We can provide so many dictionary meanings to the word “consciousness” and all the meanings would indicate being alert and knowledge of what is going on around/with you. For the purpose of this work, this is would be the short definition we would be using for our topic. Being alert and having knowledge of what is going on around or with you defines your consciousness and the level of your consciousness would determine how deliberate you are or would be about your actions and the things you do. Life did not just happen, life was a conscious and deliberate effort of our creator, things does not just happen, people put in conscious and deliberate effort into making things happen. We live in a time where we leave mostly everything to chance. Let us take the life of an average person growing up for example, you are taught to work hard, focus and be disciplined in whatever you do, you’re taught to listen to teachers in school, elders in the community, pastors/imam in the religious homes and always keep good company, you go to school to study a course which often time is influenced not by what you know or think is the best for you but by what your parents think or how they influence you, then follow a path from there, from what the teachers says to what the employers says by the time you’re out of the schools and often time, millions of people follow these routine because it has been embedded in the society they grew up in and not because they sit to come to a conclusion or make a deliberate and a conscious analysis of what they need, how things evolve with them and how everything else around them will work for them, they just do the thing they have/need to do in order to get by and fit in the circle that has been created for them. The only way to be something real, something you would identify as yourself or yours is by being deliberate about the things you do, without this all everyone is left with is are the particles sprinkled from everywhere by everyone into your life.
Your life is not yours until you have the required level of that awareness that gives you the consciousness required to be deliberate about every action you take each day. We live in a time where people put much more of themselves into being deliberate and conscious of all the wrong things around us while they give little or nothing into being calculative about the things that will give their life the purpose that they were created for, parties, girls, enjoyment and much more are the things people dedicate more time to be conscious about as against the real things that will make their life better. For a life that wants to be driven by purpose, you must take out the effort to be conscious and deliberate about the important things in your life. People follow other most times not because they choose to be followers as against pursuing and fulfilling their own purpose in life but because they’ve not taken their time to consciously and deliberately choose anything at all, so they fall along with everything.
The real actions come with the conscious and deliberate effort and not relying on luck, you make your own luck by sticking out to what you want and deliberately pursuing such, leaving life to chance is not what winners do and that is why in this work, effort is being dedicated to make us understand the useful of us being conscious and deliberate about life. Points are going to be discussed below on the importance and the advantage the being conscious about life affords us.
