Tunde Onakoya Breaks Guinness World Record For Longest Chess Marathon For Children's Education

  On April 17, 2024, amidst the bustling energy of Times Square, New York City, Tunde Onakoya embarked on a remarkable mission—to break the Guinness World Record for the longest chess marathon without losing a single game.

What Are You Passionate About?

   Passion is an intense desire or enthusiasm for something.
   If you are not Passionate in what you do, or you cannot be passionate about your current job, either change your attitude or change your job- Byron Pulsifer.
    Look, before you can plan out your life. What you have to do is first discover your passion- what you really care about- Barack.
Sometime, because of pressure from parents, school, friends or society, we go into doing what we hate and denying ourselves of the opportunity to develop our true passion but the fact is when you are passionate about the things or work you do, you will continue feeling good and happy doing it. Even if it's for a lifetime, you never get tired or angry just because of your desire for it.
Passion give you the motivation to be consistent in whatever you do even if you fail time from time, you never get tired of trying like Ford is one of the example of someone who created something out of nothing. He had little to no education and held nothing but a passion for machinery at a young age which he pursued thought his lifetime. Passion is a desire that keeps burning independent of time or failure. It makes you want to try over and over.
The power of your persistence is dependent of your passion, you never give up and you love doing it.
My questions are:
1. What are you passionate about?
2. Are you doing that you are passionate about?
3. Do you want to live like this day in and day out, without do that which is your passion?
My dear reader do you know when you lack passion in what you do, your life become a monotonous, droning chore that gives you no joy.
The one thing you have control over is your life and the choices you make.
      True passion never die nor end, it continues........
