Let me tell you something most successful people don’t want to share with you
The person you are supporting right now, the day they get that power, they will forget you like you never have existed.
You were there standing with them, connecting them with business contracts & investors, pushing their voice, arguing on their behalf, clapping for them, sharing their story, trusting them in all your heart and mind.
But when they secure that power, they will change their phone number & living environment, accessibility becomes controlled, your circles with them become smaller. And suddenly, you are no longer “important” to them.
It is not because you did something wrong, it is because that is just how the game of power is set up; this is like a universal law.
So don’t get it twisted. Support people, yes.
Believe in them, yes. But never build your identity around someone else’s success. Because when things shift, you must still have your own ground to stand on.
Learn the following earlier before being dragged into disappointment:
1. Know your value, take credit in every support you give them whether in form of money, ideas, or anything valuable.
2. Know your direction, don’t put all your feet at once
3. Do not reduce yourself to being just a supporter, have plans too
4. Be a person with your own voice, don’t be misled
5. Practice your own principles.
6. Familiarize yourself with your own path, exit at your own will.
You will be loyal for years to a person or an institution and still remain unconsidered, while others just switch sides and start enjoying immediately.
This is the reality. So support who you want to, but don't be blind to know how this game works. If you are not strategic, you will just be helping others succeed while you stay in the same place.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. Ezekiel Garang Arol
Marijuana smokers in New York light up joints for the 420 cannabis celebration held annually on April 20. ‘It's like New Year's basically, but for everyone that smokes,’ says NY resident Jackie Win. Adult use of cannabis is legal in the state of New York.
