*THE SUSPENSE OF THE FUTURE: DECODE IT*
✍️
Nothing triggers curiosity more than a movie that ends at a point actions are expected and then refers you to buy the season two of it in order to satisfy your curiosity. From the ongoing, we do anything possible to make sure we buy the season two in order to come out of our suspense here. Almost all is allergic to suspense. Nobody feels better to hear that the information that should be given to him is now withheld, pending on doing one thing or the other. Thus, everything possible is done to know that which suspense holds.
✍️
Thus, suspense helps us to listen more, do more and think more. And it makes life more adventurous. The realization that if we buy the season two of a movie, we will have access to the knowledge the season one held from us, makes us to maintain the condition, knowing full well that our thirst for knowledge shall be satisfied in the end.
✍️
Our lives are more like a movie, and our future holds many great things for us. We should be curious to know them just like we're in buying the Season two of the movie. We should be doing things with the consciousness that we want to know that which the future holds for us.
✍️
Joseph in the Bible was aware that his future holds more great things for him. Although he did not see them, yet he persisted in following the lay down principles of discipline and hardwork in buying the season two of his life's movies- to know what the future holds for him.

Know this, you have not seen your true *you* yet. Yeah! You have not really arrived as you think you are. *You are a bundle of suspense. You are still in the season one of your life.* You need to slot in the season two of your life's movies. Aren’t you tired of being known as a riff-raff? Aren’t you tired of presenting the same result every other year? Aren’t you tired of complaining? Stop it,okay? Those you are complaining to do not have the solution you are looking for. You have to decode the information your future has for you.
✍️
Many things are not known of you yet. This is why you need to improve daily.
In movies, you do not repeat in season two what you have shown in the season one, new actions are seen, otherwise it becomes valueless. Thus, it does not make sense if you still show the same achievement you made last year come next year. If there is nothing new you add to your life each day, each year, your future will not decode its suspense to you.
✍️
When Napoleon Hill stated that anything the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve, it means that we cannot conceive anything if we are not in the conception track. *Pregnancy must be before delivery. We cannot have what does not have the input of our efforts.*
✍️
Know this, nothing worthwhile comes accidentally. We have to desire to see the season two of our lives, before the future we want comes to us. It is the scripture that says "Draw closer to God and God will draw closer to you". In paraphrasing this I say: *draw closer to your future and your future will draw closer to you. *The lesser chases the greater. Your future is greater than you of today, chase it first for you are the lesser.*
✍️
There is much our future holds in suspense for us. Do you desire to know this? Are you determined to pay the price for seeing the season two of your life? And this is the hard truth: those who succeed in decoding the information future has for them have more interesting stories to tell, yes they command audience everywhere they go. They personify authority. The opposite is true also. *The suspense of the future: a treasure every meaningful life must work to decode.*
