Today, I woke up in a very emotional state. I prayed, I danced nothing was getting me out of this mood. It’s 9:52 a.m., and I’ve managed to work a little, but my heart still feels heavy.
I’m not entirely sure where this article is going maybe it’s to encourage someone, maybe it’s to remind you to stay on the path God has assigned for you. So, just bear with me as I share my heart.
Your dreams are not meant to be easy.
Easy is easily reachable and easy is rarely respected.
To reach your dreams, you’ll face challenges, make sacrifices, and sometimes lose yourself in the process. It can be frustrating painfully frustrating when nothing seems to work. I understand.
When that frustration builds, I want you to let yourself cry. Yes, cry regardless of your gender. Tears release emotion. They free your chest and bring peace to your mind.
So, cry. Find a place to fall apart.
Then, after a few hours, pick yourself up and go again.
And again.
And again.
Ask God for redirection. Ask Him for help He’s the One who never leaves.
This morning, everything I saw kept reminding me that God wanted me to keep going, no matter how frustrating it felt. The message was clear: You’re closer to the end than you think.
Even on social media, every video seemed to point to the same thing keep building.
Am I frustrated? Yes.
Will I keep going? Absolutely.
Am I writing this from bed? Yes.
Still keep going.
Today, I saw that Samson Goddy met with Sam Altman, the owner of ChatGPT. Samson asked Sam to make an open-source model. Guess what? They released it and now it’s trending on GitHub! Imagine if either of them had given up when they were frustrated.
I also saw that Adora Nwodo is now a resident staff for MIT’s Masters in Mira University. She recently got the Tech Nation visa along with DIDIcodes.
These stories fired me up. They reminded me:
Grit. Pain. Endless labor. As long as God is holding your hand keep going.
You’re closer than you think.
The stars are not as far as they seem reach for them.
Don’t ask for land when God has given you the universe to conquer.
This is a new Substack dedicated to my thoughts. My other one will continue with my stories until they’re complete just so I don’t overwhelm you, my readers.
