Before The Full Moon

Not until this morning when I got the news that a friend was successful in winning the chairmanship position of an elite LCDA in Lagos, I realized my #nunaijstories family had not been fed with this illumination I had three months ago. This post was first shared on my instagram page.

My #phonephotography passion and movement is highly inspired by nature and stories, so I often look out for a perfect scene while working, having my leisure or living my typical daily life.

I woke up around 4am on 23rd April 2017 - diving into the seas of thoughts and reflection, when my attention was drawn to the sky due to a flint of light I sighted on a car across the road. It's the moon but this time, it's a banana shape. Though little, yet the effect in darkness couldn't be neglected.


At this point, my mind started pondering on how important little beginnings are. 'Before the full moon' is the banana yet no one talks about it but the full moon.

The very first step to becoming successful is as important as the success. In fact, it is far more important. Without it, no man can become successful in any sphere of life.

Many great minds have died with awesome ideas just because they didn't dare to take that 'first step'. Blocks after blocks, a house is built. The best economies in the world are as a result of the actions (STEPS) taken by certain individuals either in business, politics, community development and so on.

People like Carnagie, Rockefeller, Dangote, Edison, Innoson and others have the same characteristics - willingness to win by daring to take the first step.

Ask yourself, would you ever know if you are right or wrong if you do not dare to take that step.
