Fish can't roar, Lion can't swim
You shine best in your natural element, Find your place and stay there.
One of the greatest tragedy in Life is to be in the wrong assignment.
No one is born to do everything, you may have an idea of everything but you're not created to do every thing, there is a place for you, a place you've been equipped to shine and maximise your potential but struggles becomes inevitable when we leave our place... Everyone created by God has been wired for a specific assignment, no one ever becomes a trailblazer chasing everything.
Can you Imagine a lion despite being the king of the jungle chasing after an eagle (he will end up frustrated). Imagine for a moment Anthony Joshua quit boxing for gymnastic, Michael Phelps quit swimming for Wrestling, Cristiano ronaldo quit football for boxing or tiger wood quit golf for basketball😂 What you will probably get is what you see when you take a fish out of the water, Struggles for Survival.
It's so unfortunate today that many of us wants to be like someone else, Lion wants to swim, Fishes want to fly, eagles wants to roar but for us to get the best out of life, We must locate our place and stay there. There is a place God has design for each individual to thrive and succeed but when you leave there you become vulnerable.
Your makeup is not a fluke, you're perfect for what you're born to do, Your ability & gifts are all given to you to excel in your assignment. When you discover your place and stay there committed, Life will become more productive, fulfilling and impactful. There is a place for you, Quit chasing everything, discover what you've been created to do.
God desire that we should THRIVE and not just SURVIVE. The only way we can have a true productive, fulfilling & impactful Life is to discover what we're born to do and stay committed to it. Don't be everywhere. Find your place and stay there.
