Your Best Companion in Dilemmas

I go into a dilemma some weeks ago when I walked down to the end of a very rough road and found two paths leading to two different places. One of which is meant to be home for me. Whatever becomes of my choice, I wouldn’t know until I get to the end of the road. Of course, the road seems similar but experiences on the paths differ.

From my standpoint, I would never know what I will face on any of the paths, so I must rely on my intuition, my inner voice, something within me(or someone If I may say) to lead me in the right path, someone who knows all that it offers.

As I stood, I found myself experience so
many feelings and thoughts clouding my mind and so many voices in my head competing to be a part of my final decision. A mixture of fear with a large dose of anxiety coupled with the dark skies already approaching and having limited time to get home.

Hmmm!!! Isn’t that what we all face on a daily basis? Having options and wondering which is best for us? Questions about our career; should I take the job or should I start my own business? Should I get married now or wait? Should I buy that dress or save the money? Should I invest in that business or not? These questions are inexhaustible but we still have to make them because they determine our final outcome, our future.

So, I decided on a path, following the inner voice within me. And as I started the journey, I faced many challenges. The path bumpy sometimes, smooth sometimes. But for every challenge I faced, the inward voice never left me, there was always a way out for me. Sometimes it was dark, but the strength I receive from the inner voice gave light to my path and I am sure never to stumble and fall.

There was also a time, the road seemed not to have an end, I saw another path out of the way and then I faced the same “dilemmic situation” similar to the one in the beginning and contesting with my innermost fears but the inner voice held me and led me back to the path. Not long after that, I saw the light ahead and made it home.
Now at home, I looked back and saw the path I walked, it was short, yet the process looked long. Also I saw something different; I was not the same person I used to be when I was at the beginning of the path. I had grown in hope, believing I will get to the end, I even saw myself Graced for another journey, ready to face more battles.
Then I thought what if I had taken the other path, where would it have led me? And then remembered the inner voice that guided me to take the first step and led me all through the path and I thanked God for it.

It’s the same for every human being. We are graced with an inner voice that is meant to guide us to walk in the right path and for making right decisions. Some call it the conscience, the truth is we all have it within.
It is therefore our responsibility to allow the inner voice to lead us and not how we feel in our emotions. The more we heed to the voice, the more we are led to greater accomplishments in our lives, the more we don’t yield to it and the voice is silenced, the more difficulty we face in our daily affairs.

Why don’t you start today? Why don’t you listen to your inner voice? No one has the time to sit with you telling you the best step to take for every decision but your inner voice will always be there.


Don’t quench it
Don’t silence it
Heed to it
Your future depends on it.

May this New Year bring to you a full measure of walking in favourable paths as you heed to your inner voice.

Your Character and Your Environs

Ken grew up in a home where he was taught by his parents’ life’s principles that works for anyone despite race, colour or location. He was entrenched in values of honesty, truthfulness, love, kindness, selflessness. He saw every human being as an extension of God. He never looked down on anyone.

Quick to help, tactful in speech, compassionate in his touch, loving with his looks. His words were always fitting. He knew when to speak and when to be silent. He doesn’t easily take offence yet quick to forgive anyone who offends him. With such beauty in character, Ken reflected more of it in his handsome, rugged looks that ladies can’t seem to get enough of. Humble with his views, he treated women with respect and care, fleeing from any threat to his values.

Now, things aren’t always perfect in Ken’s life; experiencing delays and challenges but he just knew that life was too short to worry on imperfections. He was quick to admit mistakes, learn from them and budge ahead for a better outcome. With a beautiful attitude towards life, miracles kept happening to him. He graduated top of his class and finally secured a wonderful job in a multinational oil and gas company. He resumed with great excitement, a career path lodged and no turning back on purpose.

So, he faced it. A new environment. Challenging at first, but he kept on at work. His charisma drew people to him, his character kept some with him. He saw life differently, was sometimes seen as a genius but he knew he was only being favoured. Soon, he faced tougher challenges. From the great principled home to a garland unkempt environment. How could he survive not been choked by the thorns in the new environment? How will he stay positive when the environment is full of lies, deceits and greed? It was not easy for Ken. There were times he almost compromised on his values falsifying figures but whenever he is reminded of who he is and meant to be, he breaks free and does right.

Some that drew to him soon left him. Their path seemed to be on the slippery surface. They don’t mind going with the crowd just to satisfy their craving and walking with Ken was depriving them of it, so quickly they left him. Nevertheless, this character paid off for Ken someday. He waited and soon was recognized not only for his work but more for his outstanding character. He became the new definition of behaviour needed in the environment by all staffs.

Then Ken made a discovery, “You are what you make your environment to be”. No matter how corrupted an environment is, home, office, school, business; your character shapes the environment to be what you are.

Our environment is full of lies, because our value as a nation does not lay emphasis on truthfulness. These lies have wearied some, trapped some, killed some, marred the lives of some and separated some from who they were created to be. But there is hope for change in any environment.

Where are you now? What problems are you facing in your environment?

As a family, community, society, state, country or nation, the solution to the problems we face in our environment is in all of us. We need to build up a character that defies lies and embraces truth; that says yes to integrity and no to dishonesty; that seeks to propagate the right way to doing things and despise the wrong way; that genuinely love people and do not covet other people’s things.
We can change our homes, offices, communities, societies, nation if we individually and collectively stand for the truth anywhere we are. It is the only way to bring the change we dream to reality.

Change is needed, Change is real

WHO DO YOU LISTEN TO?

Do you know that who you are today is a combination of what your parents said to you, perspective of friends about you, mindset in the environment, what you have said to yourself and what God has said about you? Yes it is.
What you hear consistently for a while over and over again enters into your heart and influences your decisions, actions and eventually your character. So yes, your parents, your friends, your environment, yourself and God have been an influence in who you are today.

Some of us have been told so many negative words by people; some have encouraged us and told us we can do anything. Some haven’t said any negative words, but they have discouraged us from taking bold steps. Some have also counseled us so we don’t make mistakes while some have shared their own experiences and made conclusions on the way life is, which has discouraged us from trying harder.

What about the mindset from the environment; cultural thinking and mental models which are prone to poverty than prosperity; mindset that teaches greed and corruption as the legit way of accumulating wealth; a culture that looks down on the young and treat the poor unjustly; a self centered environment that teaches less or not on Giving. This cultural thinking we hear everyday subtly influences who we become.

Maybe we even disagree with what people say about us or what the environment teaches, what about you? What do you say to yourself? How do you see yourself? Do you see greatness and speak it into your life even when everything seems contrary? Do you believe you are blessed in every way, creative to make something out of nothing? Or do you see yourself as a victim, suffering and at the mercy of others? What you say to yourself influences who you become in life.
Or do you listen to God your creator who knows the reason he created you, for good and not for evil? Do you listen to the sweet words he speaks all the time about you and do you believe it? Or do you just discard all He says? Who you listen to matters a lot. It determines who you become.

So my friends take a good look at yourself and where you are right now; you are who you listened to and it’s imperative you check well and determine what to do next. Do you want to stay the way you are or do you want to become who you are meant to be? Do you desire a change in your outcome? Then your income is imperative. Your income (not money) is the combination of thoughts, patterns and words you hear that shapes who you are within and determines your outcome.

From all the places you hear as mentioned earlier, only one is much needed for a better outcome and that is from God your creator. No man knows your purpose, your reason for existence, only God knows. Even you do not know until you ask your creator. Listen to what he has to say to you, ask him questions he is ready to answer, obey what he says, and let him chart your path so you can live life to fulfillment.

He has promised that in the midst of storms and confusion, he will guide you out of it and saturate your life with peace. In decision making, he will be the voice you need to hear to take a left or right. He will do it because He is God and you are his most prized possession.

My friends take a new turn to the events of your life by choosing to hear only what God says concerning you, believe it and life for you will be a long and satisfying one.

Thanks for reading

BREAKING OUT OF THE BOX; RESHAPE

A shape does not change. That is why it is called Shape. Molded to be in one position or in a way forever. It can have many angles and sides but it cannot go beyond what it is. For example; a triangle cannot be a square no matter how big it might try to expand into. It is forever shaped to be a triangle.
Now picture this, environments or communities have their unique shape, and can be termed as Culture. It’s a mindset, a way of thinking, a view that makes the community what it is. This is applicable in every sector. There are organizational cultures, family traditions, school mottos, a country’s national anthem, generational trends, myths and legends, belief system and many more. It can be good, yet it can be limiting or disastrous in some cases and in some it has become strongholds that have ruined the people in it. In human beings, this culture can be termed as habits. Some good, some bad. When the bad ones become strongholds they hold on to its hosts tightly like a parasite or like a lion holding tightly to its prey. A shaking off can’t be easy, but isn’t impossible.
Beautiful as some of such cultures can be, we need to understand that life evolves. There is no generation that should remain the same, there needs to be changes, growth, progress, enlargement. If a generation refuses to evolve, it would be unable to achieve its great, unusual and spectacular stature it is meant to reach.

So, let us say the triangle tries to change to a pentagon having 5 sides; adding two more sides to it. That process is called the Breaking Out. It requires a change in view, perspective, disposition and it has to be done in a creative way. If this is done successfully, a new culture has been created. In life we all have to breakout from cultures within us and around us if we want to do what eyes have not seen or ears heard or mind conceive. We need to decide to reshape, reposition and realign and it must be done continuously. We need to consciously look within, eliminate thoughts that must be limiting us, that have stood as giant walls and see a tunnel that leads to light instead.
We must see past victories and shake them off to see greater victories ahead. We must challenge the way of thinking in our environment that deprives people from being all they should be and pull out such cultures/strongholds wherever it is rooted and replant the right thinking that brings good to all.
We must see differently, think differently and be different so that there will be differences in our generation that the new generation will use what we have achieved as a platform to rise higher in life. If we allow ourselves boxed, triangled, squared, pentagoned or shaped in a specific way, we will never know how else or better we could have been.
See it differently today! You are created for greatness more than you can ever think or say.

Inspired by the Holy Spirit

THE SPEAKER, THE FIRST PARTAKER


Words can be tweaked, rearranged and shuffled to give different meanings and out of every word, other words can be formed, found and produced. For instance from the word “WORDS”, over 7 words can be formed from it: sword, rods, sow, rows, or, so, do etc. therefore, we can say, words produce fruits of more words. Out of our lips words come forth, it means our lips produce fruits which are words. There are different products formed, good or bad. What however determines the outcome is the source from where it proceeds from which is the heart.

A farmer who plants seeds considers many factors in planting. The ground tilled properly, the right amount of water and other necessities. As the farmer harvests, he is the first to be the partaker of what he harvests before selling to others.
It’s the same process with words spoken by everyone. You are the first partaker of the words you say. You eat of the fruits of your lips first before others eat it. So what do you produce out of your lips? Good fruits or bad fruits? If you lie, you lie to yourself first before you lie to others, if you slander, you are the first partaker, if you bless others you are first blessed, if you encourage others you are encouraged first (Pause and think calmly). This means whatsoever you say comes to you first.
So, what are you saying now?

Are you complaining, grumbling, murmuring, and worrying? It’s not right. God created our lips to give him thanks, glorify his name and acknowledge him as God. We all in diverse ways frustrate our own lives because of what we say. We are not cautious or conscious of what we say to ourselves and to others.

If you look back in your life, wherever you are now is a product of what you say to yourself through what you have said to others. If you feel that you have been very critical in your words towards others and you haven’t been speaking well of yourself, there’s a way out.

God created your lips and has the capacity to heal it and give you a new speech. Forgive yourself of all the bad words you have spoken to others and to yourself, repent of them and start afresh letting God speak through you always.

We are meant to encourage others when they are weighed down, we are meant to speak the truth all the time and let lies be far from our lips, we are not meant to slander others, speak evil or gossip about other people’s private lives or weaknesses.

The more we become conscious of this and speak kind word to others remembering we are speaking to ourselves then, we have already started change in our lives and in our society.
Speak-thinking! There is more gain in speaking well.

Have a great week!

Learning With a Disciplined Outline



Once a baby is born, learning begins. The baby learns to suck on the mum’s breast without prior lectures. The baby learns to keep his or her pupil stable on an object, and then learn to crawl, to walk,to talk, to think. It is a whole long process of daily learning for the baby as he/she grows.
        If a baby doesn’t grow accordingly, there’s a problem. 

The parents are worried and medical attention is given to the baby to enable proper learning and growth as it was meant to. The growth process of a baby takes a lot of discipline, a lot of falling down and standing up, but they don’t give up. They keep trying until they are good at it.

How come as adults we forget that with every learning process comes its discipline outline. We want to know but we don’t want to go through the process of discipline which will include falling, making mistakes, abstaining from what we crave for so we develop and get what we really need.
Nothing learnt comes without a process of discipline and only those who love learning and want to know will love the discipline that accompanies it. If you run away from discipline, if you despise correction and reproof, if you disobey instructions, you can’t learn anything you are shortsighted and myopic.

Just like a baby learns everything, so must we learn in every area of our lives and every area requires its own discipline outline which will differ in its time and process for learning or adopting the right values needed to be instilled. We all need to draft out the required discipline in every area of our life and to know the right thing to do and the right way to live and behave.

See some of the categories below, you can add to it as it applies to you.
·       
            Our relationship with God: we need to be disciplined in praying and having a secret place to commune with God EVERYDAY.
·         
Family: this is broken to three
§  Your Husband/Wife: Discipline in the way we treat each other with respect, love and submission
§  Children: Treat your children, discipline them so they will not bring shame to you when they grow up, love them with the right character.
§  Extended Family: Be available for sisters, brothers, cousins, and in-laws, pray for them, and don’t hide from them when they are in need.
·         Personal development: Be disciplined in character development, people management, speak the truth at all times , treat yourself very well, speak tactfully and respond to situations maturely.
·         Purpose: Discipline in the fulfillment of your purpose, seeing others and meeting their needs.
·         Career: Discipline in building career, business, working hard and smart, consistently and doggedly to achieve laid plans.
·         Finance: Discipline with your money. Give God first, give to others, save as much as you can, lend to nations and NEVER borrow.
·         Relationships: Discipline in the way you treat others, colleagues at work and friends, don’t slanders others, gossip about others’ weaknesses or sins, speak well of others, see the best in others at all times even in very bad situations, love others genuinely.
·         Health: Discipline with your body, in what you eat and drink and the quantity, medical checkups and regular exercise to keep your physical body refreshed at all times

When each of the area of our lives takes the required discipline, we develop properly and reach out to others, fulfill our purpose and leave on earth great examples for others to follow. It won’t be easy, but when you love learning and adopt the discipline that comes with it, you make out of your life what pleases God and fulfils His will.

I pray for God’s strength on you as you focus on developing through discipline.

Thank you so much for reading; Enjoy the new month on a different level.

Feed On the Right things

Eyes sees, Ears hear, our Heart receives it all, processing the data drawn from the store without walls. As the heart receives it, each data received goes through some processing from the gull of the human operating system filled with experiences from the past,upbringing, cultural background,education, emotional stability and the likes.

To give the processed information expression, the mouth expresses it through words. Words are so important they make or mar,they are life giving or life taking, snares or saves, traps or delivers created with full thought and must be carefully thought through before being expressed. As powerful and effective as words are, it is trivialised in most case until its consequences are evident and then we realise its base. The base is the HEART, the factory of creation from whence these words come from, the place where all data caught goes through a process of reconstruction. 

Since the heart is the key, guarding it is our main responsibility. From it, all is produced determining one's life course. it can assume different patterns depending on what it is fed with through the eyes and ears. It can be grieved, hardened, deceived. It can also be stirred,changed and can adhere to instructions.

What are you feeding your heart my friend through the books you read, movies you watch, music you listen to,opinions you take in from people? What does your heart feed on? Good things or Bad things? 
It is easy to find out, try listen to your words spoken to others in different situations and you can tell if you have fed your heart with the right things or with the wrong things.

What you think from and what you have heard and seen is what you will say. It is a standard principle of life, it can't be changed but you can choose to do it the right way and let your life draw towards the right path.

My challenge to all of us today is, feed your heart with the good things, what you say is what you become and what you say is what you have fed into your heart. Go through the process of feeding your heart with the right things, your mouth will speak right things and your life will turn out well.

I believe God's Grace is sufficient to help us choose the right things to see and listen to and Grace to speak the right words in living right.

I love you all and do have a great week of miracles through the spoken word from your mouth.

Speak-Thinking to the Top.

Speak Thinking: GRIEFS, ITS EFFECT

Speak Thinking: GRIEFS, ITS EFFECT: Grief is an uncomfortable feeling, a pain, distress, a hurt, sometimes a scar from the past. It is different from a physical wound becau...

GRIEFS, ITS EFFECT



Grief is an uncomfortable feeling, a pain, distress, a hurt, sometimes a scar from the past. It is different from a physical wound because it can’t be seen, but if you can picture an injury and how it looks, that is the same effect grief has on the mind of anyone plagued with such feelings. It is an invincible injury.

 Its impact on anyone is more important than the impact of a physical wound because the medication for it to heal is intangible and it requires discipline than any physical wound. It can’t be seen yet everyone carries one form of grief or another everywhere they go. Of course it reflects on the faces, words and actions of the carriers but in most cases they are not aware or conscious of the effect it has in them.
Grief takes a process and grows in two distinct directions. It can either grow up or grow down. That means it can either be beneficial or dangerous. It can either be Godly or worldly. When growing upwards, it grows faster receiving freshness and light making it better just like a plant, however when growing downwards it clouds the carrier, getting them trapped in the dark.

Godly grief is from God. It is meant to last only for a little while and to help the carrier go and grow through a process. It is permitted by God to happen to produce a better result in the person. This process starts from repentance: accepting one’s mistake and being remorseful about it. It leads to salvation, then to deliverance from evil. At this point, the person is not plagued by past mistakes and can enjoy liberty and joy for the future. With no regret because all the past is wiped away, only thanksgiving and a new dimension/perspective to life is birthed in the person.
But worldly grief is from the world, caused as a result of worldly cares. It also goes through a process and it is a long one leading astray. It lasts forever

  When it comes, it leads to helplessness/sorrow; a feeling of loss and hopelessness, a feeling like no one cares and because of the loss there is no more hope in life. This leads to guilt and guilt is a self condemning situation; where the carrier condemns and feels guilty for him/herself. After a long while, this leads to depression, a sorry state for oneself and then regrets for actions and decisions made. If not helped, it leads to suicidal tendencies; the carrier begins to think of taking his/her life and then ultimately death. Sometimes this process can take a short time; depending on how grievous the situation is or the carrier’s temperaments/personality.

Worldly grief obviously and ultimately leads to death and it is one of the major challenges we have in the world Inspite of economic development. Since we all have our own grief levels, we need to watch out for ourselves and loved ones. One major way of not falling into worldly grief is to have a habit of confession. When you have done wrong or made a mistake open up and quickly tell someone who can help you so you can come out of it.

What traps majority of people into grief and guilt is the art of “sealed –lips”. I know in our part of the world we are very judgmental and hypocritical; if a friend opens up to another friend of certain mistakes maybe stealing, fornication or adultery, the friend perceives him as a bad person and makes himself holy and righteous when he is even doing worse things. This is part of the reasons why people keep quiet in their mistakes and it only gets worse. Change does not happen on its own, it is done by conscious and deliberate effort and that is why it is difficult to change.

However, we can’t afford to become slaves to our weaknesses/mistakes, we have to change and make them strengths. We need to forgive ourselves of our own past, open up and help others too by being truthful of our own mistakes and showing them how to overcome it.

From the growing process of Godly and worldly grief, Godly grief shows and teaches us genuine love, openness, forgiving one another, tolerance and accommodation for others and oneself. This will lead to a better and sane society where we will act towards one another with a genuine heart. Worldly grief only grows from one level of pain and sorrow to another. It teaches us nothing, it only leads to bitterness, regret and death. It does not benefit us in our society in anyway.

Keeping away from worldly grief is the best and the best way is to first be a good listener to others and ensure you are not judgmental towards them. Then gradually seek those around you and find someone who would listen and not judge you but will be genuinely interested in helping you become better. With this done, we will flow in the direction of Godly grief, love one another genuinely and the result will be a better society for us all.

Thank you for reading.Have JOYFULL week.

What is your Thought-album like?



Hello my friends,

Have you ever given it a thought how what you think would look like in pictures? Have you ever wondered how your” thought-album” would be? We all think, yes we do!  But are they good thoughts or bad thoughts? Besides if we look at our life now, where we are is the product of our thoughts. That means we are living life flipping through the pages of our thought-album.

We as humans are creators just like God our creator. He showed us how to create because he created first in his thoughts the heavens and earth before he started working them out. That is also the same way he created us: he packaged all we will ever be, what he wants us to be, the purpose we are to fulfill and knitted us together in seclusion then he brought us out to the open to exhibit his creative works on earth.

That is the same way God wants us to create. He has put in us the capacity to create just like him; first in our thoughts then with our hands. He equipped us with a tool called Imagination so we can create in our thoughts (in seclusion where no one knows and sees) and then bring them out for others to benefit from it.

This powerful tool can’t be limited by time or place, it can be used to dream big, create and recreate new things, travel anywhere and have dominion on this earth that has been given to us by God. Thus, whatever it is used for or concentrated on is what it will produce.

Therefore my friends, what sort of image do you have in your mind right now? Is it a winning image or a failure image? What you see is what you will become, what you see within is what you will create with your hands.

If you want any area of your life to have a unique turnaround, then see something different from what you have always seen. Regardless of your physical circumstances, once you change what comes from within, the outside will adjust to it.

What is your thought album like?

The powerful thing about your imagination is that for as long as you allow God to help you picture great things(because I know my God will never think evil because there is no evil in him), then you can be sure to have great dreams not just in thoughts but also in your hands.

So my friends, open a new album today, start using all that you have within to think all the good you can and even more, don’t let past failure or achievements hold you from creating a new and better future for yourself. For as long as your pictures are great, your future is, no matter the challenges you face.
As we have started a new year and already in a new month forget the past, forge ahead, create a new thought-album and see how your barns will be filled with good, great and awesome things.

Do have a Great-Thinking Week

Speak Thinking: Comforted to Comfort others

Comforted to Comfort others

Our lives are filled with  diverse experiences  both good and bad. Some has made us bitter, angry and sad, while some has made us better, happy and glad. The truth is, who we are right now results from our responses to our experiences which has shaped our way of thinking,judgement and disposition to life.

However, the reason for these experiences supersedes us. When we experience some situations and get out of them or (maybe not), it is not only for ourselves, it is for us to comfort and encourage others who will go through the same situation in the future or who are presently going through it and does not know how to get out of it.

This is what happens: let's say you failed an examination before and this experience made you very unhappy. You went through a time of crying,feelings of guilt and failure,maybe it even delayed you from moving forward with your mates and you felt very bad. But then, you got encouraged by someone, or you encouraged yourself and studied hard, prepared well and rewrote the exams and passed excellence:  this experience is not only for you, you already have a story to tell someone in a similar situation and help the person get out of it,making them have a better life.

That is what it really means to comfort others, to add value to others, to help others and to make God happy which is the ultimate in life.

Our experiences in life must go beyond self-aggrandizement,enjoying it all alone. God allows us to go through some experiences  in order to make us strong and to help others by strengthening them and comforting them. It doesn't matter the situation maybe from inadequacies to abundance,failure to success,barrenness to fruitfulness, telling our stories goes a long way to reach out and help others.

Keeping quiet is just being selfish. God wants us to talk about how he helped us so that others can trust him and turn to him also for help. So my friends, as you think through your life what experiences have you that will help others, please take time to share with us at the comment section. You don't know who really needs help around you until you start speaking of your challenges and how you overcame them through God.

Also, know that life is filled with daily experiences,so prepare for them with the heart not only to enjoy but to also help others too.

Its a new week with new experiences and as you surmount them take time to share with anyone around you and be ready to listen to others share their experiences too.

Don't give up! You are already at the edge of a miracle.

I love you, Thank you for reading and have a wonderful week.

MAKING WHERE YOU ARE EXCITING


Every environment is the product of the people living in it. An environment can only develop to the level of the thoughts in the mind of its inhabitants. Thus, we have the responsibility to make it what we want it to be. An environment is vast; it extends from the home where we live to our office where we work, our schools where we study, our market where we trade, our buses/cars our means of transportation, in the church/mosque our place of worship, anywhere. Think about it my friends, where you are right now did not just appear, someone made it what it is and the someone is you and I.
So, we have a big responsibility to make wherever we find ourselves what we want it to be. If you are at work, or the CEO of a company, or bargaining at the market with a seller, you are the one that will make the environment a tensed, exciting or relaxed one. This simply means that you have the ability to create where you are and/or recreate it if it is not good.
How would you like an environment to be? Exciting, fun, peaceful, sociable? You have to make it like that. For example, in Nigeria today our environment is what we see because that is what we created, we did it ourselves; dirty, tensed, rough, noisy, pollution and also wickedness. We aren’t courteous, we don’t love each other, or treat one other well, we shout a lot on each other, it is not good, it makes us stressed, worn-out and not good looking which invariably affects our environment.

If we want to see things different, we need to start doing things differently.
Sam Adeyemi, a motivational speaker of success power once said that “Nigerians know what they don’t want but Nigerians don’t know what they want”.
I want to agree with that because we all complain about everything, thinking our complaints will change what is not right, forgetting that we created what is wrong and for us to see new things we need to start seeing it within and recreating it Individually, collectively, as a community, a society and as a nation.
This principle applies to every area of our lives; in marriage you (husband and wife) are the ones to make your marriage, home, environment exciting not the media, home videos or the internet. If you want your marriage to work you need to see it working and make it work.
In business, you want your workers/staffs to be productive, make the environment exciting, warm, safe not tensed or trampling and affecting their self esteem. As time grows and as this continues, their countenance reflects on their job. If it’s good, productivity increases, if not staffs resign and productivity reduces. Think of any area, you are the one responsible to make it exciting.
This is a new year my friends, how do you want it to be? Great, awesome, increase at work, promotion? What are your goals? You are the one to work them out. If your environment is dirty, quit complaining, clean it, make it what it should be.
This year I believe is a wonderful year for as many who are ready to make it what they want it to be for them. My friends, I challenge you today, to go all the way this year, trusting God to go with you in all your plans as you work them out.

I love you all for reading, please share with anyone you love and please comment on my blog, would love to hear from you.

Happy Enlargement New Year to you my friends,

Ciao
