Tech bros and sis dem, how far na?
(this felt way cooler in my head)
How was your week? Were you able to achieve a thing or two?
At this point, I think I've become one of those “perspire to acquire what you require” type of motivational speakers.
But I don't mind. So long as it's giving us all a dose of sanity.🤗
Last week ehn…. Hmmm
Let me give you people the gist 😮💨🤫
So……they were something I've been interested in for a long time now and I've been looking for an opportunity to put in the work. When the opportunity came, I chickened out 😩 making me and the person trying to link me to the opportunity look stupid.
I know, I know 😔
In my defense, it's way out of my field, and I suddenly felt I’ll suck at it🥹
I went back home, now feeling angry and more stupid; deciding to take the chance no matter what, (I have no idea what motivated me) I went back with my tail in between my legs, trying to get the opportunity again. 🙈
To the glory of God, I got the chance. 🎉🥳
I was still scared, but I did it anyway.
I felt stupid at first, but I did it anyway.
My voice was shaking, but I did it anyway.
And funny, I was actually good at it. I got commended by the supervisors and team members.
I didn't die, I didn't make mistakes, I didn't disgrace my ancestors, I wasn't seen as a fool, I was even used as an example for others to learn from 🥰.
In the end, my fears didn't even show face.🤪
That's how I would have missed this opportunity because of fear. 🤦♀️
Sometimes, taking a nervous or uncertain step can be difficult at first; but it leads to growth and multiple doors of new opportunities.
