…. hey, jack of all trade come closer.
Can you come a little closer?
Can you pay a special attention for the next 2 minutes?
I have something to tell you my fellow jack of all trade buddy.
There are some of us that can’t just stop dreaming of so many things simultaneously.
You have so many big goals you want to achieve.
Today, you want to tackle SDG 1.
Tomorrow, it is SDG 4.
Next week, it is SDG 13.
Then another time, it is SDG 17.
As you keep envisioning, you can’t seem to let go of one for one. Everything just seem so attached to you.
They all resonate so well with you that you want to create an impact.
Everyone keep telling you to focus on one so that you can be excellent.
They keep telling you how confused you are because you just can’t settle your mind on one thing.
You keep changing or bringing up new visions when you are not a chameleon.
You then begin to wonder, “am I really confused? Is it possible I don’t know what I am doing?”
Funny enough, you are not even excelling at anyone of them.
This now makes you come to an agreement with them that you have no clear direction then you drop everything.
One beautiful thing about we humans is our diversity. Some have the capability to only have one dream while some have the capability to have more than one dream.
For those who always tend to have multiple dreams are usually tempted to want to focus on multiple SDG goals at the same time and it’s normal because that is the way you are wired.
You’ve tried it but are unable to settle on just one goal.
You begin to wonder how the successful ones are able to do multiple things effortlessly.
Let’s take it STEP BY STEP;
🔅 Have Priorities: Nobody has anything figured out. They just have their priorities well set. It’s important you know clearly what you want and what is the most important to you in this season. That way you are not clouded and overwhelmed with the multiple goals that you have.
🔅Create an umbrella: When you look closely at your social impact goals, there would definitely be a way to infuse them into one another. For instance you are passionate about education, children and climate change. You know, you can decide to empower children with education on climate change and train them on how to reduce the global warming in the society.
Just make one of the goals like a heading then make the rest sub-headings. This way, you have just one goal but expressing yourself through the other goals. Trust me, you are not confused, you know what you are doing! You are just so blessed to keep it to yourself.
🔅 One goal at a time: Train yourself to make your target each time be singular. Don’t try to achieve everything together. They would become clustered especially when you’ve not mastered the art of excellent management. Take it one by one. You can decide to do it monthly, quarterly or anyhow you prefer it. Just go at your pace and ensure you don’t dance to the noises that thinks you can’t do it.
Above all of these above mentioned, believe in yourself. You are so capable to accomplish all of it. It is a strength rather than a weakness that you have so many things you want to do.
Solving social issues in this present time requires people like you who are able to see solutions for more than one issue.
Creating social impact should not reduce you in anyway instead allow you use your uniqueness for humanity.
So many times, I’ve wished I’m like those who have just one talent or who just have one thing they want to do because I considered myself as a confused fellow since that’s the way others perceived me.
But, I decided to embrace this as a strength, gift, uniqueness, a great ability!
I consider it a privilege to have many things at heart that I want to do and I seek knowledge in helping me do everything well without even doing everything.
Don’t cage yourself.
Don’t limit yourself to the society standard of the way things have been.
Don’t be scared to be you especially when it’s for the good of the society.
