The struggles of life didn't start today. Right from the time of conception and ovum fertilization, we have constantly been facing one problems or the other just to get what we desire.

Sometimes the hardship and struggles of life can make a grown man wish to be a kid again, but then, when you think of it, that ship has sailed and it's never going to return.
The waves of life is more dangerous than the waves we see in the north sea. The strong gain balance and ride the tides, while the ship of the weak keep capsizing until they gain enough experience, emotional and mental strength to ride the tides and have fun while at it.
Sometimes, it feels like we are not doing enough even though we have accomplished quite a lot of things. The more we hodl, the more we understand that we have nothing, which makes us want to hodl more. How much do we need, in other to say we are successful? Is life just about being in the rich list? Or is there more to it?
The rollercoaster of life is one bitter-sour-sweet experience that we can't actually stop or exit until we are 6ft below ground. The big question is; where do we go from there?
Irrespective of all these ups and downs, I will be moron to surrender when I know that I'm a contender. I strive, I fight, I try, I cry if I must, but I will never give up.
What's crazy is that, eve when you're passing through the roughest phase of life, there are people who are jealous of you, people who see you as a positive or negative rival, and also, people who talk shit about you behind your back just to tarnish your image.
I take daily doses of motivation just to keep going and to keep being focused. My goals? The world we live in today revolves around money - what do you have? How much money you make? However, I have come to the end of myself to realize that my goals are way bigger than just being a financially free man.
Sometimes, even as focused and determined as I can be, I still feel the strong tides of life hitting the tough skin of this warrior. Though at times I feel like giving up, but when I remember my motto, "this too shall pass," I remember that I'm a contender and it will be stupid to give up.

Are you happy? You feel the world revolves around you? You feel like you have everything and you're the latest talk in town? Welp, this too shall pass.
Again, are you sad? Feeling very depressed? You feel like you're stagnated with no hopes? You feel like you want to give up on your dreams and end things for the better? Welp, this too shall pass.
I got this motto from a video I saw on social media. This motto has helped me in many ways. No matter the hellish encounter or the most heavenly encounter I have in life, the thought of "this too shall pass" helps me to not only remain focused no matter the situation, but to also keep grinding even if I'm winning.
