Are you sitting on your Throne?

Not too long ago, I met a young man whose case had already been written off. "Hopeless," they called him. He was about to leave school, and no one saw a future in him. But someone who knew my work with young people mentioned him to me—passively, almost as an afterthought.

I asked for time with him. I told them, "If I can’t help him see beyond what he’s seeing now, then maybe it is serious." We started the sessions. He missed some, as expected, but he caught up. And when he did, he blew everyone's mind. His parents later reached out to say, "Thank you."

But here’s the real catch: I only got a chance to help him because someone knew what I do. The only reason he listened was because I was already at the top of his mind after finishing a consulting brief with him

I bet on him because I understood his struggle. I was once 18, a smart kid navigating pressure and expectations. But beyond talent and skill, what truly matters is who speaks for you and whether you show up for yourself. its common for people in your circle to be so used to your superpowers; hence, you must continuously sit on your throne and not get missing.

God saw you as capable and bet on you. Bet on yourself 

We all have thrones.

You have a throne—your space, your calling, your unique seat of influence. But if you don’t sit on it, someone else will. Or worse, it will remain empty.

So, here’s my question: Will you sit on your throne or leave it vacant?

When you are called, would you deliver with excellence? Your call.
