Views === Mine

[Oreoluwa Bukola, CFA. @BukkyOA]

Compared to my peers, I have never achieved anything in my life and career at record time.

Never.

I am the queen of trailing behind.

I would fail exams multiple times.
Fail aptitude tests
Fail at interviews
Fail at getting promoted
I stayed in roles and grades for longer than I should have.

For me, life seems to drag.

It is a pattern, and that is the story of my life.

I would try really hard, but I would fail.

I would debrief on why I couldn’t hit key milestones and see some valid reasons; sometimes, they wouldn’t make sense.

This bothered me every time I introspect, but then it stopped bothering me.

At least not so much anymore.

The reason is that I am pretty resilient.

My journey is complex, thorny, uncertain and quite complicated, but I seem to stay the course.

I realised that I do not get demotivated, no matter the number of ‘No’s I get.

It just fuels me instead.

I think that’s a superpower (what do you think?).

And I show up again and again and again because I want it badly.

So, whatever I have achieved so far in my life is not because I am good at it from the first time; it is mainly that I have become so resilient that I stay on the hill until I get it.

This is my story.

I have begged before I got
I have scraped before I ate
I have stayed knocking before the door opened for me.

There was hardly any magic or any leverage.

My leverage is my resilience, and I use it to my advantage.

That’s how I win.

Maybe that's how you win, too. I'm not sure, but you know better.

Go and be fantastic today.
