Statement of strength and courage

Hello everybody! Eku deede iwoyi o!

Someone once said, ‘Your life does not get better by chance, it gets better by change’. Wow! What he was really saying to us is that life is not the lottery that we think it is where we're just waiting for our lucky day, our time, our moment, our number to come up. He said, I want you to understand that chance has very little to do with your life, or my life, being successful. It's all about being better because of the changes that we're making. And that's a choice. You see, I choose to change so that I can grow. Growth always means that there's a change in your life, and the author understood that when a crisis comes, it creates a lot of change within us. In fact, in times of crisis, we have the chance to go through 3 zones, 1. Fear zone, 2. Learning zone and 3. Growth zone. Don`t count your losses now, count your lessons, because they will help you grow internally and externally. But the writer said I want you to understand the right you have to choose to make the right changes in your life, and that determines how well you will survive, live through, and overcome that crisis. Put behind you what you can`t do but put before you what you can do such as learning a new skill. Put behind you the difficulties, but put before you the progress. Stay focused and your world will expand.

We celebrate with you, if your birthday is in August. We wish you and every one an Augustus visitation in the month. Congratulations!

Have a wonderful month everybody! Stay safe, stay strong, and stay healthy!
