Only you!
Hello great people! I trust that the year is unfolding with greatness for you! I have been on a really short semester break, trying to recoup for the new one.
So last time I posted on "Dreams". This time I want to back it up. You see, we are mostly all born the same way, we have similar human features and so on. In fact if you are a twin(an identical one), you probably have an 'exact' look alike... or so is the general idea. truth be told,your twin has a distinct feature that disguises him from you. Now that's just on the outside.
I study psychology as part of my courses for this year and of course a lot is said about genes being the reason for some characters found in a human being. So you love the outdoor, it's probably because your dad does too. Or you sing like a nightingale, that's probably because your grandma was a singer too! This goes to show that there are a billion singers and hikers out there. But still you are the only you that exists!
Now let's assume you sing and your dream is to win the Grammy one day and make sure your music is in every home, let's say you got up and took the necessary steps...you took music classes, trained your voice and got yourself a mentor. there is the tendency for you to want to be just like your mentor...I am using a singer because this is the most relatable case senerio I can create. it is not wrong to use your mentor as a guide but trying to use your mentor as a yastic for your success is sooooooo wrong. You are unique with your own voice and style, do not strive to be your mentor, work hard at being the best version of You!
This goes for every other area....do not spend your life trying to be just like your mum or pastor, or teacher or that famous person...because that is a precious waste of you. you have something that the world has never seen and the world is in need of. Do not live your life being the shadow of somebody else. Nobody was created to be the replica of anyone. You are created to shine your own star. You are unique and different. Work at being the best version of you. Remember, there is ONLY YOU!!!

DREAMS

Hi everyone,it's been a while... I know. School has had me busy. So before I go any further, I would like to say thank you to everyone who has supported me. When the awards start flooding in, we would celebrate together!!!;)
So dreams...what's a dream anyway? I'm not talking about those videos that play in your head when you're asleep as a result of the information stored up in your sub conscious. I mean that mark you want to leave in the sands of time...that difference you are determined to make in your world. 
Now you know what I mean...hope you have a dream. If you don't, you really should because a dreamless being is a purpose less being and if you are without purpose, you are as good as not existing.#realtruth.
Dreams don't cost a dime...really. All it requires is imagination and creativity. Remember barney? If you are in my generation, you should. The kids could build castles and be kings and Queens with seconds. All they had to do was imagine something and anything and boom!!..there it was! That's how dreams are...but unlike barney, there's no magic in real life. only determination and hardwork. 
So you have a dream, what next?! I say you make a move. If you have to travel a journey that would last for 7 hours, the first step would be to get up from where you are and head to the park or airport. Someone once told me, "a lot of people dream but veryfew do anything about it". And that is absolutely true. It's not enough to dream or have a dream, you have to make move. Someone might ask, 'what is mydream istoo big and it invovles a lot of money?'. Well, first of all there isn't a dream that is too big. Every dream is attainable. As for the money part, start little. Do researches and find out about whatever it is. Go for trainings and sharpen your skills. Because if you don't, you might crash before you even start. It is also important to have mentors who can guide and advice you. That's making a move.
In summary, dare to dream!! It would cost you nothing. And when you dream, make a move and watch your dream become a reality.
