Have a passion for what you do

By Adam Abubakar Dangujba

Many people think the best way to go in life is the way of your passion and dwell in it. Bylan Lauren once said “My parents always told me to do what I love because that is what I will do well in.”

Amy Weber also said “My philosophy has always been do what you love and the money will follow.”

   As much as I respect this individuals, we differ in our views. To me, you can only do what you love to do if it is valuable. Also, remember that passion is not the only thing you need to start whatever it is you are interested in to achieve greatness. You need to identify which skills you have that is rare and valuable. According to Steve Jobs, the American entrepreneur, marketer, and inventor, who was the co-founder, chairman, and CEO of Apple Inc, the only way to do great work is to love what you do. And if you haven’t find it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle.

   The key to success in life in my view is to love what you do rather than doing what you love. You may study Agriculture and get the best job offer in a bank. Accepting and developing a passion in banking may enable you to become the best banker ever. You don’t have to have a degree in banking. All you need is to develop a love for the new challenge and work hard towards learning it. 

   The owner of leadership newspaper in Nigeria never studied journalism in the university, he studied pharmacy. But since his university days, he developed a passion for writing despite been a pharmacist. And that is what metamorphosed into the Leadership group today. A well-established newspaper company he started from scratch.

   Sometimes you may find out that what you love doing might not be the best skill you require to achieve success. It may be something else, something more valuable you don’t have a passion for, but as you begin to develop your passion for it, you become attached to it and it becomes part of you.

   I am a computer science student and has been my passion for the most part of my life. Yet, I didn’t choose that to be a carrier because I only love it but because it is also valuable and economically important to my life. No matter how much love you have for a particular field or talent, you also need to consider its value.

   If you love what you do, you will find out that you enjoy the time you spend doing it. You will always think about winning and fulfillment rather than money or gratification. If you haven’t develop a passion for what you do, whether it's business, film, farming, Engineering or any field, then you can never give it your best. Love what you do and you will win and achieve greatness.

Helping our teenagers to be great leaders of tomorrow; Teens life coaching skills lesson number two

Introduce your child to people they admire in the field of their interest.
Leonard Mudhangu

No one lives long enough to learn everything they need to learn starting from scratch.To be successful, we absolutely, positively have to find people who have already paid the price to learn the things that we need to learn to achieve our goals - Brian Tracey

The best way to positively groom a teenager to be a great leader of tomorrow is by introducing them to people who have either done great things in the field of their interest or who are doing well in that field. Let's take for example your child wants to be a doctor, what you need to do as a parent is to introduce your child to successful doctors for exposure so that they grow up being used to things they want to do in their lives. It’s a great way to let a teenager stay motivated in what they want to do in life.

If she or he wants to be a tennis player one day, your responsibility as a parent is to make sure you start introducing your child to great tennis players or coaches around so they start to receive some lessons. They also benefit through staying motivated by the work of their mentors. We call these people mentors of life. Teenagers need mentors in whatever they want to do.

When l discovered that l wanted to write one day and inspire people, l introduced myself to quiet a number of great authors in Zimbabwe and all over the world because l wanted to get some speaking and writing lessons and lam happy today l am inspiring nations because of these people.

Let’s help each other to take our teenagers to the top. I am still one of those people who still believe that coaching and grooming teens in a positive way is building Africa.

Go after your goals with a sense of entitlement

Leonard Mudhangu

 All successful men and women are big dreamers, they imagine what their future could be ideal in every respect, and then they work hard every day toward their distant vision, goal or purpose -Brian Tracey.

Successful people dream first what they want before the got it. They imagine themselves living their dreams. If it’s a big company running successfully they imagine it first in their mind .They build the company first in their imaginary world. This is a strong principle every man and women who are willing to attract success must do .See what you want in your mind before you have it physically.

Once you do that it gives you the power to go after your dreams with a sense of entitlement .Going after your goal or dream knowing that you possess it already is the greatest thing anyone willing to achieve

whatever they want must do. Say to your dreams its time up, l deserve you and l am going to get you no matter what. Wage a war against your circumstances and be a winner.

Go after them already knowing what size, how much and when do you want them .Visualize them and build the sense of entitlement in your dreams. Build castles in your mind before you build them physically. A dream already visualized is half achieved. So don’t stop go go after it.
