Work and happiness

Work and happiness are like mother and daughter; work brings forth happiness, but hard work brings great happiness!

According to Theodore Isaac Rubin, “Happiness does not come from doing easy work but from the afterglow of satisfaction that comes after the achievement of a difficult task that demanded our best”. What every difficult task awaits you comes along with a concentrated volume of happiness. Don’t run away from difficult tasks!

“Happiness is that state of consciousness which proceeds from the achievement of one’s values”, said Ayn Rand. William H. Sheldon confirmed it by saying “Happiness is essentially a state of going somewhere, wholeheartedly, one-directionally, without regret or reservation”. Pursue the dreams you have on paper. If hard work is the source of happiness, then we can conclude that the main job of procrastination is to delay that happiness and excuses kill it!

“Pleasure” is different from “happiness”. It has its own definition. Pleasure may or may not come from hard work; Pleasure may or may not come from sin; However, happiness is divine and comes from fulfillment!

It’s great to feel happy. Go, do what makes you feel happy. Do it hard and feel the hardest happiness!

Creeds for Aspiring Achievers- by Israelmore Ayivor

You have what you need in you!

The best university in the world is neither Oxford nor Harvard. The best university is "youniversity". You got the lecture halls of thoughts in you! You got the everything you need to graduate with first class accomplishments put in you!

You are not the person people think you are. People who think you "dining hall" are not aware that you are rather a "community" with many amenities! If you see yourself as other people see you, it means you are lost, you don't know yourself and you have closed down a world class university of diligence!

My friends, life is so serious that the if you are not aware of who you are, your "Youniversity" may be prestigious but unknown! If you don't know yourself, go explore the universe; think of what you can do best; keep learning new things; ask yourself mysterious questions; never give up on what you are doing; team up with intellectuals and get on board to discover a dream, a vision, and a reason for your life!

Enroll in your body soul and spirit and engage your time to do what you know best. Dedicate yourself to the work at hand and you will be rewarded by the fruits you will bear!

Go, discover yourself!

Raise the bar!

Inferiority complex means to see yourself lower than what you got to confront; Superiority complex on the other hand is to see yourself greater than them!

Superiority complex does not mean "pride" although it appears to be so in the eyes of those who want to see it so. When you feel a higher esteem over the obstacles you desire to surmount, you highly overcome them and can still count a reserved energy to spare!

People with inferiority intentions do not go after their dreams not because they can't go; but because their passion is not strong enough to turn the wheels of success...and there they go, becoming losers, defeated by their obstacles!

In every dream you pursue, you attract it's respective version of opposition. Going back will not solve any problem; Regrets will not change anything either; Superiority should be your priority!

You are powerful beyond measures! You are superior to your opposition! Its time to make a change in the world. Remember, that change begins with the powerful You!

God alone knows best!

I get confused when a young person dies and everyone goes like "he died an UNTIMELY death"! The question is "how many years have you given to him or her to know if his current age has not reach the one you gave out?" If you don't give a number of years to someone to live, how can you know whether he exhausted them or some are left before he died?

I begun to learn lessons in life and somewhere along the line at age 16 when I lost my Dad, I concluded these three keys at that sad and cold night when I couldn't sleep due to the sad news. I called them "The three keys of mystery". Later at age 22, I watched Dr. Myles Munroe in a video where he shared "five (5) keys to set man out of depression". It's awesome my three keys of mystery appeared among the five. These I share;

1. You cannot be responsible for somethings that happen on earth. You may attempt to act, God God alone will decide. Somethings are mysteries!

2. You can't control some things that are moving; give them way to pass else they crush you woefully with painful regrets!

3. You can't know and understand everything that happens on earth. You can't explain why they happen; only God can do that, so stay away!

These keys are still fresh in my mind and in times like these where a young energetic man like Komla Dumor should pass on! This principles set me at peace in times of sadness! The one who controls our existence is above. Anything that afflicts our emotions should be channeled through to our maker; he has the best answer I believe is answer regins irrespective of our opinions and experiences about life!

Our required action in times of hurt should never be "silence in times of prayer", but "passionate in prayer and silence in times of expectations"!

God alone knows the business plan he has. Let's not distracted God with our words in time of pain!

God, take your seat, we can't occupy it!

Persistence is the key!

The chance that you will become a master in something after the first attempt is neither here nor there. You don't get master's degree by attending school on the first day of your life! Time will tell, so you got to persist!

You got insist on your success, resist every obstacle and persist in times of difficulty and you will get there. Every tree in the forest has a story to tell. Some of them were burnt but they endured the fire and got revived; Some of them were cut, their barks injured, some people pick up their leaves to make medicines for their sicknesses, birds used their leaves to make their nests, etc. Upon all these, the tree is still tree!

The first attempt may fail, but it does not create room for excuses. It's said that people who give excuses for the reason not do something always formulate those excuses, waiting for the reason to surface to justify their excuses! Majority of excuses are deliberate attempts to keep success far away!

Never be impressed by calling attentions that tell you to give up! Insist, Resist and Persist to the end!

Make extra-large impacts!

The size and height of the tree determines how heavy the ground will shake when it falls. The cassava tree falls and not even the pests in the forest are aware. The baobab tree falls and the whole forest looks empty!

What makes the forest to appear empty when a mighty tree falls? Guess. It's the influence, the dominance, the exceptional and outstanding height that give the forest a name. Such is the life of human beings!

People who make great impact are well remembered due to the empty seats that remain after their death. It takes time to fill the empty seats that are left unoccupied by people who walked great in great footprints.

What are you doing today to make a great impact on earth after your demise? Think about it! You may or may not be a famous person to answer this question. How many hearts have you been able to inspire and impress by your sense of existence?

Live life so well that, even if you die, the empty seats behind you will tell the story that, "yea, this soul did what God sent him/her to do". Give life and hope into your family, village, community, country, continent and the world at large. You can do it!

I wish you all a fruitful life (a life that has fruits). I love you!
