“You don't get something for nothing. You can't have freedom for free. You won't get wise with the sleep still in your eyes, no matter what your dreams might be” – Neil Peart.

There is no such thing as something for nothing. It is a lazy mind that expects success on a platter of gold. The truth is, if it is too good to be true, it is really true. “There is nothing like something for nothing, it has always been give and take. Life is like cultivated fertile field, what you sow is what you reap” says Uchenwa.

If you truly want your name to be written in the book of achievement, you should know you have to create value that people are ready to pay for.

Success is Close by, Be Prepared

“Preparation is hard work, running is the easy part” – Edwin Moses.

We focused on achievement, but never ask questions on how to get there. You have a role model, pray to achieve such stardom, but do you also prepare and pray to have what it takes to face challenges your role model overcome before getting there. There is no such thing as overnight success, not even through luck. Seneca knew quite well before he says “Luck is where opportunity meets preparation.”

Be The Lucky One

“Keep going and the chances are you will stumble on something. Perhaps when you are least expecting it. I never heard of anyone stumbling on something while they were sitting down” - Charles Kettering.

Fortune we all think is by accident, but not. Luck is well known for achieving what you don’t deserve; could that be true? I don’t think so. In reality, there is no way you can have it, if your effort is not in that direction. Keep this in mind; you are also going to hit the luck soonest in your area of endeavour, but not by waiting for it to come over, you have to go after it. How soon it will be is a question you should stop asking, but if you still need answer to it, I think you will consider this to be the best. “I've found that luck is quite predictable. If you want more luck, take more chances. Be more active. Show up more often.” - Brian Tracy.
