The success of a fish is always in the water

One thing that needs to be ringing in everyone's heart is that your success story is attached to something, somewhere and some people. That's why I always encourage people to stay wherever God has placed them, irrespective of what or how they are being treated.

I was reading a book when I came across this, it is not as if I don't know before, but it rang differently in my ears.

 

The success of a fish is in the water. As much as we know that a fish can only survive only inside the water but this phrase is saying more than its survivor, even everything it can ever be is still inside the water.

 

The question that popped up on my face was, where is your water?

 

You indeed want to be successful, you want to make it big but that question now is, do you know where you will be successful?

 

Where or what is your water?

 

Water can be many things, it can be your purpose, it can be your audience, it can be your location but I leave you to term this water to anything you want. 

 

Don't forget that just like a fish, the success of every man is in the ‘water.’ 

 

Find your water and start or continue—if you are already inside the water—on your journey to being successful.

 

I will also like to remind you that you look carefully for not all water will make you successful, some will boil you and turn you together with your purpose to a lump of dead meat.

 

Till I write to you again, don't forget you are a Voice and you must be heard.
