Success.. A thin line!

I remember youth service in Katsina.. a state in the northern parts of Naija..
it was hot.. it was different.. it was fun.
Might get around to blogging about it one day..

Anyways one thing that always struck me was their fascination with Honda vehicles..
Sayin’ three out of every five was a honda is no exaggeration..

Then recently I read the autobiography of Soichiro Honda..
The founder of the Honda motor company.

He said, “when I started manufacturing motorcycles, prophets of doom who were at that time my best friends came to discourage me. Why don’t you simply set up a garage? You will rake in lots of money they said; there are lots of cars to repair all over the country.”
“I didn’t listen to their pessimistic advice” Honda said, “So, beside my research laboratory I started up the Honda Company on September 24 1948”…
The rest, as they say.. is history..

It’s striking that....
when push comes to shove, you alone are solely responsible for your success or failure..
not what your friends think..

As humans we’re influenced by our thoughts.. our emotions.. our actions..
Our thoughts maybe positive or negative.. our emotions maybe positive or negative.. our actions maybe positive or negative..
Ultimately, it’s our thoughts.. emotions.. and actions.. that make that line so thin..

I been told I smile too much.. I always say it’s because of how I view my 'cup'.
Is yours.. “half full or half empty”

Jose Mourinho, the ex-Chelsea manager once said “Human beings are victims of habit.. Positivity and optimism breed success..”

One year later they won their first trophy in 50 years..
