Just Don't Stop...
It's hard to know which effort will bring the most reward
One thing I know is, life just want us to be a diligent steward
Most people quit half way and labeled a coward
Because they gave up and looked back when they should keep forward
There are some efforts we never know but can lead us into greatness moving toward
It's hard to know sometimes which one would pay off but we have to keep trying
As we say in Nigeria, "Na who give up mess up" - "Those who give up mess up"
Not because they are being judged wrongly
But I feel it's a message that comes in so strongly
Embedded with a message to keep pushing on proudly
While recognizing that some times things won't go your way soundly
Life is tough and unexpected situations happen to us, just don't stop
Even though you are betrayed by those you hold so dear, just don't stop
Even if you meet brick wall every time you push, just don't stop
Even when you have been rejected more times than your approval, just don't stop
Have you ever wondered how far we still go at the point we feel was the end?
You never truly know what is possible unless you keep trying...
So, just don't stop... It doesn't mean your frustration is invalidated
It only means your resilience would pay off for you when you just don't stop...
Thank you for your time.
My pen doesn't bleed, it speaks, with speed and ease.
Still me,
My tongue is like the pen of a ready writer.

Thank you so much, Buzzy.
You're welcome @olawalium, it's well deserved! Congrats on your constant involvement on Hive 😊👍
I am more than happy to. Hive is home.
Thank you for this message. There's no point in giving up. No matter the hurdles, we must keep moving.
Giving up won't solve any issue. More so, it makes us still stay at the same spot even worse off. We have to keep pushing no matter what.
My mom always said that if we all knew when our struggles and efforts would be rewarded, everyone would fold their hands and just wait for that day but life is designed the other way around.
We don't know when or what so we just have to keep pushing. Thanks for blessing my soul tonight.
Thank you, my brother. I wish we all know...indeed we would just wait...but even that waiting...whatever we gain won't last because there is no tangible experience to sustain that success to come.
You are right sir, I remembered one of your posts where you emphasized the need to always empower/ add value to ourselves even during waiting hours.
Good one, brother. Yes, waiting period is always where and when characters are shaped.
Very well said. And that's why it is always advisable for us to keep it going. Just keep it going. We never can tell which one will bring the result
We can't tell which one would bring the best reward so we have to keep at it...giving it our all and best.
The story of the guy digging the ground came to mind. He kept digging but nothing...the next person digging close to him found gold and left. He also left the one he was digging only to continue digging the ground the other person found something on. The one he abandoned...he was only close to getting gold too if only he dug a little bit more. The message is clear
I know that story and I have the mental image in my head as we speak. Absolutely spot on.
Life is all about pushing and never quitting as long as we have the ability to do so. Giving up or backing out on the race for success is not an option for me.
It's not an option for me either. I will keep pushing for as long as I can...as long as there is breath because just a single moment can change one's life and make those years of pain worth it.
That's true sir, every seconds can change something significant for us.
That's right. Thank you.
Beautiful thought, usually many people and I include myself we get demotivated when things are not given to us at the first attempt, in those cases you have to correct, see what was done wrong and continue, you can change the plan but not the goal, not giving up should be tattooed in everyone's mind, great poem my friend ☺
It's human to feel demotivated when things don't go our way. We want to cave in and throw in the towel because it's the easiest option. We have to keep giving it our all. Thank you, my friend.
Until the end you have to keep fighting and rowing because only those who are disciplined and constant reach the goal, thanks to you my friend ♥
We have to keep fighting...if we don't stay up and fight...how do we tell our story later? We have to keep pushing ourselves to be better.
Of course, it is important to be an inspiration to everyone around us, to go on and on as we reach the goal ♥
For me, I always say that giving up is not an option. If it can be done, it doesn't matter how long it'll take me. I know that as long as I keep pushing, I'll surely get it.
Thank you for that gentle reminder.
Absolutely...it can be done. Others who have done certain things don't have two heads. It's about giving it the right attitude and effort while consistently staying at it.
Nice message. Telling us that we should never give up on our struggles until we achieve our goals in life. "Na who give up, na him loose guard" according to Nigerians
Make God help us make we no loose guard o. Thank you for that. We have to keep pushing.
This writing is very powerful. I tried to read it twice and found so much meaning in it. Thanks for writing it and for sharing it with us here!
I'm glad you did and that's encouraging. Deeply appreciated and good to have you here.
Na who give up mess up, my bro.
Keep going as it is not yet over until it's over.
After all, luck happens to those who position well to receive it because, it happens when opportunity meets with hardwork, they say.
Nothing good totally comes on a platter of gold.
We go!
It's about strategic positioning too. Opportunity comes but we have to be prepared. We don't prepare for war on the day of war...we prepare for war way ahead of time. Success is inevitable when preparation meets opportunity.
