Don Miguel Ruiz states in his bookThe Four Agreements,"Be impeccable with your word, speak with integrity, and say only what you mean.  Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others.  Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love."  It is so refreshing when someone tells you they are going to do something and they actually do it.  I'm sure this can surprise you since we as a society are use to people not doing what...

Many of us have tried different things in a bid to achieve excellence but failed because we have not been able to put into consideration the law of nature- whatever you put into life, you will get-whatever you sow into the seed-bed of your future, you will reap. Living is a risk. For you to achieve excellence, you have to be ready to take risks towards achieving our goals with strong desire.

Many of us are unwilling to take risks. Taking a calculated risk in terms of setting a...

Achievers do not hesitate when they make mistakes because they feel inferior; they are simply busy making more mistakes and becoming superior. To learn from our failure we have to have the right attitude. The best way to leave is to learn from mistakes of other and not our mistakes, this will help us to move ahead and avoid mistakes we would ordinarily have made.

Opportunities often times disguise itself as obstacles- this is why most people don't recognize them. The greater the...

A philosopher once said that the richest place in the whole world is the grave because many people die without fulfilling their purpose. Every one of us has a talent to develop, use and make great impacts.

Often times, people do nothing to identify and develop their talents. They postpone what ought to be done now till later. It often causes regret when the price of what left undone stares us in the face. Procrastination is an expensive habit. How then do we come out of our...

Every revolution in this world has utterly affected mankind in those aspects of life which depend upon reason . so for as most of us are concerned the principle of relativity may seem a matter of small importance , dealing with infinitesimals which in the ordinary business of life are entirely inappreciable . it does disturb our general scientific methods. For mankind the sun continues to rise and  set. We reckon the  times and the seasons, as men...

THE YOUTHFUL AGE

The youthful age is a crucial stage in a man's life. This is that period that decides how an individual's future would be- I call it "THE DIGGING DEEP STAGE"- where you determine how high you want to go in life. This is where the real individual is formed.

Call any Youth and ask him what He thinks about His future and you'd be amazed at what you hear; great dreams and aspirations. Some are fond of saying they are the leaders of the future, yet many...

Michael Jordan says "Just Do It" well – I'm going to say "DO IT" – I took out the just and I'm getting to the point.  So my friends, DO IT!  I'm going to quote a great sports announcer – Dick Vitale (Dicky V) – "if you want something you got to go out and make it happen."  I say make things happen – we often stay in status quo because of fear, because we don't want to take a risk so we stay in a world of...

I once heard that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.  I then ask how insane am I?  How many of us get caught in a rut in a pattern and we can't understand and ask ourselves why things don't ever change.  We become like those hamsters on the wheel of life.  We do more, we run more but we can never get off the wheel to change our patterns.  To get off the wheel of insanity would mean to change,...

When life serves us lemons let us be sure to make lemonade!  Imagine the sour taste of lemons but when sugar is added it makes a gentle sweet summer drink.  How many lemons have been served your way and what have you done with those lemons?  The choice is yours – those beautiful lemons that get thrown our way sometimes out of the blue – not expecting lemons – these are the situations that blow us away.  A pink slip, a loss of a loved one, a divorce...
