Discovering the Fountain within You

By Adunke Olatunji

Life will always go the way it is defined. The potentials of great accomplishments would be at work when it is pragmatically activated. In the process of activation, what drives the motive is essential otherwise the result may be poorly delivered. The empty bucket that we walk around with, can be labeled many things. Excuses are the most common label. Then there are others like bad luck, not good enough, it is very tough, it is not possible for me, there is no one to help me etc.

The sad part is that these empty buckets remain empty while ironically, there is within you the fountain of limitless opportunities and potential waiting to be tapped into. The question is how can one identify this fountain and how can one drink deep from this fountain. Surprisingly the question is not too difficult to answer. However, one must be ready to make an effort to find the answer and to then make double that effort to reach into the fountain within you and utilize it well.

Do a personal SWOT analysis – Do an objective evaluation of your personal strengths, weakness, opportunities that you see being available to you and the potential threats or difficulties that can derail your success. Surprisingly you will find that all that is required for your well-being and happiness is well within you. You will discover new strengths and opportunities and you will also note that the antidote for many of your weaknesses and imaginary threats are also within you. All you need to do is delve in and find it.

Move out of your comfort zone – For the vast majority, an unwillingness to step out of their comfort zone has made them look at their potential and the opportunities possible like a frog stuck in a well. Within you lies the balance that will ensure you limit your desires, be lavish with your gifting and tap into unlimited joy. Your goals are then reduced to being happy and making the world around you happier.

Delve in and discover your creativity, your inner strength, undiscovered talents and re-engineer your life with these. Remember, no achievement is actualised on a platter of gold but when you push, things will move and ways are cleared. The opportunities are waiting for an action to trigger them into realities.
