Treat every single thing you do, every single work you find, every single relationship you build, and every single choice you make like a seed that will produce a bountiful harvest for you.

After all is said and done, it's all you. Everything you do, everything you say, every choice you make, and every action you take, you will be completely and solely responsible for. Nobody is coming to save you. You will bear the consequences of your actions and your decisions. This is the gospel.
The concept that someone will come and absolve you of the results and fruits of your daily choices is deceitful, and has caused so many people to destroy their lives, hoping that regardless of what they do, their dreams will come to pass, and they'd live the kind of life that has been 'set out for them'. What a pity.
It sounds forlorn, but it is true. Nobody is coming to save you. Your life is a resultant of the choices you constantly and consistently make.
If you consistently make unhealthy choices with your actions, with your relationships, with your diet, your career, your body, and with every other thing that concerns you, you will invariably live an unhealthy life. You cannot sow cherry and expect to reap popcorn. It is injustice.
Your life is a resultant of the choices you constantly and consistently make.
The systems of this universe have been designed to bring justice to everyone and everything, regardless of what or who you believe. The earth will make sure you reap what you have sown, and as a result, everything you see in your life today are fruits of seeds you have sown in the past.
This is how you can easily guess how your life will look like in 5, 10, 15 years, by the actions you're taking and choices you are making today. You will reap the fruits of the seeds you sow, and you will reap it abundantly. You might not reap it where you sow it, you might not reap it when you expect to reap it, but the system that controls the world will make sure that justice is served.
This is a simple hack to living a victorious, excellent life. Knowing that nobody is responsible, nobody will bear the consequences of your actions on your behalf. Nobody is coming to wake you up, and even if someone does, nobody will force you to make certain choices.
If you consistently sleep in instead of waking up early to get ahead of the day, it's a no brainer that these days will pull in scores on you and defeat you. Steady defeats daily will result in a defeated year, and then a defeated life.
Constantly saying things, doing things and making choices that aren't a reflection of where you want to go and who you want to become is simply foolish, I mean, how can you want to become a medical doctor, and you're going to Law school? Ko make sense nau.
If your life right now is a result of the choices you have made in the past, then isn't it a no brainer that your life in the future will be a result of the choices you make now? What choices are you consistently making now? What actions are you taking? What seeds are you sowing? Are they in line with the person you see yourself becoming?
Again, at the end of the day, it is all you. You. You. You. You will bear the consequences or rewards of the actions you take and decisions you make. It is only right, and the universe always had a way of ensuring things are right.
This isn't even any religious jargon or rule. It is simply what it is. You get what you give, and you get it abundantly. Treat every single thing you do, every single work you find, every single relationship you build, and every single choice you make like a seed that will produce a bountiful harvest for you.
You get what you give, and you get it abundantly.
Having this in mind will help you know the kinds of advices you take and the kinds of people you take advices from.
Knowing this will help you see that it is fruitless comparing yourself to someone else and competing with other people, because everything you do in between those lines will affect only you and what you love. People who you've been competing with or comparing yourself with wouldn't even be bothered or affected one bit.
In the final analysis, reader, the same way nobody will enjoy the rewards of your good deeds for you, nobody will bear the consequences of your actions for you. Nobody will come and save you from the choices you make. What you put in is what you will get out, in multiple folds.
Look around your life, recognize that the life you have right now is a fruit of the seed you have sown in the past, resolve how you want your life to look like in the next few years, and start sowing seeds towards that life.
Nobody is coming to save you from the choices you make.
Whether you end up living an average life or an excellent one, it'll be all your fault.
To your growth,
