YOU'RE NOT FAILING, YOU’RE JUST IN THE WRONG MOVIE
Few years ago, I was featured in a Christian content by a wonderful group who were and still are doing great things for the Kingdom.
Now, if you know me well, you already know that acting is NOT my ministry. 😂
I have like 10% passion for acting, but somehow I said, “Let me just give it a try.”
And guess what role they gave me?
A CRIMINAL. 😭😂
The first battle started with the costume.
They brought an armless top for me.
I said:
“NO O! Why will I expose my hand for the camera? Abeg, find long sleeve for me.” 😂😂
I was looking at the other actors happily wearing their costumes, while I was negotiating my own with the costume department
Then came the actual acting.… it was warfare. 😭
They gave me my script. It's either I dint add passion to it so it flows naturally or I forgot it the lines. Some how we finished the shooting and it was nice shaa. 😉
At that point, I knew this acting thing wasn't my calling.
But I learned something from that experience:
You will naturally struggle with things you have little or no passion for.
And I'm not saying everything you do must be easy because you're passionate about it. No.
Passion doesn't eliminate discipline.
But there is a difference between something being difficult because you're learning and something constantly draining you because it simply isn't your lane.
Young people, stop trying to become EVERYTHING.
Calm down!
You don't have to be good at everything.
There are things you will admire in others that God NEVER designed you for
And that's okay.
The goal isn't to become a jack of all trades with 17 abandoned projects.
Discover your passion. Discover your strengths. DISCOVER WHERE YOUR GRACE IS. THEN INVEST HEAVILY THERE.
Because when you find your lane, you'll still work Hard but the work will feel meaningful.
Don't spend your entire life forcing yourself to wear a costume that was never designed for you.
Some of us are not failing.
We're just acting in the wrong movie. 😂🔥
