Live A Purposeful Life..
Few weeks ago, I was on my way to school, trying to cross a busy road. While making an attempt to cross, I noticed that people who were faraway from me had crossed the road but I was not able to cross the road because some vehicles were close to where I was standing.
This experience reminded me of my childhood days where mum would have to hold my hand firmly before I could cross the road thereby reminding me that I should not follow someone in crossing a busy road because we could be standing in different locations.
Reminiscing on those good old days made me relate it to our existence now where people would involve themselves in what is obviously not their way because someone else is doing it and is succeeding in it.
If you cross a busy road because someone else is crossing it even when you are standing in different locations, you might end up getting crushed which is the same thing applicable to you following other people's way because it seems to work for them.
You need to start by living a life of purpose, not a life of copying or looking at other people's lives. Twin siblings born in the same day cannot make the same progress in life. One might shine and make it faster than the other. It doesn't now get justified if the other decides to quit his own job and start plying the same trade as the other, simply because the other has made it.
One man's food is another man's poison, what worked for A might not work for B, so instead of trying to take the same steps as people or cross the road at the same time as others, do things at your own pace and live a purposeful life.
You need to be sure of your destination and the journey to it and that's why you need to understand yourself properly. What are those things that you will perform exceedingly well in?.What are you passionate about?. What is your purpose? Where exactly do you function better?. What gives you adequate fulfillment?. Giving sincere answers to these questions will give you a clear insight of how to cross your busy road of impossibilities into unlimited success.
Crossing the road while others are and forgetting that you at different stand point will lead to either death or accident. So, following people dreams and visions will do two things,
👉Kill ones vision
👉Patch ones way to success, that is even if you realize it on time, people in this category end up achieving success with bruises.
So why not achieve success without having to strain out your sanity, without having to distort your emotions,waste your time and even your funds( because these are the bruises from crossing because others are crossing) by following your own dreams and goals, don't forget every man is unique in is own way .
Don't follow crowds, live a purposeful life....

It is indeed useless to live our life in conformity with others. We have different passion, happiness and purpose so we should look within us what these things are and stop comparing and following ither people just because most are doing it ans it's becoming the norm and standard.
