THE LAW OF PURSUIT


There is an old saying that good thing comes to those who wait. I’ll like to modify this aphorism, by boldly stating that good things actually comes to those who go out there, and passionately pursue good things. According to the law of pursuit, anything worth having must be actively pursued. The law of pursuit is a law that recognizes passionate hustle. 
 We are living in a highly competitive era. There are too many people wanting the same things you are looking for in life. I once applied for a lucrative job in Massachusetts and the lady at the Human Resources told me that there were about seven hundred applicants for the same job!
In a highly competitive world like ours, only the active dreamers stay ahead. The ones who sits at home, hoping that good things happen to them, will end up disappointed.
A lion understands that it is very competitive in the jungle. He does not sit in his den expecting good things to come to him. He knows that there are too many lions and way too few gazelles available. So the lion goes out and engage in active pursuit.
Even the scriptures teaches us the importance of pursuit. In the book of Mathew chapter 7 verse 7 the Bible says: "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.
If you fold your hands and wait for good things to come to you; you may end up being disappointed. This New Year, you must make up your mind to actively pursue your dreams. Only those who pursue, obtain. God bless you and happy New Year.
