KISWAHILI: IGALASHU KUMBE MOSHI WA KWENYE KIKO CHA KUVUTA WAKAKAMAVU.

Chanzo cha msemo huo, chaangalia igalashu. Igalashu hilo ni Kiko kinachotumiwa kuvitia tumbaku. Lakini moshi wake ni mkali kuliko ule wa sigara. Ndiyo maana watu husemwa kwamba, ‘Igalashu kumbe moshi wa kwenye Kiko cha kuvuta wakakamavu.’

Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye ana bidii ya kuzitekeleza vizuri kazi zake, katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, hujiandaa vizuri kwa kuvikusanya vitendea kazi vinavyotakiwa katika utekelezaji wa kazi hiyo husika, kabla ya kuianza kuitekeleza. Yeye hujibidisha kuifanya kazi hiyo mpaka hufaulu kuimaliza, kwa sababu ya kufanya maandalizi mazuri kabla ya kuianza.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na wale wakakamavu, kwa sababu na yeye ni mkamavu katika utekelezaji wa majukumu yake, kwa vile hujibidisha kuzitekeleza kazi zake mpaka anafaulu kuzimalima vizuri.

Maisha yake, huwafundisha wenzake, juu ya kujibidisha kuyatekeleza majukumu yao hayo, mpaka kuyamaliza vizuri, maishani mwao. Ndiyo maana watu humuita kwamba, ‘Igalashu kumbe moshi wa kwenye Kiko cha kuvuta wakakamavu.’

Msemo huo, hufundisha watu juu ya kuwa na bidii ya kufanya maangalizi ya kuvikufanya vitendea kazi vyao, kabla ya kuanza kazi,  na kujibidisha kuzitekeleza mpaka kuzimaliza vizuri, ili waweze kupata mafanikio mengi, maishani mwao.
