HAS YOUR TODAY ENSLAVED YOUR TOMORROW?

-


Anything worthwhile demands your attention, focus, and perhaps, a bit of sacrifice. Be it your personal growth, business, relationships, or life in general, you need to put effort into it to gain desired outcomes.

In pursuit of a far-flung future, there are sacrifices we make today. We probably relegate our short terms desires, goals, and needs to the back burner in anticipation of achieving that big picture, the long-term goals. And, many times, it’s needed when you do have that long-term vision.

As humans there are some sacrifices that we make to reach certain levels in life, a sacrifice is a price paid  to gain other considerations or to give away something valuable to get at least a possibility to gain something else of value.

For you to become successful, you must be willing to make a sacrifice of allowing "your tomorrow to enslave your today", people who allow their today to be enslaved by tomorrow are great people, they are people with vision, they reason beyond others imagination and they see beyond the physical eyes.

Allowing your tomorrow to enslave your today entails depriving yourself joy and comfort at a moment because of  a better life tomorrow.

Sadly, as youths often times we aspire for greater heights in life yet we do not give tomorrow a chance to enslave our today, and this lead to many unaccomplished dreams. Always give  tomorrow a chance to enslave your today whenever situation calls for, it will not wound your pride!

Tears of an orphan

-
Amina sat alone on the cold, dusty floor of her small orphanage, her eyes streaming with tears. She had just received news that her only living relative, an aunt she had never met, had refused to take her in. At 12 years old, Amina felt like she had nowhere left to turn. She had grown up in the orphanage, surrounded by other children who, like her, had been abandoned or lost their families. But Amina's story was different. She remembered her parents, their warm smiles and loving hugs. She remembered the way her mother used to sing to her, the way her father used to play with her. As she cried, Amina's thoughts drifted back to those happy memories. She wished she could turn back time, wished she could be with her parents again. But life had other plans. The orphanage's strict matron, Mrs. Jones, entered the room, her expression softening slightly as she saw Amina's tears. "Amina, child, don't cry. You'll get through this. You're strong." Amina ...

John the Lover Boy

-
John was the kind of guy who left a trail of broken hearts wherever he went. His charming smile, chiseled features, and smooth talking skills made him a magnet for women. He knew his way around a conversation, always landing on the right topics, and making each woman feel like she was the only one in the world. His friends would often joke that John had a PhD in flirting, and they weren't far off. He could effortlessly charm his way into and out of just about any situation. But beneath his polished exterior, John was a complex character, driven by a deep-seated need for validation. Growing up, John had always felt like he was living in the shadow of his older brother, who seemed to excel at everything he did. His parents, though well intentioned, had inadvertently fueled John's insecurity by constantly comparing him to his brother. As a result, John developed a coping mechanism he became a people pleaser, desperate to be liked and admired by those around him. Women were dr...

Love in the Time of Sunset

The sky was ablaze with hues of orange, pink, and purple as the sun dipped below the horizon. It was a moment Aisha had been waiting for, a moment she had been anticipating for what felt like an eternity. She stood on the beach, the warm sand beneath her feet, and gazed out at the sea. The waves gently lapped at the shore, creating a soothing melody that seemed to match the rhythm of her heart. Aisha's thoughts were with him, with Kofi, the man she loved. They had met by chance on this very beach, and their connection had been instant. As the sun began to set, Kofi had promised to meet her here, to watch the sunset together. As if on cue, Aisha heard the sound of footsteps behind her. She turned to see Kofi walking towards her, a smile on his face and a bouquet of flowers in his hand. "Hey," he said, as he reached her side. "I brought your favorite flowers." Aisha's heart skipped a beat as she took in the beauty of the flowers, the way they seemed to ...
