'BE YOU TIFUL' BY MARTHA OLUSOLA.

I know how worrisome it can be to know that you can't wear your crown properly, without having some people trying to bump it off your head. 

However, I've come to realise that only losers attempt such an act; those who have fallen short of some privileges and are embittered seeing others standing and enjoying the same privileges they've been deprived of. They then turn out to be the set of people that are called ''Ajègbodò tó ń wẹ́ ni kún ra" and they aren't difficult to identify. Instead of paying attention to fixing their loosened bolts, they always focus on the winners and the crowns fixed on their heads, finding faults in them to bring the crowns down and get them relegated to the level they are. You'll agree with me that this set of people aren't in any way different from the devil himself, who, having realised he had lost his position, glory and benefits, seeks to prevent as many as possible from enjoying the same. 

On the other hand, when you see winners, they pay more attention to themselves than any other person, what faults they may claim they've found in them and their crowns. They shun the market noise and the "noisers", shaking off the negative comments from the trolls as they climb each rung of success because they've learnt to always ensure their beauty radiates and never dwindles in the sight of opposition. They long not after people's opinions or attention to chase their dreams. All that matters to them is being fulfilled. 

Therefore, you may always wake up to the echoes of criticisms from faultfinders now and then, I'm sending you this post to say, "Don't be moved by destructive criticisms, instead, learn to remain 'YOU tiful' inside out. 

Use every negative comment as gas for your car, put your head up, your gaze fixed on your goal, and keep moving. 

Remember you're BEAUTIFUL and the best time to showcase your beauty is when you've learnt to BE YOU. Mind you, you'll not only become so 'BE YOU TIFUL' the moment you learn to BE YOU but also BE FULL and FULFILLED.
