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.

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.

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...

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.

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.

Proverbs 10:14 KJV "Wise men lay up knowledge:..." The word "lay up" means to store. Simply put,  it means to document. Many people do not understand the importance of storing information. It is good practise for Wise men to lay up knowledge. Why it is Important to Lay Up Knowledge A tour into the life of historical and contemporary successful men shows that these men have a library of books. A foremost example is Dr. Ben Carson. Ben's life was transformed as a result of his mother's firm decision to make him not only to consume the knowledge in books but to reflect by writing down weekly reports of those books read. His mother took this firm decision as a result of what she discovered in the apartment of a wise old man for whom she was an house cleaner - a library of books.

They take preparation as worry and as a result believe as life unfolds, it would figure out itself. Paradoxically, life is all about preparation. Successful people always prepare for whatever venture they embark on. One of America's foremost President, Abraham Lincoln, said, "If I had eight hours to chop down a tree,  I'd spend six hours sharpening my axe" Why Many Skip Preparation Many youngsters see preparation as time consuming and as no progress at all. Unlike Abraham Lincoln, We'd begin cutting down the tree right away. Sharpening the axe for six good hours might seem a waste of precious time. But the repercussion would be discouragement along the way; frustration and exhaustion few hours into cutting down the tree. What many call Preparation Many peop...
