WHEN I WAS DOWN AND OUT
I remember that day when Wesbank repossessed my two cars, I lost my home, was R120 000 overdrawn on my credit cards and one weekend I went to cash crusaders to sell the last of my belongings to feed my kids who visited me that weekend ..
I was so despondent and couldn't understand how I'd fallen from the highs to the low low low's ..
Through it all I stayed positive ..
When I had no food I called it my best diet ever
When I had no car I called it my best walk ever
When I couldn't go out with my friends I called it introspection times
When I didn't get business coming in I called it research on what NOT to do !!!
I NEVER:
- asked for help
- asked for hand outs
- told my friends how life is terrible
- gave up reading
- stopped attending seminars
It was those days that tested me the most .. No excuses just put my head down and pushed through the pain... 4 years of it
Nowadays people say .. Oh Andrew you're so lucky, born with a silver spoon in your mouth, so popular with people .. such an inspirational businessman .. But it wasn't always this way
So STOP MAKING EXCUSES and STOP BELIEVING YOU DESERVE A HAND OUT
earn your space on this planet
NOTHING GREAT COMES FROM LAZINESS ...
