Stop living by the calendar and Start living by Purpose

By -

Stop making new year resolutions. Start becoming self aware instead. Embrace who you are and create greatness out of it. Stop living by the calendar and start living by purpose.

Stop comparing yourself to someone else. Such exercise only demeans the fundamental fabric that makes you a special human.

Stop second guessing your capabilities. You are scared of taking that bold step because you think that your friends and family members will laugh at you with scornful jocularity. That is total crap. Stop making excuses because no one fucking cares. You're not DOING because you are so full of shit.

Stop evaluating your ideals from the opinions of others towards you because people's perspectives about you can never go beyond the perimeter and boundaries of their own imagination.

Be responsible!
Hold yourself accountable!
Own yourself and be decisive. Be deliberate! Be fucking intentional about life.
Demystify thoughts like "What if I fail?"
start cultivating thoughts like "What if I succeed?"
Choose to rather take a huge bite and choke on the pie of greatness than nibble around the paradise of perpetual mediocrity.

Let there be light!

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

By -
Image
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...

Why Salt kills earthworms?

By -
Image
A lot of us have become used to using salt to kill earthworms when we encounter any in our houses. I've thought about this for a while now, but I recently decided to check it up and I'll share what I learnt about the science. Before that, I'll share some points about earthworms: - They are in the lumbricus genus, there are various species of earthworms, but the common earthworm's scientific name is lumbricus terrestris - Their digestive system runs through the length of their skin - Earthworms respire through their skin - They are hermaphrodites (each one carries both male and female sex organs) - They lack either an internal skeleton or exoskeleton , but maintain their structure with fluid-filled coelom chambers that function as a hydrostatic skeleton. Okay, let's talk about salt and earthworms: Earthworms respire and secrete mucus through their skins. Salt (sodium chloride) has the ability of absorbing moisture (desiccant). When a large quantity of salt i...

You will find money in these three places

By -
Image
Money is hiding in things people don't want. Over the weekend, I listened to the speech of a top network marketing guru in South Africa and these are the points he mentioned about money and where you can get it. He said that one will only find money in these three places: The first place where one will find money is with people. All businesses need people to make money. Doctors need people to make money and they call those people patients. Checkers and Woolworths needs people to make money and they call them customers. Mortuaries need dead people to make money. If one runs away from people, one is running away from wealth. If one says that he/she is shy and can't talk to people, then it means poverty will be one's best friend. The second place one can find money is to find solutions to people's problems. Most people run away from problems because they don't want to find solutions to the problems. That's why we don't last in things that we start because i...

When You drop the Wrong one, the Right one will come

By -
Image
I think I need to have an office in my kitchen because it seems to me like almost all my inspirations stem from there. ----- One day, Dave entered the kitchen and took an uncooked potato in his hands, crying to be allowed to eat it. I said to him, "No drop that. That's not your food." He refused. He turned his back on me and was bent on eating the uncooked potato. Unknown to him, I had already served his food and was only waiting for him to drop what he occupied his hands with so that I can give the food to him. But David refused to drop the uncooked potato. Then, I said to him, "See your food, David. Drop that one." When he heard that, he turned to look at me and saw the food in my hands. Immediately he saw the food, he dropped the uncooked potato and took his food with his two hands. I smiled. ----- What is that thing God's been trying to get you to put down so that He can give you what is right for you? For how long will you turn your back a...

Loyalty to the Past

By -
Image
"The past is a nice place to visit but never a great place to stay". We all are where we are today because of our past decisions and actions. Our present is a factual reflection of how great our past was. We all have past, filled with different experience. Our past is always on the increase while our future on decrease. We all dream of a greater and better future but we are still loyal to our past. We can't create the future of our dream with the same attitude, perspective, relationships and decisions that created our today. What brought us here, wouldn't take us there. We need to let go the gory of the past. Take the lessons from it and move on. Ask yourself, Can I create the future I want with the same set of people I created today with? Loyalty to the past lies in our decision to continue living the way we've been living, doing things the way we've always done it, thinking the way we've always thought, reacting instead of acting and staying where we...

Treat your brand as an Investment, not a Cost

By -
Image
Let me iterate - "branding is the projection of your visions and the big picture in you. It is bringing to life, the dreams you have". How much does it cost to bring your vision to life? It boils down to how big, clear and crisp your inner pictures are. Branding is expensive only if you see it as expensive. I have seen people project their brands with less crisp graphics. I have seen people unintentionally creating the wrong narratives for their brands through branding that leaves lot to be desired. Electronic media is a game of perception, how you package yourself creates narratives in the mind of your target audience. When you consistently fail to create the right narratives, you eventually hurt your business. How much does it cost to get a crisp head shot? How much does it cost to hire the service of professionals? You don't have to break the bank give your customers the best experience. You don't have to commit too much to keep to your promises and deliver quali...

The Principles are Universal, but Our Pathways and Circumstances could differ

By -
Image
No matter how spiritual you are, I may not agree with you on all issues. You may have personal beliefs that resulted from your experiences over time, that doesn't make it God's Word or changes God's word. We live by faith and not by experience. There may be universal principles but different pathways and circumstances influenced by our levels of appreciation of God's word. Don't impose your experiences on people in the name of wisdom. True wisdom is God's word. Teach the word and allow people move at their pace taking baby steps until they master their own art of absolute dependence on God. My confessions are powerful, they may not be reasonable but I am what I believe. I have chosen not to bend them to suit experiences, I have chosen to make them all positive. You will only receive to the extent of your beliefs and persuasion. If God is a Toyota to you, he will remain a Toyota, but if God is a Lamborghini, he will remain same to you. Don't assume becaus...
