Incredible India monthly contest of November #1 | Clarity!
A special thank you to our host @meraindiathis topic clarity is a calling to focus, and determination, it's a strength to those that are weakling, a reason to those that want to give up and a special greeting to the general community and my follow steemian.
1. How do you glance towards the word clarity? Explain!
Clarity can sound so easy and simple in the mouth, but in truth, it determines how far you will go in life and what you will eventually achieve. To me, clarity is more than just having a clear view of something, it is a full vision that touches your emotions, spirit, mind, and goals. It’s like a guiding point that helps you stay focused when everything around you looks confusing.
According to Robin Sharma, “Clarity precedes success.” This means before anyone can truly succeed in any aspect of life, they must first understand what they want, why they want it, and how to get it. Brené Brown also described clarity as “kindness”, explaining that when we are clear with ourselves and others, we create peace and direction rather than confusion.
Clarity, to me, means understanding myself and my purpose before taking any step. It is knowing why I’m doing something, what I hope to achieve, and how I plan to go about it.
Every organization has its company objectives and goals; every market woman has a target and a certain amount she hopes to achieve from the goods she purchased for sale. That’s clarity. It is the clear awareness of what you want and how to get it.
When someone begins a journey just because others are doing it, confusion and failure are never far away. For example, as a student, if you choose to study Medicine and Surgery just because your friend chose it without considering your interests, strengths, or financial ability, you might struggle, fail, or even drop out. But when you act with clarity, your decisions are rooted in self-awareness, not comparison.
Even a hunter has to set his gun and position himself properly before he shoots, so that he can aim correctly and get the bushmeat. In life, clarity plays the same role, it helps us aim at our goals with accuracy. Without clarity, you’re just shooting into the air and wasting your strength.
2. Do you assert that clarity in any context grants us the precise vision required to achieve our life's mission? Please provide a rationale for your perspective.
Yes, absolutely. Clarity gives direction and helps us channel our energy into what truly matters.
Clarity made me discover what I wanted at a young age. At just 13, I already knew I wanted change to rise above the limits that surrounded me. In my family, everyone stopped at primary or secondary school. No one thought education beyond that was necessary.
When I got to SS1, I asked myself, “Is this a curse or a cycle?” That question changed everything. I made a clear decision that I would not stop like others. After secondary school, things became hard, I couldn’t even afford JAMB. Many said I was wasting my time. But I had clarity, and that gave me determination.
I started working, hawking, and saving for four years. And today, I’m in the university, studying Psychology. That clarity made me rewrite my family’s story. It gave me strength to face challenges and a reason to keep moving even when things got tough.
Clarity helps me focus on what I want and not just follow the crowd. It gives me a precise vision of my life’s mission to graduate fully learned, equipped, and ready for whatever life brings to my table.
3. How does determination depend on clarity? Define!
Determination cannot stand without clarity. When you know why you’re doing something, it fuels your how. Because I’m clear about my purpose, I study differently. I don’t just want grades like every other student; I want to graduate equipped, learned, and ready for life. Clarity helps me plan my days, my finances, my academics, and my growth. It keeps me consistent and helps me say “no” to distractions.
Every step we take is determined by clarity. If your clarity is weak, your determination is likely weak too. That’s why determination depends strongly on clarity, it is the starting point of all focused effort and success.
Clarity makes me know what I want at an early age. When I was 13, I already knew I wanted to go higher, I wanted change, and I gradually started putting actions in place to achieve my goals.
In my family, everyone stopped at secondary school. When I was in SS1, I questioned this norm and realized I had to pursue further education to make a positive impact in society. After secondary school, life became tight. I struggled financially and had to work for four years to save money for school. My family doubted me, but my clarity kept me focused. Now, I am in school, fully committed to my studies and determined to graduate differently not just with grades, but with knowledge, skills, and readiness for life.
Clarity helps me focus more, plan my life, and organize everything academically, financially, and personally. It determines what I am going to achieve.
Clarity is the key that unlocks determination, direction, and destiny. It helped me break limitations and create a new path for myself. It gives peace, focus, and purpose to life.
When you are clear about what you want, you don’t follow the crowd, you follow your calling. Like a hunter who positions his gun carefully before he shoots, or a businesswoman who sets her daily target, clarity helps us aim straight at our goals and achieve them with confidence.
