Knowledge

Indeed...
If we know better, we'll do better.
There may have been some very silly things we did in the past that when we remember, we laugh at our stupidity, cover our faces in shame or go as far as weeping because of the pain still staring us in the face because of a past error...

Life is to an extent predictable. At least the principle of sowing and reaping doesn't fail in any area you apply it to.

"Le futur commence aujourd'hui"
says my Primary school Motto meaning: "Tomorrow begins today"
Want a blissful future? The future isn't ahead. No! It's inside of you! You live it out every second... little by little, your future unfolds from within you to the outer world.

If what you're doing now isn't in line with the future you envisage, if it'll make you cover your face in shame tomorrow; then you've got to retreat, re strategize and get back on the right track. Always bearing in mind that you're on your own lane in destiny.
Someday, your own story line will finish without you even knowing and the Script Writer who is also the Director will scream "Cut!"  because you (the cast) are done with your role and you probably never even read the script and may have acted rubbish all your life time...

It's time to redeem the time (time to buy back time). Ask for the script of your own life, find out, ask, seek, knock, at least find out what you're even doing here so that your curtain won't be drawn just when you have started to recite your lines...

Seek to know. Knowledge empowers and saves from destruction.

"...seek and you shall find..." (Matt. 7:7)

''My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge " (Hosea 4:6)

Success Story: How I went from a CGPA of 2.29 to 4.00 within a Semester

By -

This is a Success Story shared by Olusola O'sola Fapohunda, a graduate of the Federal University of Technology, Akure. ----- In early 2010, I went with about four other guys in my department - to visit our level registration officer. We wanted to check our result. Each one of us, was with a paper and a pen. The lecturer in charge asked for our matriculation numbers and one after the other, he was reeling off grades, GPA and CGPA. He eventually got to me and I heard a digit that sounded like I've been shot. God! Me! 2.29. I've earned myself Grade E in some three unit courses and my best course was APH301, which I had a B with a score of 69. About six months later, I went to check my 300 level second semester result and I now had a CGPA of 4.00. That was the happiest day of my University education. I was rolling on the floor of the room. The previous semester has been hell, yet the one that followed it yielded this awesome result! What did I do? What did I change? What s...

What Exactly Do We Do In Relationships?

By -

"HELP! I am 25years old. Before I married my husband, he used to bring all sought of cars to visit me in my house and when I asked the job he does, he told me that he is a car dealer. Just three months after our marriage, I got to know that he works at a car washing bay". So for 25 years on earth even after wasting four years on campus to be confirmed a graduate, someone can still be operating at this level of foolishness, in this modern time? What exactly do we do in relationships? Aside sex, money, gifts and outings. What do we really define relationship to be? Why won't marriages continue to fail when major priorities are been neglected? Ladies and Gentlemen hear me, so long as are we only interested for that momentary gifts that's never enough even after gathering from different sources, our joy in relationships can never be actualized! Forget it, no prayers. "Any Friendship Without An Exchange Of Impact is Equal to Fendship" – Evans Chima W. So fa...

Psychology of Positive Thinking: Tips for Fulfilled Life

By -
Image
• Don't complicate life. We won't be here forever. Once this day is over, it's gone forever. Your time is too valuable to waste on nonsense. • No matter what knocks you down in life, get up and keep going. NEVER GIVE UP. Great blessings come as a result of great perseverance. • Talking about our problems is our greatest addiction. Break the habit. Talk about your joys. • Good things come to those who believe, better things come to those who are patient, and the best things come to those who don't give up. • Do not pray for an easy life; pray for the strength to endure a difficult one. • Disappointments were not meant to destroy you. They were meant to strengthen you and give you fortitude to accomplish your God-given destiny. • We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come as a result of getting something we don't have, but by appreciating what we do have. • Your child will follow your example, not your advice. • One day, you'll be just a memory for ...

When Are You Getting Married?

By -
Image
I was with my parents over the weekend. It was a great time with them. Our conversations especially when I am about leaving them after a visit will end with a prayer. But this time a good part of the conversation centered on marriage and so was about 86% of the prayer on getting married from the right family and settling down well....hmmm. You see, we all have this almighty question to answer now and then. In fact, life in Nigeria is ideally viewed in a particular cycle – Birth - Go to School - Graduate from University - National Youth Service - Work or Business - Marriage and Children, and then Work, Work, Business, Business - Raise Children - Work, Work, Business, Business - Death. I hope you can relate with that cycle. When you are done, your children obviously will continue with the next cycle starting from where you started. Sometimes the Question, "when are you getting Married?" put lots of people under pressure. The second pressure after this is the pressure to ...

Do Not Overcome Evil with Evil

By -
Image
How we treat people can have a great impact on the degree of blessings and favor of God we are experiencing in our lives. Are you good to people? Are you kind and considerate? Do you speak and act with love in your heart and regard other people as valuable and special? Listen, you can’t be rude and inconsiderate and expect to live in victory. Evil is never overcomed by more evil. No! We overcome evil with good. I know it’s not easy. But with God’s grace, when someone hurts you, the only way you can overcome it, is by showing mercy, forgiving them, and doing what is right. Keep taking the high road, being kind and courteous. Keep walking in love and having a good attitude. God sees what you’re doing, and He will make sure your good actions and attitude will overcome that evil. You will come out far ahead of where you would have been, had you fought fire with fire. Pause and reflect on how you can show kindness and mercy to one who had been unkind and unmercifully to you so that you ...

I am a member of "The Let's Talk About Series" community. I'll be sharing notes from Tobi Afolabi (TASpeaks) on Comportment and Etiquette, a lesson delivered this year, in the month of February. Let's Talk About Series is a personal and career development discussion platform that discuss diverse topics to help boost people's productivity and build personal confidence. They are passionate about self discovery, and believe the strife for personal development helps in adding value to one's life; creating opportunities and setting priorities for the areas that make them most effective. You can check out the community on Facebook. ----- Tobi Afolabi: If I were to ask what we love most about Pastor E. A. Adeboye, I am likely to get comments such as he is humble, generous, polite, well dressed, cultured... If I ask same for Buhari, Dangote, Steve Harris, Jimi Tewe and many more, I am equally likely to get a similar feedback. Doesn't it amaze you that we...

Money Management 101

By -
Image
This is what I taught my employees today (on the day this was written). As it's my usual practice (because I don't want them to be employees forever), I taught my employees something very important as regard wealth creation today. I told them about a man who laughed at me because I'm using small phones. I told one of them – look at the phone I'm using, (talking about my personal phone). Since you've been here with me, did you ever see me with any expensive clothes or shoes? The reason is because I am an entrepreneur (at the wealth creation stage). When you see someone who is spending lavishly, I taught them; be sure he doesn't make money. People who steal or inherit money blow it anyhow.The next to them are people who work for money (the employees). This is unfortunate (but very true). Most employees work extremely hard for money and lavishly spend those hard earned papers to make entrepreneurs richer. They are poor but want to look rich, latest phones, nic...
