You no need make dem choose you

You get one idea wey you dey almost start reach. E survive di cold season. E survive plenty resonable argument wey dey talk say person wey sabi pass you suppose handle am, and e still dey here dis morning, wey pass wetin most ideas fit do. Di room bright. Nothing dey physically stop you. E good make you sidon small tink am before di day full up.

One pen wey you no use for a while. Dust dey turn for one line of light near di shelf. Di low electrical sound wey building dey make when almost nobody wake. Notebook dey wey get three pages wey you don write, di rest still dey wait, and na dat notebook be di most honest thing for di room.

You don dey wait make person choose you. One commission, one invitation, one title, any outside sign wey go tell you say you get permission. Dat waiting fit chop your whole ten years, and di reason why na because di sign wey you dey wait for na for people wey don already start. Nobody go give stranger permission to create something. Dem go give am to whoever don already dey visibly create am, meaning say di certificate wey you want dey come after di action wey you dey hold back until you get di certificate. You don dey stand for di wrong side of your own process.

Check wetin di waiting dey really do for you, because e dey do something. As long as di thing never start, nobody fit judge am, and one project wey never start get perfect record. E no be laziness and e no go fair to call am dat. Na protection wey wear di cloth of standard, and e dey work fine reach di time wey you go notice say perfect record of nothing na wetin e dey produce. Di people wey you dey admire dia work no get better permission pass you. Dem get earlier draft, and most of dat draft bad well well, and none of dat matter for di end.

So today, start am, and no tell anybody. No post, no message, no mention to any supportive person. If you tell people, you go taste small di reward without di work, and dat taste, better make you use am for di real thing instead. Fifteen minutes for di real object, for private, na di whole assignment.

Nobody dey come give you permission for dis one. E fit sound like bad news for like four seconds, but afta dat e go turn to di best news wey dey available, because e mean say di gate wey you dey wait for never lock. Push am. E dey open from your side.
