You and your talentA Chapter by UDENTA IFEANYICHUKWU GOODLUCK MALACHIWe can only acknowledge the essence of our existence if only we can discover the various innate potentials and our God-giving talents.
We are practically doing nothing about our future
when we fail to do something about our character thereby acting towards our individual various posterity. It is pertinent to say that our talents when failed to nurture them will go into oblivion. Potential as many will proclaim that they have lots of it and many will say that some are wasting their own yet they know little about what potential is. Little did they know that discovering one's talent and innate potential allows such individual to change his or her fate, redefine his or her destiny in the process of developing his or her potential. knowing our talents contributes immensely in the changing of our life by assisting us in understanding what we can excel at and who can become, knowing this helps us to overcome our fate make our dreams come true. It is pertinent to state the underlying details of personal potential, this describes a. The activities that we can perform and excel effectively b. The possibilities in our individual life endeavour c. The actual and real person that we can become d . The possible reputation that we can create for our individual life The word potential originates from the root-word potency and refers to all the things we can be successful at if we develop and use our talents properly. Some have the seed of invention in them, some good in songs while some are orators. But it is quite sad that many have the potential of not knowing their God-giving talents and innate potential. However, we have all the potential and talents needed to create and manage our world. It baffles me to see great youths not only wasting their God-giving talents but consuming their future doing nothing worth . Many have succor paralysing their future with their hand s and mouth doing and saying things that reduce them instead. Many have exchanges theirs with the in place of mere temporary enjoyment. Sadly to say that more youths are on their way to same destruction, not that they feel good being such lane rather they lack all that is needed to squarely face the real challenges that life stalled for every being that would enjoy life and know the essence of living and appreciating such life. This work is prepared to the redemption and liberation of the youth from the shackle of ignorant and self limitation but effectively managing their God-giving talents and potential s. However, another great problem of the youths towards effective management of their youthful potential is not only running away from their responsibilities rather they focus much on their weaknesses such that they don't only constitute problem but turn out to become their own barrier. The youthful stage of every individual is a beautiful moment in ever life of an individual because it is at this stage that all the innate potential manifest. It is a beautiful moment in life when it is expected that every youth will maximize their talents. Many have misused the great moment in lifetime. Many have neglected and refused to acknowledge this precious once for all moment in lifetime. This as result triggers almost all the vices in our environment ranging from rape, criminal acts, idleness and many likes. Many went on to blame their parents for not providing them with enough money but the raw truth remains that your parents are not a barometer to your success but what you do and do the right way. Howbeit, if every youth will uphold the fact that every step at the youthful stage leads such individual to his or her success or serve as a lane to failure, pain or pleasant, Joy or sorrow. Am not neglecting the parental role but emphasizing on the individual role. Many do not believe in themselves, greater do not even know whom they are. The worst of it all. They brain have become so narrow that they do not believe that they can effect any change in their environment. Not knowing that the youthful stage is short and narrow. Therefore, it is so pertinent to say anything a youth can not do at this stage and do it appropriately will never be corrected only for such individual to wait for his or her reward ahead. " WE DECIDE TODAY AND TOMORROW OUR DECISION DECIDES US" UDENTA IFEANYICHUKWU. When one fail to plan ahead of time during the youthful stage such an individual should not expect to reap anything at the old age, except reaping from another person that have laboured in his or her youthful stage. It is the youthful stage that determines the old age. For every youth that strive towards managing his potential such must answer the questions a. What have i done or what am i doing with my present youthful moment? b. what changes am i affecting? c. What are my impacts in my environment? In the words of. Robert Kennett " The world demands the qualities of youths not a time of life but a state if mind, a temper of the will, a quality of imagination, a predominance of courage over timidity of the appetites for adventure over the life of ease" d. The reason of being in my present position? In conclusion, a youth can only manage his or her potentials when such person is able to object negative influences from a negative person, say no to negative idea from any source. Then manage and access everything by looking for the positive. © 2015 UDENTA IFEANYICHUKWU GOODLUCK MALACHIAuthor's Note
