Motivation for Success

In life, we need to be weary and careful of some pits, which can ultimately lead to our pitfall. They may look insignificant and infinitesimal, but they are the proverbial little foxes that destroy the herd. If we descend into those pits, we are heading to a great fall in life, whether physically, spiritually, financially and materially: Such pits include; - Pit of profligacy - Pit of pride - Pit of hatred - Pit of unforgiveness - Pit of disobedience - Pit of complacency - Pit of laziness - Pit of greed and covetousness - Pit of lack of contentment - Pit of Immorality - Pit of Murmuring - Pit of lies and falsehood - Pit of Arrogance An adage says, "When you know the secret of your enemy, it becomes difficult for him/her to defeat you." Now that you have known the pits that lead to pitfalls in life, how do you avoid falling into those pits? - Focus on laying a solid foundation via self-awareness, strategic planning, and a dedication to moral and responsible behaviou...

According to William Shakespeare, “Discretion is a better part of valor.” Discretion Is The Ability To Behave Or Speak Without Attracting Too Much Attention, Especially By Keeping Important Personal Information Secret. Even, Proverbs 2:11 Says That, “Discretion Shall Preserve Thee.”(KJV) What It Means Is That, By Keeping Your Mouth Shut, It Will Prevent You From Revealing Sensitive Personal Information To The Wrong Person. You Don't Need To Tell Your Dream To Anyone. Let Them See The Fulfilment. Exercising Discretion Will Help You To Preserve Your Dreams, Future And Destiny. What You Tell People Is What They Know; What You Don't Tell They Don’t Know. In Order Words, We Should Put A Guard On Our Mouth, By Controlling What We Say. It's Not Everyone Who You Tell Your Dream Or Success Story That Is Happy For You. Let The Success Speaks For Itself. You Don't Know Who Your Enemies Are. An Adage Says, "All Lizards Lay On Their Stomach, But It's Difficult To Know W...

Having faith is putting one's confidence and trust in a higher power or principle, frequently without having to see or comprehend everything in detail. Having faith frequently entails holding onto beliefs that are difficult to prove or physically observable. Faith without wisdom and knowledge is dangerous! It may lead to fatality! What most of us do is to temp God and we call it blind faith. Understand that, Faith is activated in your favour over things you have no power or control over. Wisdom is defined as the correct application of knowledge. Right! Let’s look at how faith without wisdom can lead to fatality. It is common knowledge that a car without good tires or break pads is risky to drive in a journey. Now, wisdom demands that you check and change the tyres if they are worn out or the brake pads if they are not good before embarking on the journey. Those actions are within your control! You don’t expect God to do it for you. Now, if you say because I have faith in God for ...

In our various walks of life, we meet different people with different orientations and perspectives. Sometimes, those we think has all it takes to help us because of their affluence are those who fails us most. Nobody can help you except God lay it in their hearts. If God does not help your helper, he/she cannot help you! The truth is, the one you are looking up to for help also needs help. Everybody in this world in one way or the other needs help, no matter how high you have attained. We should always pray to God to link us with the RIGHT person at the right time. Know that, in this world; - Some people are destiny connectors, while some are destiny disconnectors. - Some people are dream helpers, while some are dream killers. - Some people are vision promoters, while some are vision blindfolders. - Some people are door openers, while some are door closers. - Some people are burden bearers, while some are burden multipliers. - Some people carries affective personality, while some carr...

According to an adage, a child that despises elders' correction is threading the part of destruction. Everybody in life, no matter the age, education, wealth and intellectual background, is prone to committing errors or mistakes. This makes us human. Correction is one of the means to salvage us from the damage that may result from our errors or mistakes, by a corrector, who may likely be a friend or relative, older, wiser, or more experienced than us in life. It is also human nature to despise correction, due to pride, educational status, political position, and arrogance of ignorance, believing you are superior to the corrector. Correction is a method of protection from immediate or future pain and consequences of wrong actions we take, in marriage, relationships, career, ministry, finance, education, association, etc. The Holy Bible emphasizes the importance of receiving and giving correction, as it views it as a path to wisdom, understanding, and spiritual growth, while it also ...

One Of The Things I Haven't Done In The Journey Of My Life So Far Is To ENGAGE IN UNGODLY COMPARISONS. I Do Not Compare Myself With Anybody, Based On Their Level Of Achievement Or Success In Any Area Of Life. As A Christian, I Believe God Created Us With Divinely Programmed Time And Seasons To Achieve Some Things In Life. While It Is Good To Appreciate And Commend The Success Of Others, It Is Dangerous And Unwise To Compare Yourself With Others. The Bible Says Those Who Compare Themselves With Others Are Not Wise." 2 Corinthians 10:12 Stop Comparing Your Life And Success With Others. You Are Unique And A Special Project In The Hands Of God. It Pays To Wait For Your Landmark Manifestation And Glorious Revelation. The Fact That Your Age Mates, Classmates, Or Coursemates Achieved Certain Things Before You Doesn’t Stop You From Achieving More Than Them When Your Appointed Time Comes. Understand That There Is No Latecomer In The Game Of Success. Time Is ONLY The Differentiator! Whe...

Giving Attention To Your Partners In A Relationship, Friendship, Business, Or Ministry Is Key For Intimacy, Understanding, And Healthy Communication. It Is Good To Always Pay Adequate Attention To Certain Issues In Life. However, Giving Too Much Attention To The Wrong Person Or Things Can Lead To Unnecessary Tension, Thereby, Making You Lose Focus To Take Care Of Yourself. Giving Attention To The Wrong Person Can Result In A Waste Of Time, And Resources, Or Emotional Hurt. It Is Good To Give Attention To Others But Give Yourself Attention First. Love Yourself More Than Others Love You. Self-Love Is Not A Sign. The Holy Bible Says We Should Love Our Neighbors As Ourselves, Not More Than Ourselves (Matthew 22:39). It's Even Sad That Sometimes, We Give Our Whole Attention To The Wrong Person, Who Does Not Even Value Us As We Value Them. This Eventually Leads To A Lack Of Appreciation And Tension. According To Yashar Kafi, "One Of The Most Expensive Things You Can Ever Do Is Pay A...
