TURNING PAIN INTO PURPOSE

They say "No gain without pain", but I often ask myself; must I endure pain in order to make a gain? How true could this be? These and so many more questions kept hitting me. Living the life of an Upcoming entrepreneur can be tiring and somehow depressing. This minute you are fine and doing alright, the next minute you are grappling to save your venture. Well, my Major problem as an upcoming entrepreneur has always been the issue of Lack of adequate Electricity supply. And as such like every other business in this part of the world, we make use of Generators for our daily businesses.

For the past months and few weeks now, my major headache and my major expenses come from maintenance.
Today nonetheless is no exceptions. I spent my day and lots of funds trying to fix everything in order so as to have a better experience of business transaction without electricity interference.

In what I may describe as one of the bad business days, huge capital was channelled into maintenance of these tools. Annoyingly, it's the same parts and items that were bought by another mechanic not upto 2 months ago, which turned out to be of no good use, it's the same items that were bought today. Whilst observing what the mechanic was doing,

I took a flash at how it all started and how bad I want it to end all but the other guy in me keeps saying No.
As a young entrepreneur, I've always dreamt of having a Long arm that reaches out to the less fortunate in the NIGERIAN community and abroad. And the only way to do so is to get oneself established. Here I am! Yet the desire of quitting sometimes comes in but instead of dwelling on the pain, I hold Unto a strong belief that the tomorrow would be better. This has been my driving force and inspiration. Instead of quitting, I chose to fight. To fight for a better tomorrow through Hardwork and use of wisdom. It's been a Long day of pain and regret and laughter

One thing that I Know is that, what has a begining, usually has an end. It's left for us to determine what type of end that fits us best. Do you wish to suffer now and enjoy later or enjoy now and suffer later,!! I chose to suffer now and enjoy the fruits of good labor later. Turning pain into positive gain may be hard, but a wise man of blessed memory once told me; pain only shapes us into something better if we truly avail ourselves to it's teachings and it's righteous steps. Yes I believe! What about you?
