 HE IS A CULTURAL DANCER.

He needed N70,000 for the treatment of his sick child.

He decided to have a stage dance to raise the funds.

He designed a flyer and started sharing it around his neighbourhood during the day and reharsing his dance routine in the night.

His expectations were very high.

Then the day came. The stage was set and it was time.

To his dissapointment, it was ONLY a small teenage boy that showed up for the event.

But he told himself, "I wont chicken out, I must dance and give my best." 

Then he started dancing. He made sure he gave his best as rehearsed to the admiration of the boy. After the show, the boy left and the man went home sorrowful.

Purpose defeated. Status quo remain the same.

He was devastated and depressed... But something surprising happened the following morning.

The only boy that showed up for the show was the son of a senator. He had always wanted to be a dancer and his father had approved it.

The boy had been charged with the responsibility to get a personal trainer and coach.

Unknown to the dancer, he was auditioning for a job.

The senator called the dancer and gave him a contract of N200,000 monthly salary to train his son with N100,000 upfront payment.

Wow!

Sometimes, it looks like you are wasting your life when only few people show up for your event/program, engaged your post or buy your stuff.

No, you are not. Always give it your best shot. See those few people as millions in your mind. Don't be discouraged from either doing it again or giving it your best. You might actually be auditioning for the big stage.

You don't audition with the crowd but with few people that will give you the big stage.

Keep giving it your best.

People will call you names and laugh at you. But keep showing up better.

YOU ARE AN INCH CLOSER TO THE BIG STAGE.
