The Victorious Life

By Brilliance Sibuyi

WHAT DOES VICTORY MEAN?

‘Victory is when you spend your time right.’
‘Victory is when you stop defeating failure and start treating success’
‘Victory is when you outdo your society`s expectations.’
‘Victory is when you stop growing straight and start living great’
‘Victory is when you stop acting rich and start getting wealthy’
‘Victory is when your internal fantasy now becomes your external democracy’

“I feel blessed to have overcome my fears and the society`s doubtful expressions of contempt towards my success. For I now have become a dazzling lamp in the marvelling darkness, for I have reclaimed my mother’s pride and dignity which was stolen from her by the death of my father.”

VICTORY!!!!!!!!!

Dedications

I fully dedicate this book to my fellow global citizens – from the least to the eldest. More especially to all the disadvantaged, poor, vulnerable and hopeless youth who have or still are undergoing similar situations to those I have gone through. It is as a motivation in my saying that, regardless of where you are coming from, you can make it in life; never lose focus and hope. This book can be read by anyone, for it is ageless and timeless. By all the people from various positions; politicians, businessmen/women, pastors, students, doctors, employed and unemployed, educated and uneducated. Be sure to preach the message to all your loved ones. I verily believe you will enjoy and learn from it.

Introduction

No one was ever created to live depressed, stressed, condemned, unworthy, guilty or to live in poverty forever. The truth is we were all created to live victoriously. A victorious life is only for those who are risk takers, challengers, fighters and who end up being winners. Risk takers are the icons of success. Challengers are not always the winners, but they are always extolled for their bravery. In reality, credit should be given not to a winner but to a challenger, because if there is no challenger we would not have a winner either. True fighters do not fight battles which are favourable and obvious to them (the winning of them), but they fight the ones where there is not even a single shred of hope. They give themselves that hope instead. It is this hope that gives them the courage to press on and continue fighting until the end. True fighters win their battles in the mind. True fighters never fight for renovation of the already dilapidated, but instead they fight for building the new. In this world, fast runners do not always win the race, the wise do not always earn a living, intelligent people do not always get rich, and capable people do not always rise to high positions. Life is fair enough with its own difficulties. It is like a bird that is suddenly caught up in a trap, like a fish caught up in a net; we are trapped by some temptations that we least expected. The unexpected temptations that we happen to be trapped in are only to be conquered by a victorious mind.

Life is an amazing aspect which we all fight to sustain and maintain. What I have learned is that people value life more than anything they can ever own. This is because of the life that makes life be called life. All scandals happening all over the world are due to the need for life sustenance. All living beings wish and strive to live a better life, which I call a

Written by a young focused black, previously disadvantaged who doesn't allow situation to define him. Well done.
