Ionce read a saying in the Times of Eswatini which changed my mindset about the future. “It is greener on the other side” ...wow! And I was like what’s the author talking about, which greener side? I realised later on that the writer is actually describing the picturesqu­e, amazing scenery, flora of the future.

I smiled as I closed my eyes imagining my breathtaki­ng destinatio­n. I know that one day we all wish to utter that ‘I finally made it to my peaceful home.’ Celebratin­g the victory; the fruits of our labour; the juice of our sweats. It’s all a dream which one day will lead to a destinatio­n; what a blissful feeling that is!

COVID-19

When COVID-19 took it course, it was the beginning of lockdown and a radical shift in the way we were suddenly living our lives. Working from home, remote learning, social distancing were unfamiliar concepts.

Through it all we were all filled with fear of losing ourselves along the journey. Through this pandemic, we shared a tear, smelt success. We must all admit that it was a milestone for us to achieve greater things under this wave hanging upon us but with zest we can acquire whats ours.

EMBARK

When the world is gray and lifeless, the thought of being that someone whom those around you never thought you would be is appealing more than ever. As we all embark on a journey towards the new year, I believe in making our dreams come true. Nothing is much more peaceful than scoring a better future knowing it was your own day and night struggle. As for me ,if someone months back had told me that I would be a psychologi­cal writer by this time, I would’ve laughed and told that person that he’s mad or crazy. I’m saying this because few months ago I was shattered and my self-esteem was depriving to a low background, but that’s a testimony after all. Indeed time and focus changes everything.

HISTORY

It’s an important truth that those who don’t study history are doomed to repeating it. Every action of yours will one day turn to history and only the smart folks will be able to study their history and never repeat it. Some people are stuck in their history, feeling they’re entitled to but less do they know that they’re entitled to moving on but not repeat the same mistakes. Scientists alludes that the world literally is round, but psychologi­sts allude that the world is round by it’s actions because what you have done yesterday will eventually catch up with you tomorrow. So, pay attention to whatever you do in life because history has this tendency of repeating itself. Actually, you shouldn’t be locked up in your past, the theme is ‘tomorrow’

LOSING

In all the trials of securing a better future, don’t lose yourself. True that we are all fighting tooth and nail to fulfill the wishes for our heart,s but some tribulatio­ns can entirely change a person_ I mean hunger for success can make one have a look down attitude towards some people. I believe that not everyone wants to hurt you. Outshining is a gesture we all wish.

I always look up to success because according to the world it everything. Some people leave a relationsh­ip in the case of feeling they’re hindered by their partners to become successful.

SURROUNDIN­G

Whom one associates with is very important as it determines your future. Surround yourself with those minds that are in search of a better fate.

They say great minds think alike so choose people whom are climbing the same ladder and those who are determined. Change your circle if it needs changing.
