One of the very few individuals that I have personally come in contact with and I know, whose future is very bright, is this young man called Ephraim Hosanna. He is a medical student in the University of Nigeria, Enugu Campus. 

From the time that he joined FECA in Calabar up to the time that he came to FECA in Nsukka, I have been asking myself what is it about this guy that draws  my attention. I feel like he is my twin brother because we share a lot of things in common and to an extent, we look alike, smile alike, are same in terms of temperament, voracious readers we are, and  other stuff. 

So, today, I want to share one of the posts that he made on social media where he talked about NATURE and how nature helps to give us more than what we ask from it. The post reads thus:

....................................................................................................

"Have you ever had some funny experience which you thought was normal only to realize that you are the one responsible for your actions and inaction, well here's mine.

I made up my mind that I was going to take responsibility for my financial life

Boom, I signed up for a course and was blessed with the best coach in the world.

The classes were amazing and filled with fun, I had no doubt I was on my way to financial freedom. But soon I realized my coach isn't only teaching me on how to create wealth but also how to sustain the wealth.

Wow that's so much value.

Two days ago (Sunday) I was meant to have a Class with My Coach, but I traveled to a place that same day. That's not bad I thought, at least it's an online class and I could still join the class irrespective of where I am.

Funny enough I was wrong, the network there wasn't just terrible but also frustrating.

I explained to my coach and of course she understood, at least it isn't my fault the network should take the blame or better still this country should be blamed.

Funny me.

But then in a Jiffy it dawned on me that I had missed the previous class that held last week and I've missed another.

That's when I understood how the universe works.

You see eeeh, in the world of success, NATURE IS NEUTRAL. What you decide is what it helps you to achieve.

If you decide to procrastinate, NATURE will help you procrastinate better.

If you decide to make excuses, don't worry, NATURE will assist you with sweet excuses well packaged with many good reasons better than the ones you have for yourself.

Look, I missed one class because I thought I was sick, Nature assisted me with a better excuse in the next class (That's the network issue).

If you make up your mind to be successful and you are intentional about it, then NATURE will definitely assist you.

Learn from my experience."

From what he writes in the above narrative, one can not help but agree that the points in the narrative are facts. Because we all have our experiences about life and in one way or another, there have been times when things did not work out fine for us just because we procrastinated, or because we were scared to take steps towards the goals, or because we gave excuses, or because we blamed someone for being the reason why we are where we are at the moment. All these are are just going to be taken in by Mother Nature and whichever is the case, Mother Nature would always exaggerate the points for us, and give us more reasons why this and that can be done or cannot be done. 

So we must be very careful. Because the Bible says that out of the heart  flows the issues of life (Proverbs 4:23). That is to say that we should guard our hearts with all diligence, because out of it flows what we get from life (Mother Nature).

 

What is your opinion about Mother Nature?
