Empowered for life

Empowered for life

Power is good, it gives you the ability to get things done, you are able to command things at will, everything respond to your call. You will agree that the best thing to happen to a man is to have power.

Money can make a man powerful, influence can make a man powerful, knowledge through education can make a man powerful and much more God can make a man more powerful than all the above.

But on the other hand the lost of power is a very tough thing to handle, the feeling of emptiness and loneliness, the feeling of incapacitation and rejection, inability to command the things you usually command. Desperation to want to get it back but too late. You may not know how it feels until you have experienced it. But may you never experience it.

What is more dangerous is to have power and not know.  Ignorance is a killer, it kills faster than terminal disease. Many do not know the potency of the power of the tongue. It is so potent such that it can give life and it can also take life, it can create and it can destroy. It can build and it can pull down. It only took God to speak the word to create the world.

God has laced your tongue with the power to create and recreate your world. If you don't like your reality, engage your tongue in the recreation process. You have been empowered to make things happen. He spoke to Jeremiah " I have touched your tongue with a coal of fire". You are the Jeremiah that God is talking about. There may be so many things you don't like in your life. It's time to change it with the power of your tongue. YOU WILL SUCCEED!

BE INSPIRED

MTN came to Nigeria at a time
when nobody wanted to invest in
Nigeria, at a time when Nigerians
did not have phones. Even Zenith
Bank refused to loan MTN cash
to operate, UBA rejected MTN’s
offer but today see the
difference.

At least we all know the story of
the only civilian unelected
President in Nigeria - Goodluck
Jonathan. We know how the
people said he was not going to
be President; they even made him
acting president... Today the rest is
history.

Trump was booed, laughed and jeered at when he was contesting for presidency, a lot of people said he won't even make it through Republican primaries because in their minds he doesn't have what it takes to be president, we'll they were wrong cos today he is The POTUS.

What about Cowbell? When they
came to Nigeria, they made milk
in a sachet, Peak was laughing at
them - they said Cowbell was milk
for the poor - but they were
right! 3-million poor people could
afford N10 a day for a sachet of
milk. Oya, do the math - 3million
people buying milk at N10.00-
that was N30million every single
day. In a month they grossed
N900million (almost N1billion).
Even Peak had to make sachet
milk in order to survive in the
market.

So what have people told you?
What have they said you cannot
do, or you do not qualify for,or
you do not have experience for?
They told Cowbell, they told
Goodluck, they told Trump, they told MTN, but today the story has changed.

I have a feeling something is
changing for you today! They will
change their strategies just to
keep in step with you. Don’t listen
to what people are saying or
what life is showing you… YES,
YOU CAN. Success is not about
where you graduated from, or
what grade you graduated with,
but what graduates out of you.
Keep the spirit UP..you are the problem solver and the solution provider people have been looking for. This 2017...get up and win.

► BE INSPIRED People. Good Morning Y'll, av a fruitful day and week ahead.

Time is life

Time is life

Time is a convertible resources, Time is an asset, time is what you make of it. The distance between you and your dreams is time, the first thing you need to make your dreams come through is time, not money.

A man is not through when he still has time. What you do with your time determine the outcome of your life. Time comes first and every other things is secondary.

Time is life and life is time,  it is the space between birth and death. You were born empty, that is not your making because you have no imput in your birth. How you will die whether full or empty will be determined by you. The beauty of life is to die empty, by making effective use of all your gifts talents and potential.

It is a waste of life to get to the grave yard and regret because of what you ought to do but didn't do.

Niyi Adesanya (a renown life coach and CEO of Fiftgear Consulting) said:  "If you don't take the time to create the life you want, you will spend a lot of time dealing with the life you don't want.

Enough of time wasting on things that add no value to you and others. Hold your time dearly because it is your life. YOU WILL SUCCEED

Appreciation comes before financial reward.

Appreciation comes before financial reward.

Do what you love and love what you do, do not mind the opposition or the critic. Envy should be a propellant and not a stalker. People are naturally envious when you do things they are not capable of doing.

They were envious of Jesus, they where envious of moses, they were equally envious of Elisha. A circular song writer sang "if nobody talks about you, then you are nobody"

Gossip is the proof that you are making impact and making progress. So what should you do when people get jealous of you? Your best course of action is to improve the velocity of the speed at which you where doing it, in other words, its time to do more. You will succeed!

...raise your voice!

Someone said "silence is golden " but I say not in every context. No one knows what is in the mind of a man unless he speaks out. Even mind readers are only guessing they don't have 100% assurance of what lies in the heart of any man.

Your voice is your worth, sometimes, people place value on you base on what you say. A notable adage says "The wise speaks because they have something to say but fools speaks because they have to say something".

Words have weight, words have power, your word is your worth and your worth is reveal by your word. When you say nothing people hear nothing but if you say something people hear something.

Ability to speak convincingly is an hall mark of a leader. Everyone who desire to be a leader must cultivate the habit of speaking.

Don't work this path unnoticed, lend your voice to vital issues and make it count. Speak out and be counted.

You are born to make impact, don't die as a non entity. Give expression to your thoughts, let out the leadership ability in you, amplify your voice and make it heard. Blow your trumpet and give direction to many, don't let fear cripple your latent ability.

You are born to make things happen, its time you make it happen. YOU WILL SUCCEED!

Don't be critical!

Don't be critical!

In everything you do, ensure that being critical is not one of them. Critical people make simple things become complex and complex things becomes difficult. Everything in life is a state of mind, what you see is what you get, if you see good in every situation you will enjoy the best of life. Sam Adeyemi said: what happens to you is not has important as how you react to it. You may not be able to control the wind but you can control your sail to ensure that the wind takes you to your destination.

How you react to everything is important, life is too precious to make out "a tragedy" out of every comedy. Being critical Robs you of the joy of relationship. We relate with people in our day to day activities, but by being critical you destroy the possibility of a fruitful relationship, even before it ever  started.

Savor the good that comes with every moment, see the good in every situation. Take life easy and enjoy every moment. Life is not hard please don't make it hard. YOU WILL SUCCEED!

Change means progress

SUCCESS MANDATE!

*Change means progress*

It's been said that the only constant thing in life is change. *Those who refuse to change will definitely fade with time.*
John F. Kennedy said "Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future".

The hard truth is that without change, progress will definitely be impossible, yet people resist it so vehemently. Those who wait for things to change before they changed often get short-changed in the process.

Here is the story of Nokia, 
As written by Rahul Gupta Sr.  I believe it will inspire you.

"During the press conference to announce NOKIA being acquired by Microsoft, Nokia CEO ended his speech saying this “we didn’t do anything wrong, but somehow, we lost”. Upon saying that, all his management team, himself included, teared sadly.

Nokia has been a respectable company. They didn’t do anything wrong in their business, however, the world changed too fast. Their opponents were too powerful.

They missed out on learning, they missed out on changing, and thus they lost the opportunity at hand to make it big. Not only did they miss the opportunity to earn big money, they lost their chance of survival.

The message of this story is, if you don’t change, you shall be removed from the competition.

It’s not wrong if you don’t want to learn new things. However, if your thoughts and mindset cannot catch up with time, you will be eliminated.

The advantage you have yesterday, will be replaced by the trends of tomorrow. You don’t have to do anything wrong, as long as your competitors catch the wave and do it RIGHT, you can lose out and fail.

To change and improve yourself is giving yourself a second chance. To be forced by others to change, is like being discarded.

Those who refuse to learn & improve, will definitely one day become redundant & not relevant to the industry. They will learn the lesson in a hard & expensive way".

Are you really changing or you are still stuck to the status quo. Here is a word of advice from Winston Churchill "To improve is to change; to be perfect is to change often". YOU WILL SUCCEED!

SUCCESS MANDATE!
... A daily dose of success nugget.

There things are vital in a man's quest for success and relevance.

This three things are:

* Knowledge
* Planning and
* Action

A mans value can not be greater than the amount of knowledge that is available to him. People will either celebrate you or relegate you based on the level of what you know. Knowledge is key and crucial if a man will truly amount to anything meaningful in life. Since knowledge is broad and wide and no one single person holds the key to all knowledge, It is therefore very pertinent to strive at all cost to keep acquiring it. Because the more you know the better you become.

Secondly, planning is what makes LIFE'S dreams easier to achieve. Someone said " Proper planning prevent poor performance " true success can't and won't be achieved without thorough planning. When a man can make plan, he is half way to success. When a man can plan it  shows that he knows where he is going and he knows how to get there.

And finally, ACTION is the driver to success while planning is the direction. Someone said, success seems to be connected with action. He that must win must work. There are too many knowledgeable failure out there, they know so much such that they are ever willing to proof it  by arguing on the road side, by the news vendor's stand. Knowing too much can be frustrating when you can't properly apply them to your life.

Any dream is achievable and any goal is attainable, only if you can plan your life, work at making your dreams come through and acquire relevant knowledge that will help you get there.
YOU WILL SUCCEED!

Knowledge works when properly applied

SUCCESS MANDATE!
... A daily dose of success nugget

Sometimes enthusiasm is more powerful than professionalism. There are so many stranded professional because they lack the ability to put there skills to work. What you know is irrelevant when you do nothing with it. Knowledge does not equal success, it is constant practice that lead to success. I do not play down on knowledge because knowledge has a very potent force that can transform a non-entity to a celebrity. But Knowledge can not achieve results unless it is properly applied. If knowledge equals success professors should be the richest on earth today. But knowledge does not equal success, it is work that does.

What will you do today that will make you a success tomorrow? Work and success are inseparable twin. The beauty of knowledge is that it helps you work better, and the beauty of working is that it helps you gather knowledge through first hand experience and subsequently leads to success. I have seen a first class graduate without job and I have seen a school drop out living large.

Don't get me wrong, I am not playing down on knowledge, I am an advocate for education myself, i believe that people should go for knowledge and be better informed. But my point here is that you should add hard work to knowledge and your success will know no bound.
YOU WILL SUCCEED!

Power of prudence

SUCCESS MANDATE!
... A daily dose of success nugget

Being prudent is to be discreet, it is to properly apply wisdom in every situation, it is to engage rational as a tool for decision making. "Prudence is what makes someone a great commodities trader - the capacity to face reality squarely in the eye without allowing emotion or ego to get in the way.
-John Ortberg.

Only those who have tried foolishness will know the value of prudence. It is only a matter of time a prudent man will always find himself at the top of the ladder.  If surplus is the goal, prudence is a must. God hates a waster but loves the prudent, the reason why many are in lack is because they do not apply prudence in spending, many of us do a lot of impulse buying - we buy things that we do not need, we spend without budget. Wether personal or corporately anyone who do not apply prudence will not maximize profits. The proofs of prudence is a life of surplus.
There is a lot of difference between prudence and craftiness, most politicians are crafty (not all) while some entrepreneurs are prudent (not all). If you have to buy all the "Aso Ebi" that comes to you, you will soon go broke.

To apply prudence you must:
1. Think before you act
2. Apply wisdom in everything
3. Draw a budget before spending
4. Develop a saving culture
5. Trim your expenses.

"Rashness belongs to the youth but prudence is to the old". Marcus Tullius Cicero. be wise, embrace prudence. YOU WILL SUCCEED!

StandOUT

SUCCESS MANDATE!
... A daily dose of success nugget

Don't blend with the crowd, stand out, carve out your own uniqueness, you are created for a purpose and that purpose you must fulfill. A great thinker said " if you stand for nothing, you will fall for anything " if you do not create your own path, others will draw you along there's. The road may be the same but the destination is not. Not everyone who boarded a bus alight at the same bus stop, and even when they do, they will still head in different directions. Don't get carried away by the excitement of the crowd so as not to miss your alighting point.

There was a baby lion who by chance found himself among the sheep, every time the baby lion goes to the stream with the sheep, a mother lion always appear to them, as soon as the sheep sight the mother lion they all took of including the baby lion. Then one day, while at the stream the baby lion noticed that he doesn't look like the sheep  but rather like the mother lion that always chase them. So he decided not to run. When the mother lion came and saw that the baby lion was one of them she welcome him home.

Dr Steve said "Why fit in when you were born to stand out"
So many people are in a place where they have no business being, and they have refuse to leave because of insecurity. The place is killing there God given vision and they know it, but the fear of how to survive has tied them down. It's time you make a bold decision and GET OUT! Of that place. " It's easy to stand with the crowd but it takes courage to stand alone". Don't let fear cripple you from standing out, find your own path and follow the lead. YOU WILL SUCCEED!

Blessed to be a blessing

SUCCESS MANDATE!
... A daily dose of success nugget

Whom God has blessed no man can curse, God has pronounced a blessing upon you that is beyond every curse, your life is in God's hand not the devil or any man. "And he (God) said in blessing I will bless you and in multiplying I will multiply your seed".(Gen. 22:17) The question is, he whom God has blessed, who can curse? Definitely no man. So therefore, your life is beyond human curses, don't allow any body to deceive you, you are a blessed child of God, he cares and value you, don't be intimidated by the enemy. Hold on to God, he is your refuge and fortress.

Many do not understand their rightful place, therefore they settled for less. God told Abraham that " As far as your eyes can see, so shall your feet possess"(Gen. 23:6) To me, that is like giving someone a blank cheque. People don't think big because they are use to mediocrity. Some people will still doubt the possibility of success even when they are face to face with it. The reason why people doubt success is because they have stayed too long around failure. Success is not for some people but for everyone one who truly desire it. To attract success you must:
* Developed yourself
* Think success
* Speak success
* Believe in yourself
* Celebrate others success
* Move with successful people
* Work hard and Pray hard

You were born to win, don't die as a mediocre. YOU WILL SUCCEED!

People are your best asset

At creation God said "it is not good for man to be alone, I will make an help meet for him" Gen.2:18. Gods plan for all creation is to inter-relate, God didn't intend for us to be an island, His original intention is for us to work in unity. Everybody needs somebody. This our "Holier than thou" attitude won't get us anywhere. J F. Newton said
“People are lonely because they build walls instead of bridges"

the rich knows the value of people and that is why they are getting richer. Where ever you see people you see money because people are the greatest asset you can have. People are a great source of wealth, the link you need to the next breakthrough might just be the neighbor next door to you, but because you won't greet him, how will you know he has it.

A Yoruba proverb says" people are the clothes that covers our nakedness (shame) when I see people my spirit is lifted. Show me one success that you have achieve that people are not involved, God doesn't come to man any more, he send people. If God should come to you in His full nature, will you wait? He is a spirit, how many of us will see a spirit and wait, even if He's carrying a bag full of dollars.

Every body need somebody. Joseph need the king bearers, David needed Samuel, Jesus needed the disciples, we all need Jesus, so who are you not to need someone. It's high time we change our orientation and start placing value on people because you don't know when you will need them.

How to get the best out of people.
1 Respect them
2 Show kindness
3 make yourself friendly
4 Give complement when necessary.
5 Value their input

Constant kindness can accomplish much. As the sun makes ice melt, kindness causes misunderstanding, mistrust and hostility to evaporate.
YOU WILL SUCCEED!
