Understanding Your Season by Boluwatife


Let me go spiritual here. The Holy book (Bible) tells us in Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 specifically about season. Every season has its own advantage, each is to prepare you. Season here is not talking about an extended period of time or time as we know it. Season here means maturity, growth that makes you fit for a purpose.
Season can be in form of transformation. When you think about season, you imagine a transition; a process of change. There is usually a change in course, purpose, agenda and focus in season. This shows that season, here, is not static -"change", they say "is the most constant thing". You have to place yourself on a fast-forward mode here. You have to try to move from one place to another place claiming your territory wherever you find yourself. Don't ever think that transition is automatic.
The key to transition is preparation. You can't get desirable results without adequate preparation. Always give room for preparation. It goes a long way in achieving goals for your season. To every season, there is a new devil laying wait for you. Hence, before venturing into your season, you must understand what you are going into. You need to understand, through waiting. Also, your waiting must be with an understanding. Get to understand why you are waiting, very crucial -it's like the reason for your existence even.
Nonetheless, transformation is very strange to some people. They can't just move out of fear of how to integrate forgetting humans are mould to by default be able to adapt to changes no matter what. Meanwhile, the fearful ones are kind of people who have successfully of impeded themselves already. Well, I in a way agree that these set of people are already accustomed to their previous or current way of life being comfortable on a spot for they find it difficult and challenging to do something else or different. This due to fear of failing, to adjust and wherewithal to survive are what scare them most of the time.
There are dangers to this comfort zone. Comfort zone means to be satisfied and comfortable in a particular place without thinking of moving out and time and opportunities pass you by.
Comfort zone deters. You don't make progress when you are too relaxed. You must overcome it through comparison and self challenge. That's the only way you could come out of your comfort zone.
Therefore, you must locate your season and grow when necessary. Seasons are special event. They are orchestrated by nature to make you advance. Discover yourself, God factor and activities are what you need to grow.

(This is not my idea. I heard it on radio and I translated it in my own words)

  1. Yes, Seasons must meet preparedness for ultimate yield. No preparation, no yield. Yield will then be dependent on depth and extent of preparation. Truly, we must be able to identify seasons and get ourselves equipped to be able to meet up to the demands of such seasons so as to reap fulfillment. Wonderful article, I must say
