Let’s go there, God


Live your life in the way that when God should come to earth to inspect the work He sent you to do, you can boldly hold His hands and say “let’s go there God”!!!. People who know they have chased other businesses aside what God sent them for will probably get panicked when God should arrive today. But the free citizens are those who are never detracted and they do the work accorded to them sincerely by the Lord. Martin Luther King Jnr exhorted: “If a man is called to be a street sweeper, he should sweep the street even as Michelangelo painted, or Beethoven composed music, or Shakespeare wrote poetry. He should sweep streets so well that all hosts of Heaven and earth will pause to say, here lived a great sweeper who did his job well”. What are you doing? How well are you doing it to admit God’s gladness?


Be about God’s business


The world is a maze of varieties of businesses. In Biblical scripture, Christ in Luke Chapter 2 verse 49 said it boldly with all commitment “I must be about my father’s business”. This scripture tells that there are other kinds of business out there in the universe. But what is “God’s business”? God’s business is simply the purpose He has for your life. And that can only be realized when He save you for genius success. Don’t get entangled by worldly businesses that will later end you in eternal condemnation. Be inspired to encounter the purpose of God and make and indelible impact on earth.


Pick yourself up and clean the dust


Don’t be depressed when you fall. Shake yourself of every dust on your body and keep on running again. That’s was exactly what Christ did for us. While we were yet dirty, He died and cleaned us of every dirty spot. (Rom. 8:5). When you feel worried by the emergency of a predicament, just look up to the cross. Out there, there is a re-claimer whose is greater than every circumstance! Get a hold of His garment and get yourself shaken off of your dusts and you can move on with life !!!


Live every single moment


Each and every stroke of the second hand of the clock tells that time is slipping away. Time lost can never be regained. Occupy every bit of your time towards the fulfillment of what God sent you for. Cary Grant put it this way: “My formula for life is quiet simple; I get up in the morning and go to bed at night. In between, I occupy myself as best as I can”. Yes the fact that you are still alive tells that you have not yet finished the tasks God send you for. Make profitable use of every opportunity God gave to you because by that you will receive your reward. Never let idleness work on your behalf. Remember time lost can never be reclaimed !

Factors to consider in Decision Making

1. Clearly define what the problem. If possible, write it down.
2. Be careful about things that look too simple. Look at all sides
3. Having done this, restate the problem.

5. Prepare for the worse case scenarios; Sometimes we are afraid of the problem or our ego gets into the situation.
6. Determine all possible solutions to the problem.
7. Consult with others.
8. Conduct a 360 analysis of all proposed solutions.
9. Make the call or decision
10. Assign responsibilities to people to solve the problem. Be part of the broad solution

12. Resource the people to succeed

What makes goals smartEST


We have often heard and read many books talked about the acronym SMART in goal setting which stands as S-Specific, M-Measurable, A-Achievable, R-Relevant, T-Time bound and forms a background frame into which every goal we set must fill.

However, what most of us don’t know is that goals can be Smarter comparatively and Smartest superlatively! A SMART goal unachieved remains SMART. A SMART goal established by achievements becomes the SMARTEST. What makes the Smart goal become the smartEST  is just to have it ESTablished.

To establish means to “set up”, “bring about”, “make to exist” or “to settle”. I guess you still have your goals remaining SMART. Why not take the courage now to transform them into becoming the SMARTEST? Avoid every negative attitudes that kill your goals. Work your goals out with commitment, constant improvement and focus and you will have what you once imagined becoming a real ESTablishment. By ESTablishing your goals, they become smartEST !!!


On which stage are you?


The following stages make the milestone of those who have done great things in life. 
  1. Stage one: I can’t do it
  2. Stage two: I won’t do it
  3. Stage three: I will try it
  4. Stage four: I have started it
  5. Stage five: I can do it
  6. Stage six: Look, I have done it well !!!
  • From which of the above stages have you started?
  • On which of them are you now?
  • Which of the stage will climate our overall output?
