Starting Over

Image
STARTING OVER by Bob Gass     This little book is a book of hope which  cut across life stories and how to get back on track after several failures, having in mind that those failures are just a stepping stones to what God has for us. The only person who can stop you from moving forward is you ; Regardless of how much you've been through, you can rise up and learn to take control of your life. In it we have  eighteen short devotion-like chapters such as; The Rear View Mirror, Lessons From My Mother, No Excuses, Not Everybody Will Make It, Refuse to Quit, Taking Risks, The Differences is Attitude ,keep playing ,among many others. In the book, I learnt that failing doesn't mean I'm a failure; it just means I have not yet succeeded. It doesn't mean I have accomplished nothing; it just means I've learned something. It doesn't mean I have been a fool; it just means I have had the courage to take a risk. It doesn't mean I have wasted my time; it just

SUCCESS IS INTENTIONAL

The topic is actually a bulky one, but i will try to be as precise as much as I can be. Success is generally defined as an outcome , result or a sort of achievement of one's goal, while Intentional means something deliberate. In other words, our topic simply infers that the achievement of our goals is as a result of our deliberate efforts. The definition of success is relative though, as it differs amongst various individuals, because what a child wants to achieve will be totally different from what a fully grown adult wants to achieve. However we can divide success into four major types/ subsets, and they are: Physical success, Spiritual success, Intellectual success and Emotional success. I clipped these subsets of success from the scripture, Luke 2:52; which says, “And Jesus increased in wisdom- intellectual success, stature-physical success”. Favour with God- spiritual success and favour with man- relationship/emotional success. I  would expatiate briefly on the k

HOW VALUABLE ARE YOU?

 In this part of the world, using questions to answer questions is not a common place thing, hence it becomes inappropriate.However, we're going to be kicking off with some really  mind challenging questions which may not provide an answer to our topic,but will however stir up and give birth to myriads of thought patterns down the rivers of your heart that may somewhat provide answer(s) to this topic  "HOW VALUABLE YOU ARE?" This  indeed is a fascinating but incredibly difficult question. Ponder on these questions: *What's your worth? *If you had to put a price tag on your life- what would it be?; Where would you even start? *How does one define the value of an individual? *What qualities do you possess that you believe contributes to your value? A lot of thoughts may be running through your mind right now. While providing meaningful answers to these questions, I am going to try as much as I can to come from both the Kingdom and  General perspective. KINGD

WHY SHOULD I READ?

TAUGHT BY:faith EDOBOR   Why should you read? You should read because there are a lot of benefits attached to reading which I will be pointing your attention to in this  article.   1:Reading help to improve your Focus and concentration:   When you are fully engaged in a book,it involves closing off the outside world and immersing yourself into the text, which over time will strengthen your attention span by helping you to do away with any form of distractions.   2:It also help to improve your imagination:   You are only limited by what you can imagine and the words described in books;as well as other peoples views and opinions which will also help you expand your understanding of what is possible. By reading a written description of an event or a place, your mind is responsible for creating that image in your head.  3:Reading also help to broaden your horizon:   I know many people are attracted to people in this category;Reading makes you SMARTER:Reading gives you a chance t

YOU MAY AS WELL LEARN TO BE AN ENTREPRENEUR

Lecture title:You May As Well Learn To Be An Entrepreneur. Delivered by: Elvis Ajah(Entrepreneur, Motivational Speaker and a Network Marketing Professional).   This is a very interesting and practical life topic. So,as usual, stay relaxed; saturate your mind to accommodate new ideas and to take risks.     Most people tend to view the word "entrepreneur"  as barbaric and or, used only to describe someone who could not go to  school; or was not privileged to see the four walls of education and as a result, could not have a safe secure job, but relies on doing minor businesses to survive. The entrepreneur is considered a common person without an office job --- they are not salaried earners, so they are undermined. They are disregarded especially when people from other high-paying professions are mentioned---lawyer, banker,engineer, medical doctor, etc. This is how most people tend to view who truly an entrepreneur is. Unknown to these people, is the fact that an entreprene
