What does it take to get started?


Have you been in a situation whereby you don't really know what will transpire? If, YES, what was the experience LIKE? Maybe NOT so good but promising, right? It happens in human nature, as we cannot control everything. 

A lot of people are in amusement of getting started BUT terrific statistics point out that the majority are stuck at point A. It's All known given several circumstances in this life. When I was in my first year in 2017 I did not really know what exactly I should be doing in different aspects of life. 


I think you also have been in that state or you are at the moment BUT either way it’s quite OKAY not to know what you want in Life. However, what is not okay is that you are at this moment NOT getting started. Have you asked yourself why you are in that state of disgrace? or are you comfortable with that? I guess NOT at all. So how can you get started or/and what does it take to get started? I hope you will read to the end to amuse your soul with my little experience on how I got started some few years ago.






Most of the time lots of people are carried away when trying to get started which in most instances leads to Burnt out even before the first three or six months.




This happens to the majority be it in startups or any other partaking. So here are some tips to make you unstoppable

1.  Make a to-do list of the things that are on your mind and schedule a time 

Mostly, the majority don’t care about having a calendar to make a follow-up on what’s to do next or how to do it. Or sometimes, people tend to have it but choose to ignore it BUT I can assure you having a To do List calendared is the sweetest thing ever. If you don’t have one now then later. In my instance, I use a software application called Monday.com which I find is easy and organized. Check it out.

     2.Find Your focus and know your passion in life 

Focusing on something you love is the most brilliant thing you should keep in mind. This happens if you know the purpose of that particular passion you are undertaking.

In my instance, I find environment/climate Actions and Youth integration in entrepreneurship more fascinating.


2.  Make yourself available to the right connections or/and opportunities

Are you alive or dead? I believe you are breathing well and good. If that being the case you should embrace the right connections or networks as it paves a way for your NEXT big Item on the table, that is if you play your card well. When I came to study Sudan at first I hated the environment to the core. I guess every Jim and Jack does the same. 

Basically, based on the weather, it's hell hot in Sudan with the range of 27 to 48 Degree Celsius and more in some states. But with time I wouldn’t mind about the weather as I took it as a chance hence find it as a passion. With that I participated in several events/conferences/workshops in different aspects including climate change as a core.


3.    Starting asking right questions and finding the practical solutions

I think most of the time we tend to ask the right questions but with wrong timing. Have you been in such a scenario? It’s easy to do that if you don’t do your research well or you don’t literally know what it takes to find practical solutions which are more impactful to the communities. First, know what your problem is and try to figure it out. In this era of internet revolution, everything is at the tip of the internet. We talk of Google, YouTube, LinkedIn and many other platforms


They might be few but with proper follow-up can be motorized and hack your life for prosperity. It doesn’t matter where you are now, what counts it’s the breaking through the hard core of the life hack. It takes time but I believe with the above pinpointed points you can take some steps.

One thing which is clear is that this road of getting started will make you lose some weight;

I mean you will lose some good friends for nothing. By the way have you at one point lost some people on both ways; thus as you being a parasite or them being the parasite? How did you manage that through? It's scary right?

I hope NOT at all as it serves you better for the life hack. Some people aren’t meant to nose in whatever you do!!! It’s hard to swallow but with time you get it very well.


Hope you have enjoyed reading!!!!!!!!

My Marathon To Being A Youth Activist    Many people fail to understand why it’s a great deal to serve the world in different perspectives. The way we visualize things, that's what we are creating for the next 10 years, if not 20 good years, but the many of us, particularly the youth whom we are in the majority, miss it a billion times to envision our own impactful ideas. It's okay under normal circumstances for several claimed reasons. Did I say claimed ones, YES of course!!! Anyway, I personally believe with so many hopes that there is always a way to that, one way or another. The moment we the youths stop blaming small barriers instead looking at a bigger mirror for proper view map, by that definitely there will be more pathfinders in the youth arenas, be like cleaver builders whom they start with concreted foundations and not the roofs or/and the top by that it will help to prepare you the way to your next ladder steps, yes it’s hard to focus on one or two things but fir...

Starting a business is becoming much less effort than a few years back where the environment was so demanding and not that conducive as it is today. These days’ people use technologies to operationalize their ideas. I think that’s a good stand for startups companies. Yes, the majority of people are trying to start their own businesses at the moment, which gives the ground a lot of competition but that shouldn’t make you start your own.

SAVE YOUR ENERGY I doubt if we place ourselves in a category as life saving bulbs to our beautiful planet earth unless you tell me you are from planet mars. Most people seem to have only 1 or 2 options if at all NO any tangible options at hand out of all those trillion numbers. Are we being serious?  I think not, how come out of all those numbers no single number makes sense to you as an option, not even Alphabet letters, how cruel restricting our super minds to miss our charged thinking! Isn’t it pathetic?  Let’s gear up to save our energies to the light options with practical approaches. We all have been in a situation where second and first options seem mind draining with no direction to correct or/and make things right. But one thing for sure is that there is always a way if you wish, the thing is to draw your end line and imagine you are digging your own grave of which you will also bury yourself alive fresh, can you continue digging? I doubt there is no way to keep digg...
