YOU FALL BEFORE YOU RISE
In the school of life there are many lessons we learn as we move on the ladder of our destiny, some can be very painful and others joyous. There are pits, valleys, mountains and hills, low lands, rivers to cross and decisions to make that may or may not affect generations.
I have come to understand a fact in life that seems to be very true across all boards; it’s a fact in life that cannot be disputed by either religion or science. I have learnt over my short space of existence in life that, there cannot be A RISE without A FALL. In order words, there cannot be an end without a beginning. To help us all understand my short article we will define rise as to spring up or grow, we spring up from where? from the ground.
A fall is to come down freely from a higher to a lower position, moved by the force of gravity. Some falls are unplanned whiles others maybe planned but they are a fall. These are all facts of life that happen across board from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe.
About 90% to 98% of the world great men that has ever lived or are living today fell at appoint in their lives or began from the ground before they rose to their current level in their life today. A fall is bitter but at the end it pays when you are guided by determination, persistence, and perseverance.
These men fell at a point in their life before they came out mightily, men like Bill Gates fell from Harvard University after his first few months at school to start Microsoft, Michael Dell, Nelson Mandela, Kofi Annan (Formal UN Secretary General), Jonathan Priluck, Donald Trump (The US president elect), Barack Obama, Oprah Winfrey, Steve Jobs and many others. Almost all the social media predicted a fall for Donald Trump and a win for H. Clinton but Mr Trump rose up mightily to win the race. All these men we see and admire today had fallen at a certain stage of their life but with determination, hard work, persistence, and perseverance they arose to achieve their goals.
You may be down today my friend but don’t give up, NO! You can’t give up, YOUR SET TIME TO RISE IS NOW. You May be sick today but your healing is just around the corner, Oh Yes, you may be poor very poor but don’t give up you are the next rich man to cause a change in your world. The keys of change are within your fall, pick it up and open the door of your upliftment. Arise for change, Arise from your fall, you are destine for greatness. Thanks for your time and for your interest
