FEAR is a poor chisel to carve out your tomorrows. If you keep fear close to you while looking at the future, i want to let you know that the view is inaccurate and blurred. It's very wrong and never safe to look into the future with fear in your eyes. The worst and deadliest liars in the world are your own fears. The greatest discoveries one can make is to discover that you can do what you were afraid you couldn't do. Fear keeps one back in a dark shell and blocks the light from passing through. Why would you allow yourself to be scared of things that are untrue.
Worry is faith in the negative, trust in the unpleasant, assurance of disaster and belief in defeat. Worry is a magnet that attracts negative conditions.
Faith is more of a powerful force that creates positive circumstances. Worry wastes today's time to clutter up tomorrow's opportunities with yesterday's trouble.
Fear and worry are not distant cousins but close friends and brothers. People who let them in their life fail to try but try to fail because they refused to shut the fear trigger in them. Look around you, the greatest regret one will have is to discover that what he is scared of never really existed. An old man was asked what had robbed him of joy in his life. His reply was, "Things that never happened." Fear wants you to run from things that are not after you and limit your ability.
Count your courage instead of your fears cause fear is a darkroom where negative develop while worry gives a small thing a big shadow. If you allow your fears to alter your behaviour, you are already defeated. Fear is faith that something won't work out, but when you do something you fear, the fear will disappear because courage is always a step ahead of fear. But if you keep your fears instead of letting courage in, you discover that fear blocks your dream cause it have grown bigger than your Faith.
Engage in what you love most
Dont listen to fear, stay away from the negative people. Conquer your thoughts and fear, then you can conquer your environment

F.E.A.R: FALSE EVIDENCE APPEARING REAL

WHY I HATE SCHOOL BUT LOVE EDUCATION
While growing up, i was told that for me to be great, "Education is the key". But if education is the KEY then school should be the LOCK. But it's suprising how the school have so many locks and i wonder how one key will open diffrent locks.
Going through certain stages in life, my parents always say make me proud, be at the top of the class and i always do that, for aslong as i was ontop of the class with a high score and i passed my exam,i was kul with them. The basis of education is not about going to school and passing the exam. Education is about inspiring one's mind and not filling students head with someone's opinion on a subject. Look at it William shakespeare was educated in the art of writing novels, stephen spillperge is educated in the art of movie production and directing..
Education is not about passing exams, its about doing what you love doing at your very best. Most students are written off by their teachers because they are slow in learning. Teachers are meant to be a role model and source of encouragement to their students and not dream killers. Ben Carson was written off by his teachers but he is now educated. We have to re-access our motives and define our aims when we talk about education. Am not saying school is bad all am saying is we should redefine how we view education especially in Africa.
Look at other countries, in their schools they are provided with other forms of education not just books, look at it, they learn how to play drums,sing,dance,sports e.t.c but most african country fail to do so, all they think about is book. Steve Wonder was educated in the art of playing the keyboard and singing, where did he learnt that from? You should know the answer.
Every one has to follow his/her dream in what form of education he/she wants, if one wants to be a footballer, he should be sent to a football academy,if one wants to be an actor/actress, they should be sent to schools related to theater arts, if you want to be a drummer or a singer then you should be sent to a music school. And not a school that gives only theory on your dreams instead of pratical works, not a school that is filled with diffrent courses of diffrent dreams that are not functional. Education is a thing of the mind. They say school expands your horizion,i will agree to that when the school is about the dreams you have the education you wish to obtain relating to the art you want to be good at. Some say if you don't go to school you are uneducated, tell that to MALCOM X, who was renowed for what he learnt in the prision.
Education is about your dreams,your goals. There is a saying which says that "if you don't build your dreams,someone else will hire you to build theirs" and i hear some say they dont work for the money and i tell them do you work for charity or do they need some clearity.
Money is the only medium to measure worldy sucess not your degree. Lets see the statistic Bill Gates,Steve Jobs(Rip),Oprah Winfrey,Mark Zearugburg, none of this individual graduated from a higher level institution but they were all educated.
Jesus Christ,Mother Theresa, Prophet Mohammed,The twelve disciples, were they uneducated or unsuccessful? I once watched Jay Jay Okocha take a free kick, and as the side of his nick sponsored boot hit the ball,it went up into the air and changed its direction along the way,i saw how the keeper kept looking at the ball as if he was reciting the laws of projectile motion, before the net hug the ball as a prodigal son returing to his father, the country were i came from erupted into cheers,looking at myself i said damn their are so many ways to be an educated man.

WHAT INSPIRES ME
Tell me I "cannot" do, be or have something-- and that is the easiest way to inspire me.
What push me beyond limit is when the imposible becomes possible-- to face a problem and never give up, no matter how challenging.
I was called Da-law by my peers because i love to break the law of elasticity of a material and streach beyond my elastic limit. I ask myself why are people easily written off? Or should i say why do people think they are better than others?
I discovered that i was not the best student, but i try to set a standard for myself, i do things other students fail to do and that gives me an edge above them but that does not mean am the best. Reading a book titled "Become all you can be" by Norman Vincent Peale, i discovered that why most peolpe are not moved into action is not because they can't be moved but because they lack self belief, they only focus on the negative and forget that all criticism can be chanelled into a powerful force of change. Most people fail to think and work out their strategy and never allow their censor to guide them. You don't let what you are made of to come out. Prove them wrong by going past your limits but know when to stop before you will be considered a success freak! All inspiring story of great achievers started from some where.
Ben carson was written off, but today he is the best neurosurgeon. Albert Enstine was called a slow learner, but he is considered one of the most intelligent man that ever lived. Turn all bad report about you into a greater force against your foes, its a gradual process and its never to late to change your attitude towards yourself.
