Start Today


There was a little boy whose father asked him one day: “What would you like to be when you grow up?” and he replied, “I’d like to be the best footballer.” The next day, as early as 5am, his dad came to his room and woke him up. When he checked the time, he was surprised that his father would wake him up so early. He said, “Daddy it is just 5am, I still have to sleep.” But his father said, “No, my boy. Last night you said you wanted to be the best footballer. If that is going to happen, then you have got to learn to wake up early, jog and train every day. If you do this until you are eighteen years old, you will be the best.” Reluctantly, the boy got up from bed and went to jog with his daddy. The interesting part of the story is that the boy ended up being the best. What does this tell us? It is not enough to make a decision for success; you have got to wake up early and start heading towards your goal. You can’t still be in bed at 8am in the morning and expect to be the best; it does not work that way. It is not enough to wish for things, start heading towards it.

Start reading materials on how to be the best in your field. Start training towards it from now. Make sure you are studying/planning/preparing for it every single day. Start reading the right materials and invest in your mind. Time waits for no man, people are moving forward, what about you? Dont wait till tomorrow; start today; start today.
