ion know. But'a tink we pickt'em an' keep them in some bucket. Yea, you though' well dza:ni... we found ‘em in a cool place too, so we'd better kep'em with some wet soil. Your hunters soon go home with bags of "small balls like eggs".

They are not yet successful, you and I am sure.  But Janny and John keep scanning through the same path after the rain, and they only find the small balls like eggs. They don't know what it is. But whatever it is, makes them feel they were making a daily catch of few balls lak eggs that nature provides, and they would not get tired. You don't envy kids and their thinking, do you? Well, come see why I sometimes do...

So, my kids someday have a bucket of eggs, and there seems to be no need to search for more... Janny would tell John. "I love 'em John. We go 'gain after the rain today." 'Well, mum says no hunt for snails because the rain these days is heavy. And we've got to keep the cold in hot pee!' "But why we never find a snail Johny?" 'Well, we've got lot o' eggs lak balls!" 'Watchwe gon' do wi 'em?' "well, nature gave us 'em, an' we'll keep 'em for her. Mum says, you giv laf back wot she givya an' you get 'em back in folds!" 'hmmm... true Johnny! Bor wat is fold o' eggs lak balls?" 'Ion know, e'na don havtwu!'... see why I envy kids?

Well, if I told you success was finding what you don't know how much you need, along the search for just what you dearly need, you'd damn my kiddy thoughts. Right?

Well, get the gist; a big mother snail someway finds herself in the bucket of eggs at the backyard, and my kids would soon start a venture of eggs. The neighbors on the street would also come to confess they had always wished they found snails after rain and it’s really scarce to find any. So, what comes to heart? Little Jane and Johnny are making headlines awnnn?

How to Become Successful; the Value of Little Things.

Well, back to thoughts. To think you've ever been a failure because you never won the accolades of men is not true. And to think you're a success until your faith becomes sight is bread baked half way. Success is each stone that comes to bend her small head under the load of an empire-to-being. Success is also a snail in a shell, it can be so slow to incubate, think little of becoming the weight of the price you desire. But, the beauty is that it has all it takes to metamorphose except your self wisdom! 

Yet, you started being a failure when you damn just every little thing that adds to your experience along your ply to greatness. That way, you will not be thankful for the little things of life. Hence, you don't have a heart of fulfillment when you seemingly turn the success that you want. You hurt inside, because you daily see a new man break the grand narrative of your greatest achievement, and you feel the need to start again. A successful hand needs a successful mind to be true, and the food of the mind is joy. No true joy however comes in self-help, self aggrandizement; and all the shades of selves you can suggest. Saliently; providence has a law that surpasses your diligence - be thankful for little things, and succeed by taking a step at a time.

 

Cap it all; be thankful for every little step taken forward, even when they do not make a sense yet. Be thankful for every single day spent going, even when they mean no progress yet, and never stop to go pick your "egg lak balls" until your bucket is full and God gives you rest. Yet, I'm sure we soon celebrate our successes with us, and nations would come to the rising of our dawn. But before then, be thankful to God for just everything, even when no one seems to associate with you yet since you’ve not yet turned the success they defined in their terms.

Did you notice how many times I referred to Jonny and Janny as “my kids”? Yes, when their eggs lak balls become snails.  That’s life, and it’s true. So, don’t get tired hunting your success and keeping the fragments of the future in each day.

the gift of a man makes ways for him…
