Using the analogy of soup preparation, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of interoperable platform Korba, Nelson Korshi Da Seglah, has explained one can achieve success by making the best out of all situations.
Just like every ingredient used for soup may not taste as good when consumed alone, the Korba CEO posits life’s ups and downs, successes and good times accumulate into an individual’s success.
In an interview with Y107.9FM’s Rev Erskine, host of the ‘Myd Morning Radio’ shows on the Yeaderboard Series, he said, “Life is just like a well prepared and delicious soup. The tastiness of the soup is not just because of the tomatoes. Taking these ingredients individually will not taste as good but mixing them up gives us the taste we enjoy. Being successful is how you mix your soup. It can be bitter or sweet depending on how you mix it and that is the definition of success.”
Urging the youth to chase their dreams without fear, he shared an Ewe saying his dad used to tell him, “a broken bicycle is better than walking.”
To him, the youth can achieve success so far as they are able to identify what they want to do, prepare for it by understanding what it means to get it done and then finally working to achieve that dream.
