FOCUS

FOCUS:
Focus defines the way we think, react and act.
Life is filled with everything you would want but what you get at the end of the day is dependant upon what you have decided to FOCUS on. As acronemed in my book, Thoughts Are Things;
F - Follow
O - One
C - Course
U - Until
S - Successful
Now,  when you look at the various things which  people do in life, a good number of them is because that is what the doer has focused on. Your focus is your stronghold in any field of life. I have come to understand that more than many times you only achieve what you have decided to focus on.
Most of the times you can always tell what the person was focusing on by looking at what has been achieved.
Your power to achieve is in your concentration ability to FOCUS.
Your actions are controlled by your choice of your FOCUS.
Focus on your life because that is where your power to achieve lies. Never let yourself down.
Focus! Focus! Focus! and then Focus.

Environment matters.

Environment Matters:
If you told my mother 23 years ago that she was pregnant with a child who was going to be an author, she would have had not believed you because her society taught her that you can raise a child without expecting them to be exceptional. Our societies in Zambia, Africa and even the world at most raises children without expecting excellence from the raised children.
If you told me 10 years ago that I was going to be an author, I would honestly laugh at you and tell you that you don't know what you are talking about. This would be because you probably would be the first one to have had told me that, in addition I would also have told you that you just don't know my background. Listen, I am not ignorant to the fact that there are some of us who come from harsh background which cannot even allow you to breath the air from urban areas. I am aware of that. Look, the whole point is on us making efforts to surround ourselves with the right environment. If you were not born in it then create it.
If today you tell me that I will not amount to anything, trust me I will not believe you because the environment which I am in now has nurtured me to believe that all things are possible I just have to decide which one to do. This did not just come on a silver platter, often and many times I had to make efforts with every opportunity I had to associate myself with the right kind of people. Look here, not everyone is good for your life. Mr Felix Banda otherwise 'GALAMUKANI' puts it in this way, "WE DON'T JUST BECOME". In the process of becoming one of the things you have to look out for is your networks which later entails your environment. He who walks with the wise shall be wise but a companion of fools shall perish. This is true in many aspects of life, he who walks with successful people shall be successful but an environment of failures makes it impossible to succeed.
Do yourself a favor, surround yourself with people who challenge you to do good, people who challenge you to do great. You will be amazed what you can achieve. Never give up until you are in an environment which makes you believe that IT IS POSSIBLE.
