“If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.” – Henry David Thoreau.
Many people have a lot of missed calls in their lives simply because of the noise around them. This noise has drowned and deafened their voice of reason that is meant to guide and lead them to their destiny. Yes, it seems that the opposite of courage in our world today is not cowardice anymore but conformity. To be truly yourself in this world that is so well set up to make you conform is the greatest accomplishment.
To be able to step to the beat of a different drummer as opposed to that heard by the masses takes a lot of faith and trust in yourself. You have to know that you are different, unique and special and that you were created to be a solution to a particular problem in this world. The reason I, Veli Ndaba, was born was to remind you of your purpose and to help you reconnect with the highest that’s within you. When you were conceived, a seed of greatness was planted in you and yours is to protect it, water it, cultivate it, fertilise it and remove unwanted weeds around it until the harvest time. To achieve this, you need to stay inspired. When you are truly inspired, the word ‘impossible’ becomes ‘I’m possible’.
Successful people don’t become that way overnight. What most people see at a glance – happiness, wealth, a great career, purpose – is the result of belief and faith, dedication, persistence and of course, adaptability. These people develop a miracle mindset. So, they believe in themselves and their dreams and become expectant.
