Just stand, keep standing

Just stand, keep standing no matter how tough it is. Just stand, keep standing irrespective of how hard it may be. A youth once said on my secondary school social media group that he wished he could die and leave the planet earth.


After much debate and reactions on the group, I found out that the young man was facing a hard time. At that point in time, he felt weak and felt like not standing again. That was what happened to him. And such can happen to any other person on the planet.

It is a challenge but those who summon the courage to stand and keep standing will win it at the end. They will make it in the long run. All you need is God, smartness, faith, courage and self-motivation.


Quitting that job you are into when you have no alternative as a youth will not do you anything good. It will end up putting you in the state of regret when you have no other secured job somewhere for you. Put in more effort. Let the divinity see you and do not bother how he will multiply your resources.

Always stay positive. That is a very important factor needed for gradual growth. Keep on seeing brighter light ahead and back it up with hard work. Even when others are lazying around in the office, enter the street and search for results. You will get them if not that day but some other time.

As a youth, you are filled with strength. That strength in you is needed to keep you standing. Use the strength you have in you positively. Never allow the poor result of yesterday to stop you from moving ahead.

When you are down, try and stand. When you feel you are getting tired, call on the Almighty. He can give other spiritual nutrients. Keep on standing my fellow youths. Utilize the strength you have in you.


As a hard working young lady or man, there will be a time when you will rest. What you need is to utilize the strength you have with time because there will be a time when you may not have the strength and time to cover what you have been covering. There is time for everything and once you do not utilize the time well, you will find it difficult to recover.

Building a lasting platform now is very important. When you build such platform at this point in time, the royalties will keep coming even when you are no longer existing on the planet earth. If it demands you do not sleep in the night because you want to get certain things done, just do it. The joyful thing about completing a particular task within a period of time is that it usually keeps you in a good state.

You will have your seat when some good standards are set by you. At that point, you will not struggle before you get some important things done in your life. Do not see your current state of standing right now as any form of punishment.

Take for example that you are a farmer that specialize in raising of birds and then supply to consumers that need them when they are grown. At the initial days when you might have started the farming business, there may be other things demanding your attention. One of them may be money to furnish your room.

You may be in need of some cash to buy big mattress and furniture to 'upgrade' your room. But because if you do so some of your birds will die of malnutrition, you have no choice than to use the money you have to keep them alive through feeding.

At those times when the farmer was investing his money into the farm, he was standing. He kept standing until he established balance. That is the sample of the life of someone that wants to achieve greatness.

It will get to a point when he will have abundance because he endured when he was standing. At that point, he will buy anything he wanted to buy. He then seats and enjoy his life. It is possible he has many other branches somewhere that may even be more than farming. So dear youths, keep standing. A time of rest will come. Do what you have to do and do them well.

The same applies to the life of a good author. At that time of writing, it may not be any easy work. But when he has much books that solve particular areas of interest, it can earn for the author for a very long time.

Of the truth, publishing of books that answer questions to certain areas of interest can earn for the author even when he or she is no longer living. If the books are registered under a marketing company that help in their distribution, the author can earn much more in the long run.
