DREAMS DO COME TRUE ONLY IF YOU FOLLOW THE RIGHT PATH

So many times we all wish we could turn back the hands of time to make some wrongs right, we lost our way/focus on the way and start blaming people especially love ones around us about what we did not achieve, we often forget that we are the author of our life, the only person who could determine how his/her life is going to be.

We wish so much to be young again, “if only I could be young again, I will do this and do that” we often say to ourselves. Have you ever thought about what you can do now, the lives of people you can change and make an impact on, have you thought about being better than how you were in the time past, have you thought of what you can actually achieve in life now that things seems so rough, have you thought of appreciating people around you for the good works they have and are still doing?

I remember a story I once stumbled on, This particular guy married and blessed with two kids, blamed his wife every day for his loss, he feels like he has not achieved enough and he feels he stopped living in his dream because he stopped being the famous, good looking basketballer he used to be when he was young, he grew up and lost his way.  Every day he wished he could just turn the hands of time and be young again in other to put things right, but you know what. Wish they say comes true.

He actually became young again and he could do just anything he wants to do, but the funniest part was when he saw his kids and what they all do and pass through in school, he realized he has not been much of a great father to them, he has not been a great mentor especially to his son, he saw his wife and realized she also had to kill her dream just to be with him, but she on the other hand was trying her possible best to give the children the best love and proper care they deserve and also trying to start up a little business all over again, he became so sad and wished he had seen all these things before it is too late, but you know the best part is “He who chooses the right path will never go astray”. He decided to follow his heart once again and wished everything would be normal once again, he prayed for peace to reign in his home again with him doing what was right this time around.

 At last things ended up well for him. Then he realized that, even if you were unable to achieve all that you ever dreamed of when growing up, you can actually make a difference at your present age. You can change the world at whatever age and time you stop blaming others for your failure, because the race they say is not to the swift, starting well does not really matter it is finishing well that really matters in life.

Colonel Sanders became the founder of Kentucky Fried Chicken at the age of 88, remember that he passed through a lot and at age 65 he was ready to commit suicide before he thought to himself, “There is something I know how to do best, better than anybody around”. He used his secret recipe to start up again at an old age.

It is never too late to start up again, it is never too late to achieve your dreams, it is never too late to make an impact. It is never too late to become the billionaire you have always dreamed of being. It is never too late to be happy, it is never too late to rise up again. Stop blaming people for your mistake, rather blame yourself and pick up the piece and start again. “DREAMS DO COME TRUE ONLY IF YOU FOLLOW THE RIGHT PATH”.
