MOMENTS OF DISCOVERY
WITH IK ANYANWU
Everyone knows that the youths of today are more exposed
than their kinds of yesterdays. We should therefore stop seeing our youths as
unenlightened or ignorant.
I would be organizing
more Seminar/ training like so that people can start playing significant roles
to save our future by engaging in entrepreneurship skills via making use of their God given talents. Leave
a purposeful and meaningful life not just existing to “pay rent”. We are all
part of this universe and it’s about time someone takes up his/her microphone
on the life stage and sing out his/her song. Each one of us have a song.
And to
play significant roles to save our future.
SINGS: “ No one else can preach your sermon. No one
can else, can sing your song.
No one else can do what God has chosen you to do. Your gift were given
from above. Your Blessings from the father love so use your gift to the glory
of God.”
In preparing this talk,
I have tried not to appear political, academical but to be a life
coach. This is because I know there are
speakers that are more suited for that purpose than myself. I am an exceptional person; my orientation
cannot be well captured by mere rhetoric or theories but to share with you from
my orientations and beliefs - based on my own personal experiences and
interactions at each stage in life.
We have been around and also seen a lot but the truth is
that things have not always been easy.
I have also suffered, sacrificed and benefited. Everyone should sacrifice in order to reap a
bounty harvest thereafter. This does not speak of selling your body or selling
your soul to the devil in quest to make money. Several other things contributed
in shaping my personality/ life today. I
have lived and believed it. And this is what has helped me in life: - the
firm believe that my onw destiny lies in my own hands
WHO CAN BE AN
ENTREPRENEUR?
I know everyone can
attain greatness in life. Anyone can become an entrepreneur. The problem is do
you believe that you can? Are you prepared to take the bold steps required?
This are questions only you can answer.
Yes it all begins from your mind, what do you see?
Before I proceed, Please permit me to Share with you quote
from OMELETO [Video Plays]
“Its not death that most people are scared of. It is getting to the end
of life only to discover that you never
truly lived.
There was a study done of 130 elderly people on their sick
bed. facing death, close to their last breath. They were asked to reflect about
their life's biggest regret. Nearly all of them said, they regretted not the
things they did but the things they didn't do. The risks they never took. The
dreams they didn't pursue. I ask you “would your last words be? " If only I had..."
Hey you ..."WAKE UP" why do you exist. Life
is not meant to simply work wait for the weekend and pay rent. I dont know much
but I know this, everybody in this world has a gift. And I apologize to the
black community. But I can no longer pretend. Martin Luther King? That man
never had a dream. THAT DREAM HAD HIM. People don’t choose dreams. Dreams chose
them. So the question am getting to is do you have the courage to grab the dream
that picked you? That befits you and grips you or will you let it get away and
slip through.
You know I learnt a fact about airplane the other day. Now
this was so surprising. I was talking to a pilot and he told me that many of
his passengers think planes are dangerous to fly in but he said it is more
dangerous for plane to stay on the ground. I said, "What? Like, how does
that sound?' well he said because on the ground the plane starts to RUST,
MALFUNCTION and WEAR out more faster that it ever would if it was in the air.
As I walked away, I thought "yeah makes total sense" because Planes
were built to live in the skies. And every person was built to live out the
dream they have inside. So it is, perhaps the saddest loss to live the life on
the ground without ever taking off.
See must of us are afraid of the thief that comes in the
night to steal our things. But there is a thief in your mind who is after your
dreams. His name is doubt. keep doubt
away. Because he is wanted for murder. For he has killed more dreams than
failure ever did. He wears many disguises and like a virus, will leave you
blinded, divided and turn you into a "kinda". See Kinda is lethal,
You know what a kinda is , there is a lot of kinda people. You kinda want a
career change. You kinda want to get straight As. You kinda want to get in
shape. It's a simple match no numbers to crunch. If you kinda want something.
then you will kinda gwt the results you want.
What is your dream? What ignites that spark? You can't kinda
want that. You gotta want it with every part of your whole heart. Will you
struggle? Yeah, yeah. You will struggle. No way around it. You will fall many
times but who is counting. Just remember there is no such thing as a smooth
mountain. If you want to make it to the top then there are sharp ridges that
must be stepped over. There will be times you get stressed and things you get
depressed over but let me tell you something:
Steven Spielberg was rejected from film school three times. Three
times, but he kept going.
The television executives fired Oprah Winfred that she wasn’t fit for TV but she kept going.
critics told Beyonce that she couldn't sing. She
went through depression but she kept going. STRUGGLE & CTITICISM are
prerequisite for greatness. That is the law of this universe and no one escapes
it. Because pain is life. But you can choose what type. Either the pain on the
road to success or the pain of being haunted with regret.
Do
you want my advice, don’t think twice. We have all been given a gift and that
is called life so don't blow it. You
are not defined by your past. Instead, you are born anew in each moment. So own
it NOW. Sometimes you got to leap and grow your wings on the way down. You
better get the show off before the clock runs out. Because is no overtime in
life. No do over and I know I sound like I'm preaching or speaking with force
But if you don’t use your gift, you sell not only yourself but the whole world.
So what invention do you have buried in your mind. What idea, what cure, what
skill do you have inside to bring out to this universe? Uni = One Verse= Song.
You have a part to play in this song. So grasp that microphone and be brave.
Sing your heart out on life's stage. You can not go back and make a brand new
beginning. But you can start now and
make a brand new ending.” …..unquote
Omelote

and make a brand new beginning. But you can start now and make a brand new ending"
