Not everybody wants to be worldly known and to be as inspirational as Julius Nyerere or Nelson Mandela, but in life you have to have ambition to achieve something. No matter how small or minor it may seem, it makes a difference.
Through the world's travels you will find that the greatest people did not do great things. Instead, they did normal things in great ways... As a matter of fact , i have never heard of great acts - i have just heard of small acts with great outcomes- and thats what makes men really great!
Most people are concerned with making mistakes. If it will make u feel any better , even Nyerere and all the other great men screwed up in some occasions. The point im trying to make here is that nobody is perfect and its not your obligation to try to be just because you dream big.
Take the greatest Tanzanian movie legend , the late Steven Kanumba , for instance. He has single handedly mapped the Tanzanian movie industry to third best in Africa. That guy inspires me! However,he also had his equal share of screwing up big time.. It was all over the papers. The scandals, the affairs, the fights.. Nasty stuff.. everybody screws up though, so don't judge and you wont be judged..
The people who succed in life are the ones who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
If you dont aim at anything then i suggest you start from right now. As the saying goes, if you don't stand for something you will fall for anything. it doesnt have to be politics like Mandella or poems like Ngugi wa Thiong'o. it can even be music like Stella Mvugi, soccer like Tshabalala, cool dance moves like Cabo snoop and Fuse ODG, fashion like Flaviana Matata, Magazines like Emelda Mwamanga, media like Reginald Mengi or anything else you can think of, just make sure you don't limit yourself. The people who think that they are crazy enough to change the world are the ones who actually do!
It is not your duty try to change the world but why die without making a difference? Even a small one. To your family, friends , school, community or even your city. I mean, just think of it. Why live if you have nothing to live for, If you cant fight for what you believe and show the world what you think??THINK ABOUT IT
