To Succeed, We Must Help Ourselves – the Government Cannot Help Us

It’s time for us to wake up from our slumber as Nigerians and Africans. I mean that with reference to EACH of us an individual and NOT our collective identity as a people.

I am self-driven, and have always believed no one outside of me (and the Creator) can control what happens in my life. By implication therefore, I never wait around for anyone to do anything for me, and I certainly am never prepared to beg anyone to give me anything either.

Some have called me arrogant because of that. But that’s an incorrect interpretation of my disposition. I simply know myself well enough to be sure I do not need to act subservient or over-humble to anyone, in order to get what I want.

What you need to succeed in life is too get a sound understanding of how things work, and then use that understanding to go after your goals.

My philosophy is that I alone am responsible for moving myself forward.

The actions or in-actions of others are of little or no consequence. For as long as I remain focused and determined, and persistent in pursuit of my goals, with intelligence, and faith, I will be furnished with what I need to get there!

Guess what? THAT is exactly what has happened in my life from as far back as I remember.

Initially, especially during my time in the university and later paid employment, I did it intuitively, without conscious thought. It just came naturally to me. I just knew it worked to be that way,

But when I became an entrepreneur in 2002, and began to dig deeper into principles for success achievement, to deal with severe setbacks I faced, I discovered the Science of Getting Rich (SOGR) philosophy

It took me time to learn how to make it work (and I continue learning even now), but eventually I got the hang of it, and my ability to succeed with more predictability has since grown tremendously.

A good indicator that one has gained mastery in use of this philosophy, is when you are able to get results you want, even when others complain about general downturn in fortunes e.g. during a recession. That’s what Wallace D. Wattles, the late author of that little book promised.

The SOGR philosophy is what has helped me realize that EACH of us can become a viable agent of positive change and progress in his/her own area of influence. 

I have been succeeding doing just that, in my interactions with member of my target audience on and off the web, within and outside Africa.

It’s been amazing to see the results – and I know if more of us were to adopt a similar strategy, we would transform our societies for the better.

This is what happens in many developed societies. Everyday ordinary people taking control of their lives, instead of calling on the government.

They take action to create the opportunities they want, starting where they are, with what they have. If it means working completely alone for years, like I have done, they do it. Then when success begins to come, others join in.

If you feel you do not have the time, talent, training or resources, to do it, then look for ways to support others who are doing it, so they can be better equipped to succeed. Their success will still rub off on you and the rest of society. 

Let’s stop wasting valuable time waiting for government (or indeed “God”) to do things for us that we can – with focus, determination and persistence – do by and for ourselves.

I refuse to live my life complaining about what I lack because some government failed to do what it promised to do.

Instead, I wake up daily with the mental attitude backed by unshakable faith that ALL I need will be brought within my reach at the right time by the Creator, if I take regular/daily action towards it.

We can do the same thing.

Now don’t get me wrong. Applying the SOGR philosophy will come with delays, disappointments, setbacks and attendant lack/suffering. But all of that serves the necessary purpose of purifying you to EVOLVE to the superior state you are advancing into. Nothing good that lasts comes easy!

So, what matters is for those of us who are willing get the ball rolling, while those looking for ideas decide where to come in. Sooner than later we will succeed.
