5 Important Principles you must Live by to become better in 2023

Let’s just jump right into it. 1. Be careful what you say to yourself. As 2023 unfolds, it is important for you to be careful of what conversation takes place within your head and in your mind. What you say to your self has more impact on you than you can imagine. What limiting beliefs held you back in the previous year? Do you still carry those same beliefs into the new year? You need to watch it and deliberately stop that conversation roaming in your mind. 2. Never ever compare yourself with anyone. Thanks to social media, it helps you see how well you compare with others. Whichever way you look at it, comparing yourself with others will have a negative effect on your both emotionally and psychologically. You need to clear your mind and clear your compass. You need to have a clear clean standard for your life, and that’s definitely not social media. Let your daily goal in the new year be to become better than you were yesterday. Grow steadily and systematically. Draw inspiration from

The Key to Learning Fast - The Only Secret You Need to Know

Learning is an important aspect of life. It is a non-negotiable for anyone who wants to stay on top in their personal life and career. We all have the capacity to learn and improve, but many are yet to unlock the potential to learning well, as well as fast.  My Learning Experience Just last week, I was asked to prepare an Excel sheet to size some cables for some engineering project. After preparing the Excel sheet, the senior engineers were wowed! This was beyond their expectation! How did I prepare something that excellent, that could automatically calculate the size and give dynamic recommendation for the selection of any cable!  Was it something amazing to them? Yes. Was it anything special to me? Definitely not.  Two months prior, I new next to nothing on Excel. I didn't even know how to use the SUM function. During an intensive training programme, an external facilitator had trained us on Basics, Intermediate and Advanced Excel. This training was within a space of one week. It

What Kind of Life Are You Living: Significant or Insignificant?

Life is all about choices. You live out what you choose - whether consciously or unconsciously . Right now, you are either living a life that is significant in your community or you're kind of lost in the crowd. If you are unsure of where you belong, don't worry, we are here for you. Choosing to live a significant life begins with a sombre reflection and realization. It also goes along with the willingness to pay a price. What Does it Mean to Live a Significant Life? Living a significant life is living a life of impact. A life that touches someone, meets the need of others; an indispensable life. You could be popular and still be miserable. You could have a large number of friends on social media and still be lonely. A significant life is an active life; a well that many can draw from. Pouring out yourself in this regard is very important. Anything significant must be useful, resourceful, indispensable. If it doesn't meet a need, then we can dispose it. When you live fo

Why You Should Not Throw Your Life Away

Life is precious. We only live life once. The way we spend our lives is dependent on how much we value life. At times, we do not recognize or appreciate what we have until we lose it. Experiences in life are rare. Treasure them and make the most of every waking moment of yours. We will not always live here forever, therefore, make every moment of your life count. Three Reasons You Should Not Throw Your Life Away 1. We need to always remind ourselves that there is just one of us existing now in the universe. You are a unique individual with a unique mindset having unique abilities. You are you and there is none other. If you forget this, you will throw you life away. Your family needs you. Your parents, siblings or relatives are probably going through challenges only you can provide solution to. If you close your eyes to their needs, you are wasting your life and would feel incomplete. 2. Your community needs you. No one cares about you until they know how much you care about them. I

The Secret to Success: Focus

What success may mean to one may be different from what success may mean to someone else. For an ex- student, success may mean gaining admission into a tertiary institution, while for a college student, it may mean getting a grade point sufficient enough to earn a first class or maintain a currently high CGPA. For a parent, it may mean giving her Children sound scriptural training in the way of the Lord. Success may also mean living a balanced Christian life; living a fulfilled stress - free life, or acquiring a skill for an independent financially self sufficient future life. Whatever the definition you give to success, Success is simply accomplishing your set goals and objectives. As wonderful and as necessary it is to succeed in life, it is important to note that there are innumerable distractions to success.  An Eagle with a keen vision There are a lot of reasons why people don't succeed. The reason is they are often distracted by ephemeral things. This shifts their

Climbing Your Way Onto the Top

The book of Proverbs provide immense knowledge about life and answers many life practical questions. Here in this blog and this article, you'll learn the applicability of the book of prove​rbs to various life situations and circumstances. Keep on learning, keep on improving and keep on growing. Being at the top is all about climbing to the top, and as long as you keep climbing, you're already there - at the top! Here is the well of wisdom we want to draw out from: Proverbs 18:1-2 KJV Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom. [2] A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself. Desire is what sets the ball rolling. Desire is what puts the individual on the move. Desire is passion and decision put together. Life happens to everyone and majority of what happens to us in life tend to water down or kill our passion for life. Only desire can resurrect that passion - an active, lively desire.
