Dear Entrepreneur,
Many people say that the secret to success is to discover that one thing you’re great at doing, and make people pay you for doing it. But I’m of a different school of thought. I believe the secret to success is to discover that one thing that brings you happiness and make people pay you for doing it. You don’t have to be great at it. As long as you enjoy every moment of it, then you’re successful.
Here’s how I see life:
Jesus turned water into wine. He also fed five thousand people with five loaves of bread and two fish. So you could be water (average), and he will turn you into wine (greatness). You could be average when compared to others, just like “five loaves of bread and two fish”, and he will use you to reach and inspire millions. But you have to wake up every day, do your best, and leave the rest to him. You have to work hard no matter if you think you’re not as talented or skilled enough to be great. Just do your best, and that’s enough.
There had to be water for him to turn to wine. There had to be five loaves and two fish for him to multiply and feed five thousand people. So there has to be an effort from you, for him to bless you.
There’s no food for a lazy man.
With love,
Chidi
