Live from Goodison Park


The odds is certainly against us,That we know.But coming up against the champions is something we just can’t avoid.Although we have had a really rough time lately,We certainly would give this challenge our best shot.

Belief, Belief, Belief……..Believing in our potentials and abilities is something we just must do.Irrespective of the slow start we might have had till this time,It’s the change we create through our determination that surely counts.It’s that time we need to trust our vision not the eyes.

So the set time came and at a point we found ourselves 2 goals down,Suddenly the bookmakers’ prediction was becoming real.However we never lost focus for a second,Then opportunity presents itself to us at the last minute…..Without hesitating, we buried the chances and broke the back of the very talented squad.That’s what is called greatness!Full Time Scores: its Everton 3, Man United 3.



So many times we go through dull periods, periods when our confidence trends on the downside. At this time, we doubt ourselves and see ourselves as the inferior. Hmmnnnn, then at our struggling and crawling state, we rediscover form and launch with the very last strength……..”Gboa”!!!!!! Explodes the dream and suddenly the breakthrough comes.


There is a drop of greatness in everyman as it is often said, but unfortunately we cover the embedded greatness in the pot of fears, doubts, unbelief and worries. Then we further denature our opportunities in the fire of distractions via the negativity hype that surrounds us and in turn near elasticity limit where we are weighed down by the intimidating situations that wraps itself around us, hence we find it difficult to return to result oriented shape. This happens because our vision lens refuses to get the goal’s focal point.


Ladies and gentlemen, the power of focus is too strong to be neglected, It reminds me of how small David closed one eye, opened the other to aim correctly at the target without subscribing to the “I can’t do” syndrome that had enveloped the city, straight goes the stone tucked on the giants head and the bush boy suddenly became an instant hero. So mighty is the power of focus which often brings the fruits of labour sooner than we anticipate. So why drown with others in the ocean of impossibilities? Remember greatness begs for its release through that opportunity.


We live in a world filled with diverse kinds of opportunities, but we stand on a shaky platform that signals how impossible it is to attain success. However with the swing of determination, focus and belief dangling in our hands, the mighty challenges would crack like a dropped egg.


Shhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!There is just one thing we need to take cognizance of…………..Simple, “it is not over until it is over”. Your opportunity might just come at the tail end. Friend take it and you become an instant celebrity; the success story on everyone’s lips. Of course there is only one person capable of limiting you in this match, it’s definitely no one but YOU.


Just like the “Evertonians” fought back against the mighty Reds, we have got no excuse than to prove a point…that our best isn’t best described by what the present showcases and that a drop of greatness truly lies in us. So now that we know this, we must make conscious effort to push it out through pursuance of our dreams, goals and targets.


I welcome you to a world of opportunity for making real achievements, a place where our success story is inevitable. Because we have grabbed tightly the keys of “focus, belief and determination”, then our winning is surely guaranteed.

Waiting to see you celebrate.
