Struggles and delays are not friends with anyone, yet we attract them unintentionally, and eventually get trapped in their bondage most of the time. Do you know you are designed to accomplish certain things (tasks) faster, because you naturally have the ability to handle them, but could experience otherwise doing something else? You were created for a specific intention and your design will always give you an edge over setbacks and challenges especially when you are careful enough to deploy it rightly.

It is true that many of us were created with a lot of abilities, but something to keep in mind is that no one on earth has it all, and when it comes to the areas you lack abilities to manage, struggles and delays could set in if you try to force yourself on them. You have a unique advantage in life, I mean your gifts, talents, and natural abilities, and will soar above struggles and delays if you focus on taking on tasks that rightly engage them

Everything we require (in form of abilities) to overcome setbacks lie within us and has always been in us but will function only to our advantage when we use them in the right context.

In the following points, I will mention a few things that will stir you up on the need to urgently focus your competitive advantage on earth!

  1. Everybody on earth was created specially and sent with gifts and talents to solve specific problems and answer certain questions in their generation. The main problem, however, is that a lot of people waste so much time trying to figure out what they naturally lack abilities to handle! They enjoy striving in routes contrary to their destination and forcing their gifts and talents on tasks that do not require them. You have an edge over every other person on earth, and that edge is simply wrapped up in who you are (your natural abilities), discover it and live it to your advantage in this competitive world!
  2. You were designed to serve a specific intention in your generation but the moment you decide to be something else or careless about your identity, you face struggles, challenges and after wasting so much time, achieve little or nothing in the end. If your job is to serve as the hand, that is where your competitive edge lies, do not try to become an eye just because you are faced with a nice-looking slot or life changing opportunity.  
  3. In some cases, you must refuse to settle for multiple failed attempts, doing one thing when you can be successful doing something else, I mean the right thing for you. Many dropouts in our generation are doing extraordinarily today because they found their abilities and leveraged on them. Assuming they remained in school, hoping that someday things will get better, most great inventions and moves that we celebrate and enjoy today would never exist. There is something you can do to become relevant on earth, there is path where your light will outshine struggles and delays, find it, and begin to walk in it.
  4. Doing the right thing introduces speed into your life. Many delays and struggles that people face today can be attributed to their inability to find what is right for them, a task that rightly deploys their abilities. The only way to be above is to use what is unique to you where it is most valuable or appropriate.

The next time you have an opportunity to take on a task, find out if you have a matching ability to handle it, or you are merely carried away by what you expect to gain from it.

Life is not as difficult as it seems, neither is success, impact, or wealth; finding what you are best at or created to do, and doing it puts you in charge over them. 

You can overcome struggles and delays, soaring to greater heights constantly when you focus on finding YOURSELF, and taking giant steps daily towards LIVING YOUR OWN LIFE!
