Adedimeji Lateef: It Is Mistake To Think Time Is Going

Nollywood actor, Adedimeji Lateef is of the opinion that it is wrong to believe time is going when it’s actually human beings that waste themselves.

In a post on his Instagram page, where he advised his 2.3 million fans to do the right thing, Lateef said time does not grow old and remains until the world ends.

Laying emphasis on how individuals compare themselves with others, the young actor advised them to focus on their gifts and talents.

Read his post below

“It is a mistake to think time is going. Time is not going. Time is here until the world ends. It is you that is going. You don’t waste time. Time is infinite. You waste yourself. You are finite. It is you that grow old, time doesn’t. So make better use of it. And one of the worst things to do with time is comparing yourself to others.

“A cow eats grass and gets fat but if dog eats grass, it will die. Never compare yourself with others. Run your race. What works for one person may not work for you. Focus on the gifts and talents God gave you and don’t be envious of the blessings He gave others.

“If a rose smells better than tomatoes, It doesn't mean the rose can make a better stew. Don't try to compare yourself to others. You also have your own strength, look for it and build on it. All animals that exist, were in Noah's ark. A snail is one of those animals.

“If God could wait long enough for snails to enter Noah's ark; His door of grace won't close on you till you reach your expected end, only rely on him. Never look down on yourself, keep looking up. Remember that Broken crayons still color. Keep on pushing, you never can tell how close you are to your goal.”
