I want to express my gratitude to David for giving me the opportunity to share with you. It is an honor and a privilege to be writing on this blog. So sit tight and let’s get this post rolling.

Just imagine that after you were born to this world, 20 years later you still look the way you are. You haven’t grown at all and you still have the same mindset, same belief system and the same statue. Wow! How would you feel?

It is obvious that growth is very much important. No one ever wants to be on the same level. Even nature wants us to keep moving forward.

However, there is something that keeps people from growing and it is very subtle that people don’t know that it is harmful. This problem is when we wait for the right time or moment before one achieves his dreams.

Maybe you have a great idea that you know will be able to solve people’s problems or you have a dream that will that touch people’s life on earth but you are waiting for the right time or the resources to achieve your dream, I am telling you that you are never going to take the step. This lesson I learned the hard way.

My passion for writing goes right from my early years. It gives me pleasure express my thought and opinions. So when the opportunity of blogging came to my attention, rather than start immediately and begin the process to achieve my dreams, I developed mental excuses or what people will call “Analysis Paralysis”.

I began researching on blogging. I would read several articles, listen to audios and watch videos and It did not take long before I had the knowledge of blogging but the strange thing is that I never began to blog.

I would always dream that I would have a blog that will be an authority in the blogosphere and would pray that God should give me an idea on the theme which he did but I still did not write. I was waiting for the right time and a magical moment.

About a year later, I still had not started a blog and that is when it dawned on me that I was wasting time. So I took the plunge and stared my Blog (www.awazieikechi.com).

I have been able to make a difference with my Blog (www.awazieikechi.com) and I was recently nominated for the Nigerian Blog awards. All this would never have happened if I did not take the first step.

So don’t wait for the right time or moment, start right now to achieve your dreams.
