Are you set? Let's go!
A monarch decided to crown a new ruler over a part of his kingdom and in making the choice, the monarch set a test for the would-be king. The test: he would carry a spoon full of water in his hand from the stream, through the town to the palace where the monarch and chiefs are seated.
The instruction is that if the water drops to the ground, his head will be immediately cut off by the soldier that will accompany him. That is not all. Two categories of people will line the path he is to take; on the right, those that will praise, hail, and encourage him. On the left, those that will abuse, scorn and discourage him.
The candidate started his journey after fetching the water from the stream, taking one step at a time and finally made it to the palace without spilling the water. "Congratulations. You made it!" Which of those two parties helped you? asked the monarch. "None of them. I refused to recognize the presence of either. I refused to be distracted. Instead, I only concentrated on the water inside the spoon, because my life depended on it."
Having focus is a sine qua non to breaking grounds in life, a germane to reaching stardom. Test and trial will always come, but your attitude towards life at that particular point in time will either make or mar you. No one prays for failure, but when it comes, it should spur or ginger you towards success.
Turn your failure to focus because the tide will eventually change for better. Opulence wealth and super stardom are meant for those who want to walk on their high places, break through every obstacles and soar above limitation.
Always be the best you can be in life!
