I was born in Africa and everyone in my neighbourhood strongly believed that success was elsewhere.Things like you had to live in a certain suburb, city, country and to a greater extent continent.What really struck me hard is nobody ever thought of what they will be doing when they migrate.It was like if i move automatically success will follow me.
Our parents were not wired to identify talents in their own kids everything was left to the teachers at school.But the educational system was rigid and one directional whereby the teachers followed a strict programme guided by the syllabus with headmasters and the government making sure its adhered to.Exams were the final judgement as to wether you will make it life or not.You had to pass certain subjects without them your life was very hard.Your talent was irrelevant your God given gift was not recognised because nobody had the time to look at you as in possession of a gift.So your only way out was to study hard and pass.
In the late 90s and early 2000 people started leaving for other countries hoping that success will be automatic.But because they did not know their talents they still got stuck.Their mindsets are not set to tap into their natural God given talents so they still struggle and not fully realise their full potential despite being in a different location.Like what one great philosopher once said "A LIZARD IN AFRICA WILL NEVER BE A CROCODILE IN EUROPE".So folks we need to discover our talents so that we not round pegs in square holes.We also need to understand a well equiped kitchen will not convert you into a world class chef but it will expose your short comings.Let us help our kids identify their God given talents because at the moment the grave yards are full of potential which never benefited the living.Like what Elijah did to Elisha 1KINGS 19 we need more and more people that mentor and motivate so that people can tap and unlock their talents.
Remember the Wright brothers made the first plane with no money or degrees but just the talent and strong will power
