THE BEAUTIFUL TRUTH THAT EXISTS BETWEEN HUMILITY AND SUCCESS.
To begin with, I'll say that life though appears to be a personal journey; the truth is that you'll need to drive with your legs cling to pedals of care and humility even as you're growing in size, status, and achievements accompanied by lots of accolades and handshakes.
Although there's still a place for early exposure to love, care, and structure, instilling habits and principles that could possibly become lifelong cornerstones.
Always remember that every single step attained in life should be an addition, and you're supposed to live calculatingly. Even on the highway, allow God to be the head pilot, not you. Life is deeper than what you know about it.
As I step onto the stages of life daily, it has beautiful ways of reminding me constantly that success is a relative term.
So, irrespective of how bright you're assuming that your spotlight is shining, be quick to think always that there could be someone else's star twinkling brighter than yours.
Meeting with successful people every single day has taught me that, no matter your life accomplishments, there'll always be someone greater than you. Yours is to treat people right.
My years at work as a close protective agent have granted me golden access to world-class achievers, influencers, and king-makers. But truly, it's based on these exposures I'm well grounded.
Trust me when I say there are wealth that aren't just clean, but also built on integrity. Knowledge that isn't just vast in nature, but can also be generously shared. And to attain this height, humility plays a major role.
Counting on my achievements, among those I could consider greatest in life isn't the applause or resounding accolades; but the social wealth, talking about the connections and quality relationships nurtured. The knowledge gain from diverse minds and experiences.
So, while on the edge of rolling up from here, I'd like to end by saying that sometimes staying humble doesn't make sense to a lot of people, but that attitude (humility) could serve as a guiding principle.
In the fashion school of success, we're all just threads, woven together in a beautiful, ever-evolving design of life. Remain humble you're not being used.
Stay grateful. Stay motivated. Stay connected. Stay prayerful. Stay successful and wealthy in good health.
Have a great day.
From your handsome and lovely friend @johnpetra!!
