Honestly, your words really penetrated my heart. You said, "fighting for whatever you want became natural," that is a great mindset and asset to possess as a human being. You are right about the mindset of majority of the people; reluctant to pursue their goals, a little failure or obstacle on the way is enough for them to give up. You are a great man, Steve and I love your Courage π

Impressive write up Sir. Your words have totally changed my thoughts about success in life positively. I've learned that if you want to succeed in life, you must work for it. Nothing good comes easy.

As a little child, my mother would always tell me, "Ti na o batan laso, eje ki tan lekana" (As long as you have breath, you must keep on fighting).
She used this proverb to encourage me whenever I fall sick (because I was born with Sickle Cell Disease).
Day after day, year after year, my mother would repeat the same proverb, "As long as you have breath, you must keep fighting.
Luckily for me when I became 17, I started to have better health and my mother never needed to tell me the above proverb again.
But this time around, I would continue telling myself.
Having suffered excruciating pains all my childhood, immediately I became healthy, I decided to do something with my life or DIE trying.
At 20, the way I looked at life was completely different from the way almost anyone else I knew saw life.
For me, fighting hard for whatever I want is natural so when I made the decision to defeat poverty, it wasn't a passive battle.
I always remember the proverb of my mother; As long as you have breath, you must keep on fighting
Today as I write these words, I'm sad.
I'm sad because I had a conversation in recent days with a friend who wants success but doesn't want to fight hard for it
Why are people this way?
Why do so many people think life should be easy for them?
Why do people expect success to come to them without any failures?
Why are most people in this generation not willing to make sacrifices for what they want?
