Your Next 200 Meters

When a man conceives an idea, he is motivated to start working on it immediately it is conceived. When the set time to begin working on the idea arrives, it becomes difficult for the man to set the sail and get the idea going.

Fear of what will befall him if he dares take a step, begins to creep into his mind. He will begin to ask himself doubtful questions of how he is going to cope while pursuing the idea, if he has the capacity to bring the idea into reality. So many questions that will cripple him will be asked.

Instead of focusing on possibilities, he will begin to see the obstacles all because he cannot see where the idea will lead him to. he cannot fathom what the final result will be, so he decides to abandon the idea and remain where he is. He builds a comfort zone around him and he will always find it difficult to act on any idea that crosses his heart.

Such a man always end in frustration just because he has refused to act on a noble cause due to fear of what will happen next. Fear has robbed him of what is to be his reward for following his dream all because he couldn’t see where he is heading to.

if you are ever in this position, I want to let you know that you don’t have to see the whole journey before you begin. Even if you are not sure of where that idea or dream will lead you to or through, take a step of faith. Every dream always lead to an happy ending.

Never allow fear to rob you of your future glory. Just as Jack Canfield put it, you don’t have to see the whole journey, if you can just see the next 200 meters of the journey, begin. When you get there, you will see the next 200 meters and it goes on like that till you achieve your dream. It is when you begin that you will see the next step to take, if you don’t, you won’t see it.

Let nothing stop you from pursuing that idea, it could be your key to greatness in life. Remove all the obstacles and you will eventually get to achieve your dream.
