TIME AND TIMING

TIME AND TIMING
Time is a special gift from God, given equally to every human being that ever lived, are living, and will live. 24 hours to everybody, and the good thing is that it is within our control.

Timing is opportunity that shows up in the space of time. This definitely is not within our control. It just shows up.

So many people complain of not having what they want, and they give excuses of not having opportunity, maybe wealth and influence too. The truth is: the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happens to them all- the swift, strong, weak, poor,....

Imagine a scenario: Mr. A understands that there are only 24 hours in a day, and therefore spends quality hours learning about stock which he knew nothing about. In the next six months, he has already known every useful thing on stock and can even render useful advice. He then shows up in a conference where stock was argued, and he gives useful advice for free. His advice worked, and he was sought. The next time he's going into the room as an adviser won't be for free; he would be paid consultancy.
What happened in the scenario? Mr. A used his time well, and when the opportunity showed up, he was prepared. Time and chance (opportunity)!

Timing is opportunity that shows up, and can only be taken depending on how well your time has been used. You have no reason not getting to where you want to be. Adjust the way you spend your time, and make something good out of it, that when the opportunity shows up, you will be good to go.

Building Capacity

The teen and youth ages are transitory periods. The adulthood is dependent on them and the childhood look forward to them. Major changes occur that shapes one during this period. Decisions and choices during this period are key too. The parable of the talents illustrates a scenario of three servants- their ages not told. They were given talents which can be likened to an investment. The spotlight is on the fact that they were given according to their "ability" and not "piety." A mentor once said they were given to capacity. If piety were a consideration, the servant who ended up with one talent should have had the most: he was pious; he feared his master the most  and wouldn't want to offend him in any way; but he hadn't capacity worth investing more than one talent. The above is an evidence that proves the fact that nobody is willing to invest much in anybody without capacity, enough to contain. The amount of content is dependent on the capacity of ...
