SOME OPEN DOORS ARE DEAD ENDS
I know you must be wondering how we got to this conclusion but follow this thought closely
Josh is a talented artist!!!whose artwork blew minds
Every single stroke on his board meant something.His artwork carried so much meaning and emotions and hallelujah he had so much faith in his talent and and so much fauth in the media!!!i mean anyone can get attention from the media!!!!
On a sunny day,josh’ phone began to ring endlessly
Josh gets on the phone amd behold it is “liam moreno”a top artist!!well known for his work and reach throughout the globe!!!liam moreno happens to be a straight forward man and he said”i’ve seen your works,you’ve got alot of talent and i want to help you,come work with me so you can learn the industry business”
Josh who was gasping for air out of excitement gave no thought to the conditions ghat would follow!!i mean who wouldnt want to be associated with the almighty liam moreno????
Josh began painting in liam’s art industry and for every single exhibition...josh’s art works were all over the place with no credits!no recognition...no allowances!!!neither did he have time time for his old mother!!!weeks,months,years passed!!!josh had invested so much into another man’s entreprise that he had nothing left for himself!!!
He was behind!!!doing the work!!!liam moreno was at the forefront making all the money and taking all the credits!!!
It had been two years of sleeping in the workshop many nights to meet up deadlines ,having turned down other opportunities that would have developed his brand!!liam moreno would often say!!!i am foing you a great favor by alowing you to work with me!!!
and on this day!!!josh lost his old mother!!!on a cool evening!!!apparently she couldnt get the help she need at the time she needed it!!
If you were josh what would you do?
What will be on your mind???
I’m wondering what the answer would be though☺️☺️☺️
A new artist came to their small town!!!and in no time liam moreno went hunting again and caught another desperate and naive artist and before a clock ticked 12..josh was relieved of his duties with nothing to fall back to but regrets
All his artworks stolen
2years working tirelessly for someone else
2years of not investing into his own dream
Let us conclude the thought by saying!!
1.Was liam moreno a skilled and influencial man..one who could have appeared as a mentor for josh???
Yes he was
2.could josh have risen up to be a great artist if he kept doing what he was doing before he gained liam moreno’s attention?
Yes he could have..a very great chance
3.why did this happen!!!
99.9 percent of the time,the people moving towards you are coming because they see the light you carry
And the devil will disguise himself as a blessing because i mean who would want to gravitate towards bad with their eyes open!!
Temptations will come looking like the original plan!!
Like the open doors you so desire
But take heed lest you fall a victim
And end up investing your time and resources into another man’s selfish vision at the detriment of yours!!
Keep building yourself
Investing in your skill
Until you are fully what you should be!!!’
Let no man deceive you thinking they are doing you a favor!!!
You are also giving value to them so see it as give and take!!!!
Not every open door is an open door indeed!!
SOME ARE TRAPS LEADING TO A DEAD END
May we not end up like josh in the hands of Liam

@ntul, investing in yourself is one if the key things that keeps every successful people going,and for you to keep going and remain at the top investing in yourself is the only option,but to add to what you said about Josh,the major mistake he made was to forget about himself that means he cared less about himself,Moreno took advantage of him because he saw he's desperate to get to the top.
That will bring to the point I will say knowing your value is key,adding value is another key.
Using this key's is wisdom
Thank you for this great insight you just revealed to me especially it really triggered my consciousness...
Yessssssss
The secret is To never stop getting better
We keep investing in ourselves
And may we not be taken advantage of because of our ignorance
The statement that no mam should deceive you making you think they're doing you a favour is a big one. It's one of the deceptions on the many who are eager to see themselves rise in life. I mean, it's not bad to want to be there in life, but we should have the decorum, descernment and sometimes the dignity to know the right approach.
Indeed, not all doors lead us, some are dead ends. Thank you for sharing this. It's insightful.
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts on this with us
Indeed not all open doors are doors
Some are dead ends
May God help me descern the right things to venture into
You're welcome.
That's really true. I hope we find that discernment.
Truly, some open doors are dead ends.
Oh yes they are
Reason why we must be careful and make informed decisions
