The reality of an Entrepreneur.

You'll never make anything good and sustainable in one day. You'll start in unbelief. You'll be disrespected. You'll go broke for weeks, though most likely, months. You'll eat foods that will normally disgust you. You'll sleep in very uncomfortable places. You may not experience this much but you'll surely come across some.

Suddenly, you'll discover that you are beginning to know quite much, and then due to consistency, hard work, prayer, and other legits that work for you, unexpected invitations, calls, account alerts, e.t.c. just begin to stroll in in crescendo.

Through your phase of growth, when there was nothing to hold on to expect your vision and integrity, certain investments that you've made like some key friendships that you never undermined, the trust you never betrayed, the responsibilities that you took seriously, the woman, man or child you helped some way, the slap or punch or insult that you never returned all begin to pay back.

You'll suddenly discover that the Man you gave some money for his child's school fee some months back is a driver to the Company Manager that you've been dying to meet, and he just sets up an appointment for you.

Your car got faulty on your way to that crucial interview to get a life transforming endorsement. There are no cabs around to pick you up as you are almost getting late. No one in the world seems to be responding to your plight and unrest. Suddenly, the man that you never returned his slap is fast coming towards you on a bike. He immediately recognizes you. He's in full conviction that you are never a trouble maker. He sees your desperation to get on transit and then he picks you up and delivers you exactly at the venue of the endorsement, right on time.

Many are the travails of an entrepreneur. She's pregnant with a vision. She carries it for months. She tends, cares and sings to it. She walks gently, mostly staying away from familiar things - familiar foods, familiar friends, familiar many things.

However, it's never bad all day for the entrepreneur. In difficulty, she celebrates her intact vision.
She'll never abort this one. She's aborted so many before. Maybe if she had birthed the early ones, there'd be, at least, a child rendering a helping hand at this period of travail. She's learnt her lesson. "I'll surely deliver this one", that's her new dog head attitude. She's never missing a counseling session with her qualified doctors. She's duly following their prescriptions, and she calls their attention immediately she notices an unfamiliar experience.

She's fond of taking gifts, no matter how small, to her doctors; her unique way of appreciating their efforts. In return they thank her and give her adequate attention and patience.

Few months to go and she'll be delivered of a bouncing baby. No matter what she's gone through, everyone quickly forgets to celebrate the birthing of her baby. They'll all take turns to carry the baby.

Many are the travails of an entrepreneur, but in the end it seems like she's always lived with the Queen.
