THE ‘DRAW’ RULE

Many have concluded that they do not have enough to offer the world. But is that true?

I do not concur with the statement that a man is empty and has nothing to offer. Not even a tiny bit. Even John Obidi once said, “Use what you have for what you have is plenty.”

While my belief might appear confusing and the usual saying of speakers and writers, I still want to see you live the best of your life and overcome that feeling. And so, I came up with a solution in the DRAW rule that would help you to live your life better.

The first is  D which stands for DISCOVERY.

In the ongoing Skill Up Initiative organized by Miss Chioma Nana and her team, one of the guest speakers, Ms Chinaza Favour, said, “No man is short of talent. The least talent God can give to a man is one.” Discovery of your inner prowess is the foundation for any other thing. To make use of what you have effectively, you must first discover all that it has.

R - REFINE

Using Ms Chioma Nnana's point of view, take a look at your inner prowess in its discovered state as yam. If you do not peel off the first layer, it is not presentable and fit for consumption. So is your talent if you fail to refine it.

A - APPROVAL

The truths of the old age are truths for our new age. The experience of the older generations is noteworthy instructions for the younger generation.

Take a look at the founder of Pepsi-Cola before his product boomed. He discussed with the founder of Apple what changed his life.

Take a look at John Obidi. He has a senior figure in Sir Olakunle Soriyan (PK) who gives him better insight as the futurist that he is.

Take a look at Val Okafor. He has his senior person in Fela Durotoye and that has made his journey purposeful.

You have someone that has harnessed a similar inner prowess as yours. Get their approval. Seek to know more about your inner power from them.

W - WORK OUT

Last but not least is your responsibility. Work out your inner prowess and make it visible. I love the saying of Chioma Nnanna, “there is no spotlight behind the scene.”

It is none of life’s business if you do not take your life business with all seriousness. In the first place, dominating in this life is not meant for the mediocre and unserious at heart and dealings. Be diligent and work miracles.

Having shed light on the DRAW formula, I do hope you see things from a better perspective and would live your life better.

Dear you, do not make a mockery of that which is within you. The command goes thus, “Strive to show yourself approved...” You can complete it.

Do you know that your love for your craft and the tenacity with which you move are factors that will take you far?

Many have already moved on after celebrating Tobi Amusan's achievement at the World Athletics Championships. However, when I read that she took a loan of $50,000 so that she could adequately prepare for the competition, I realized there's more to Tobi's success than meet the eye. Like someone put it, "No wonder! Na $50,000 day pursue her."

Sometimes, you need more than a dream. The courage to take calculated risks toward bringing your dreams to reality is just as valuable.

Happy new month! I hope you find the courage to take those calculated risks that will take you far. Cheers!

In whatever you do, never get too comfortable!
