Don’t simply accept what life offers you, make a demand for what your life is yearning for; life does not give you what you deserve but what you demand. Another significant story is the story of THE PRODIGAL SON in the bible. A young man walked up to his father and demanded for his inheritance, and that’s something he should get when his father is dead but he got his while his father was still alive. An immature young man; he soon squandered everything on reckless living.

He began to live a miserable life and then all of a sudden he remembered that he had a wealthy father who even his servants lived well; so he decided to instead of languishing in penury return to his father and asked to become one of his servants. When he showed up, instead of making him a servant, his father threw a party!

You see, life can turn out and will always turn out better than you think when you set goals and begin to pursue them. The end result will always be better than you’ve anticipated. While the party was on, the elder brother of the prodigal son arrived from the farm; heard the loud noise, music and merry making and asked questions. One of the servants informed him that his brother had just returned and their father had thrown the party to celebrate his return.

This offended the older brother and he walked up to his father and demanded an explanation; he reminded his father of the circumstances surrounding his brother’s initial action and then registered his surprise at their father’s celebration of his return. His father responded and said “look here boy, its not easy to lose a son, your brother was lost, now he’s come back; but by the way, you’ve been here all this while and everything was yours for the asking”.

When you ask you receive, when you seek you find, when you knock the doors will be open for you; so ask for everything that belongs to you by destiny, try your hands on something new. If you climb a tree to pluck a fruit, you won’t find it on the stem, you have to move on the branches and some of those branches can be delicate such that by the time you are close to the fruit you will observe that the branch will bend over because of your weight and may likely want to fall but you won’t pluck that fruit except you go there. The greatest successes in our world require for us to take great risks; dare it, make moves, until you make moves you don’t make waves.

Also you must LEARN TO ACT. Confront your fears; all of us have been taught to fear. However, some people act in spite of their fears. When you face your fears, they seem to diminish in size. Do the very thing you’ve been afraid to do all along and notice the impact it will have on your mind. Do it, take those forms and write that examination; whatever it is you’ve wanted to do, do it now. Do the things you fear and the dearth of fear is certain.

I want to sincerely believe that you are free from the feeling of helplessness, that the lion in you is rising today, and that the real you, the powerful and capable you is about to arise to take what belongs to you in life. I believe that right after now you’re going to rise up and do what you have delayed for so long. Action delayed is destiny delayed, and destiny delayed is the devil’s delight. He’s been happy about your delay, but I challenge you today to throw your heart over the bar and your body as well as every aspect of your life will follow.

You will succeed with outstanding success!
