GIFTED: Graced By Nature

in #hive-1261529 days ago

None of us Knew what transpired at our birth, just grew up to find out who we are, either a male or a female, tall or short, fat or slim, dark or fair and everyother features we have, along the line certain things began to make sense to us, so we just adapt, learn and grow, grabbing certain opportunities that comes our way , we began to uncover certain traits that makes us unique so he held unto it.

I have seen some people who just grow to discover who they really are and capitalise on it, build and leverage on what they have been gifted with by nature, for instance all country of the earth are blessed by nature with certain natural resources, now these resources are unique to these country in economics or in business we call it a competitive advantage point, these is what common to a particular country which is uncommon or scarce in another country so because of that countries will now have to engage in trade so one country can service the other with what they have more and thus an exchange is initiated.

A person can discover that he or she is blessed in certain area, either intellectually, morally physically sound, having competence in one area or another, these is aslo called a persons selling point, what soever that you can do, if you are able to gain mastery and competence in that area, you can leverage on it to excel and build relevance.

We all have gift, we are gifted in different areas, there are things we can do better, services we can render, skills we are excellent at, if we are able to discover this on time we would be able to go far enough in life, the reason why i feel most people are lacking behind in certain areas is because they really have not looked inward to self discovery, instead they are blinded by fanaticism, seeing how others are better than they, wishing they were that person or this person which also has plunged them into depression, low self-esteem, self comparison among other things.

Everyone is unique in their own ways and special too, however i feel background, upbringing, environment, family status among other factors have some big role to play here, you see especially in Africa were lots of families like 80% of the population live below the poverty line, in such cases families are unable to provide necessary support for their children and household, you can't compare these to families that are well to do, sending their children to good schools were they can get good quality and sound education and later on exposing them to various opportunities to leverage on, these foundation plays a crucial role in determining how well the future of that child turns out.

However i love the circumstances somehow cause it naturally pushes you up to go all out of your comfort zone, i can boostly say most of all wealthy folks that i know today all over the world started from the very scratch to were they are now, i see that as a principle, that if you can look inward you will see and discover what you are good at and wether the resources are available or not, you can start from scratch and build and empire of wealth even for your next generation, self discovery is a powerful tool, no matter whatever circumstance you find yourself there is always a way out, think positive, think strategically. Think inward, cause the anwers that you seek lies within.
