CHANGE

The most constant thing in life is CHANGE. Even the dead change (you could try if you want to find out). But why is it that many of us are afraid of change? Why do we love maintaining the status quo? Why do we love our comfort zone? Well i think it's because we are not given the opportunity of seeing the future(before it comes). Today is all we have, so we tend to remain as "maintenance officer" instead of CHANGE AGENTS. My advise:
Tomorrow will come whether we want it or not.
It's your decision what your tomorrow will look like.

If you dont make a decision, someone will give you one to work with(trust me, you dont want that).
Step out into the dark and embrace change. It's the only guarantee for the future.
You cant expect to get a different result tomorrow if you are using yesterday's techniques today. You've gotta be creative. It's not as easy as it sounds, but with practice, you'll be perfect.

THE SECRET TO GREAT DAYS (III)

“The exercise of writing and rewriting your goals everyday is one of the most powerful you will ever learn.”

 

Practice Daily Visualization
Calmly visualize your goal as a reality. Close your eyes, relax, smile, and see your goal as though it were already a reality. Rewrite your major goals everyday in the present tense. Rewrite them as though they already existed. Write "I earn X NAIRA." "I have a net worth of X." "I weigh a certain number of Kilogram." This exercise of writing and rewriting your goals everyday is one of the most powerful you will ever learn.

Great Day!

THE SECRET TO GREAT DAYS (II)

“The things that you do in the first hour prepare your mind and set you up for the entire day”

 

Feed Your Mind With Positive Ideas
This is called the Golden Hour. The first hour sets the tone for the day. The things that you do in the first hour prepare your mind and set you up for the entire day. During the first thirty to sixty minutes, take time to think and review your plans for the future. If you wake up angry and remain angry for the next 30mins, it is sure you’ll have a BAD day all through…….Always wake up on the right side…..the right side is in your mind, not on the bed.

 

Great Day!

PROMOTION!!!

“You have to believe in yourself, that's the secret. Even when I was in the orphanage, when I was roaming the street trying to find enough to eat, even then I thought of myself as the greatest actor in the world”

-       Charlie Chaplin, Actor

 

All great individuals that I have known have one thing in common – “SELF LOVE”. You need to develop that “GOOD” feeling about yourself, no one else will do it for you. Remember that old school line….”I feel good, da  da da da da da da….I know that I would now……..so good….so good….”

 

If you feel good about yourself, it doesn’t matter what any other person feels. Love yourself, love your body shape, love your height, love your complexion, love your background……LOVE EVERYTHING!!

It’s a secret that’ll help you get promoted.

 

Have a GREAT Day!

DON'T BELIEVE A LIE!

"Success is 99 percent failure”

---Soichire Honda

 

Our educational system has taught us not to make mistakes, that’s why even primary school students cheat. They don’t want “aunty” to beat them when correction is done because “aunty” will always call them “Olodo”.

This is wrong you know; without mistakes we don’t get anywhere….ask Thomas Edison, Abraham Lincoln, Nelson Mandela, the list is endless…….

Don’t be afraid of failure……..it’s not him that falls down that has failed, it is he that stays down.      Dare to Succeed!!

 

 

Have a blissful weekend.

INTEGRITY

“Real integrity is doing the right thing, knowing that nobody's going to know whether you did it or not”

-       Oprah Winfrey, talk-show host

 

Do what is right, whether it’s dark or not……

 

Great Day!

BE PASSIONATE!!! Live Your Dream

"The core problem is not that we are too passionate about bad things,

 but that we are not passionate enough about good things"--- Larry Crabb

Our educational system has so much (indirectly) taught us to focus so much attention on our weaknesses, at the expense of our strenghts. If we focus just 50% of the amount of energy we hitherto focused on our weaknesses on our strength, we will climb the highest mountains and sail across the deepest oceans of our lives.

Make a determination today to focus more of your energy on what you know to do best. It pays!

HOW TO WIN (II)

“As long as a person doesn't admit he's defeated, he is not defeated-he's just a little behind, and isn't through fighting”

-- Darrell Royal, football coach

 

Failure is a decision. Decisions are made in the mind. The state of your mind determines the quality of your decisions. The quality of your decisions is a factor of how developed your mind is. Great minds are known to be readers. Readers are Leaders. You start dying the moment you stop reading. Can you see how linked they all are?..........read, read, read..

The decision is yours.

Have A Fulfilled Day @ Work.

Key To Achievement

"I learned that we can do anything, but we can't do everything.. at least not at the same time. So think of your priorities not in terms of what activities you do, but when you do them. Timing is everything."
-- Dan Millman, Author

Recognize your priorities and do them. You may have to offend some people in the course of that. Never mind! People only associate with winners. Go for Gold, and everyone will come for you, even your greatest enemies.

Have a great day!

Cultivate The Attitude of Winning

If Columbus had turned back, no one would have blamed him. No one would have remembered him, either.

-- Anonymous
The truth is that nobody ever knows you are at the edge of success, but giving up at any point in time will xpose you. Only those who dont QUIT will WIN. Quiters never Win.

Always do all you can when you can, and follow it to a successful end. Never believe those who tell you it's IMPOSSIBLE(they actually dont know any better). Stand your ground and fight for your dream. No one would have blamed Colombus, butmore importantly, no one would have remembered him.

Have a great day!

Success

I read a quote recently and it blew my mind because most often we tend to forget or maybe we just are indifferent about life. It goes thus:

"A man with ability and the desire to accomplish something can do anything"
-- Donald Kircher
Did you see that? Everything we desire to accomplish in life can be made possible with just two ingredients- Ability & Desire. Period!
Ability is a function of continous learning and practice. Desire on the other hand is a function of inner processes(your Mind).

Determine today to succeed, and GO FOR IT!
Increase your knowledge and stretch your imagination.

You can achieve whatever you believe long enough.

Have a great day!

KEEP YOUR GOAL ALIVE!

This post is meant to stir you up once again to keep aiming at your goal. I was listening to Bishop T.D. Jakes this morning speaking about 'working in a hostile environment', and he said that one of the things that keeps you going even in that hostile work environment is having the mindset that where you are now should not define where you're going.

It is absolutely true that even the whole universe is a hostile environment- you hear of people dying everyday, accidents everywhere, wars, natural disasters, etc, but we still got to live anyway.There is no 'comfort zone' anywhere on earth really; that is why even in the best otganisation, that hostility is still there. Everybody cannot like you no matter how nice or handsome you are. But we still must live and succeed!

One of the attitudes to develop to survive in this hostile environment is to remember that
'where you are is not a definition of where you are going'
.Get the best of where you are now, having the future in mind.You must always keep your mind on the goal. Never let it out of your sight.Never mind what your surrounding or environment is throwing at you; whether pebbles or rocks. Shake them off, and step on them to get higher. Dont let every little thing stop you. You have to move on.

Power To FInish

Once you start a working on something, don't be afraid of failure and don't abandon it. People who work sincerely are the happiest."

Eat That Frog!

You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You must do the thing which you think you cannot do. - Eleanor Roosevelt

Have The Right Spirit

The problem is not that there are problems. The problem is expecting otherwise and thinking that having problems is a problem. -Theodore Rubin
