The Fall of a Man


When you see a man fall, don't laugh, learn.
Because you are on your way up.

And just as everyone will fall once or twice in his or her lifetime, you can easily fall too. So my brother, my sister, be wise enough to learn from one's mistakes or failures.

Because the very  things that tempt men and women to fall, you and I are not free from that temptation yet. For some of us, it will be a valuable lesson we can come out of by grace,  to teach others. For some, it will  end us unfortunately.
And you are not free from the snares and weaknesses that can unpredictably make you stumble and fall as you rise through the ranks of life.

Or do you think you are any different from any man who has fallen?  Or do you think you are too special or immune to a fall???

No.  I am not. You are not either.
You are susceptible to snares and the entrapments of failure. Oh you man, Oh you woman.
Do not be tempted to think of yourself highly than you ought to. But in humility, acknowledge your mistakes and faults and dust yourself self off the dirt of failure and weaknesses.
And help a fallen brother rise again as you once fell. Hold a sister up a again from the floor which you once fell on. For that is the definition of a true female empowerment.

Because when you do laugh or ridicule the failures of a brother, a sister or even your worst enemy without learning from it, you too open yourself up to the same failure prematurely.

The fall of a man is not the end of his life. The greatness of any man or woman must not be judged by the number of cars or houses he acquires from his sweat but by the number of stumbles and falls he or she endures and overcomes.
And yet still pushes on towards the mark of success.

This life and this world is so full of snares and temptations. Beware!!!!!!

How Failure Breeds Great Achievers

I get asked by many people a lot of times... Why do you always like writing motivational stories and messages to inspire others. What inspires you, and what do you get from doing that  every morning anyway? My answer has always been simple. To prevent people  especially you from giving up in life when you face the least form of failure. My greatest wish is to provide hope, faith and reason for you not to give up in life. I would like you to think of me   as your symbol of Inspiration for each day. Most people, ironically, think  that people who always inspire, motivate and encourage other people don't have problems,  they think they have a cozy and smooth life, that's why they are able to encourage people. But believe me, that's not true. On the contrary, those kind of people like me, are the kinds of people facing all sorts of problems, challenges and difficulties in life. The trick here, however is, I have chosen to look at  my failures, challe...

Everything Is Temporary

Corona Virus has proved that everything around us is so temporary. Things that our lives revolved around...work, gym, malls, movies and other social activities have all gone for a toss. These were things which used to occupy our time and attention virtually everyday, so much that we neglected what was most important to us in the first place. We are learning to live without them now, as our only option these days, is to stay indoors to keep ourselves safe. It is teaching us all  one thing,  that in the end, our home and families really matter. They are our point of safety in difficult times like these. So should this crisis come to an end, which will be very soon,   do know where your priorities lie henceforth. It is not in your work, or your insatiable ambitions. It is with your family.

An Attitude Of Gratitude

To have an attitude of gratitude is the greatest virtue anyone  can have. Because it shows that you are content with the little you have and a happy expectation of all you are yet to have and enjoy in life. If you really want your life to change, then you need to add the habit of  gratitude. I realised that our generation of today take the power of being grateful for granted. Because we are a generation that is burnt on having more and more everyday, we quickly lose sight of the important things we already have that is keeping our life afloat at this moment. It's almost as if each one of us is in competition with one another when it's not supposed to be so. I was born with a disability from birth, an advanced form of poliomyelitis. I had twisted hands and legs as a child so I was only able to crawl on the floor. That was my only way to move. I hated that and myself so much because I wanted to walk just like everybody else. I was consumed so much by hate and ingratitude ...
