The period when one is fired from a job can be a very difficult. It is not only a time you are out of a job but depending on the circumstance upon which you were fired, it can also mean getting another good one is nearly impossible. I am reading a book by one of the world's best-selling motivational and business authors, Harvey Mackay and its titled: We got fired! Here are some of his morals he shares with us, I find them very inspiring and I know will also do you good if it happens that you are going through this period. 1. The way to douse a firing is to use what you have learned for an even better hiring. 2. When the winds are right, "fire" yourself first. 3. Know thyself to get thyself hired. 4. Finding a job is a matter of direction and selection, not rejection and dejection. 5. Life isn't always sweet in the C-suit. Be prepared for a bumpy ride when you travel at high altitudes. 6. Build your skills portfolio long before...

Some how, some people get the idea that you can't be a good christian when you are a business man or woman! Some even go as far as believing that poverty is a first class ticket to heaven! When I read or hear this things, at times am just sad for them and begin to wonder how they came about this mindset, some of these people have been around longer than I am and most surely have read the bible more than I have, but the little I have read and come to understand does not say anything about God wanting us to be poor! Please understand that God does not take pleasure in your poverty, God is not happy when you are suffering, in your happiness lies Gods happiness! Jere 29:11(NIV) For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Here are six examples of our covenant fathers who were great business men, who were rich in gold and silver, cattle, sheeps and you name it, and they even lo...

WHEN YOU TAKE THINGS FOR GRANTED, THE THINGS YOU ARE GRANTED GET TAKEN!      How many of us really have sat down with our mums and just told them how much we appreciate them? Not telling them we love them because saying it most times doesn't really mean we meant it. I am talking about you sitting with your mum and you just begin to let her know how much you are glad she brought you into this world. Now I understand many of us may have issues with our mums, maybe she rejected you, maybe she wasn't there for you when you needed her, maybe she refused to support you for some reason or she even has a favorite that isn't you.  I understand these factors can be responsible for the complicated relationship some may have with their mums. But I would like you to understand that in the face of these seemingly difficult situations a mother's love for her child is unquantified!      A Mother Thinks about Her Children Day and Night, Even if they a...

It might sound funny to you or maybe perhaps you have experienced it before, you were having a bath and suddenly that great idea came! Different people with different means through which they get ideas, i strongly believe that great ideas come when we are well relaxed and focused on the task at hard. Personally, when i step into my bathing room, i just begin to see everything as they are supposed to be, I don't know why or how, maybe its because am more relaxed at that point or its how the water splashes on my body, i guess this why people go on vacation, ministers go to mountains just for a renewal of ideas. What is the point of this post? Please understand that the world we live in today is becoming highly competitive everyday, what you think you know today and will definitely work might not turn out to be so, in a worst case, somebody might already be working with that idea.   For the pursuit and success of purpose, it has become very important to re-eval...

This post is a continuation of the last one. Last time i spoke a little on how effective good or bad communication can be on our relationships, talking to each other helps avoid misunderstanding, this is why we have therapeutic sessions where all that is basically done is "Talking about it". Many walk out of those sessions wishing they had talked about it, so much troubles could have been avoided. So open up and talk about it! In conclusion of this topic, i would like to quickly point out to us one hindrance to how effective our communication can be. By now i am sure you know what i am taking about. I believe this is a very sensitive topic of discussion because i have heard many side of this. But the question really is, Are lies really necessary in holding a relationship together? Truth is, Communication becomes very difficult when trust is lost ! If I find out its all lies every time i chose to hear you out, then really listening to you explain again over an issue...

A GOOD LISTENER IS NOT ONLY POPULAR EVERYWHERE, BUT AFTER A WHILE HE KNOWS SOMETHING.       Communication is a vital  key in the success of every team work! When we don't properly communicate with each other, misunderstanding is bound to happen.     Its funny, cause the meaning of the word "Misunderstanding" actually is; a failure to understand something correctly. This is what we realize when we are calm after a serious argument, which of course most times is really of no use anymore because the harm has been done, we have said some words we wish we could take back, broken some valuables and now, we are just disappointed in ourselves. "Ah! I should have let him/her finish!"     But then again, I believe we are bound to misunderstand what ever is not properly explained to us even when we give the other person a chance to explain, so what do we do at that time?        This is the point we have got to be reall...

    It is what you put into the ground that comes back to you! No farmer plants corn and expects to reap coconut, I have heard some people say life will only give back to you what you first gave it.     It is important to note that nobody suddenly wakes up to greatness! Greatness and success comes from deliberate conscious acts!     Having a dream does not make you a success, taking necessary cause of action to make it a reality is what makes the difference. Daily we are faced with making choices and taking actions, these goes a long way to affect our dreams, so be wise in what are you are doing now, you just might reap what you are sowing today in the near future.  Make every decision keeping in mind how it affects your future, if by any reason you are suffering from the mistakes of the past, i see the mercies of God restoring you.    Don't allow the enemy hold you down by reminding you of your mistakes, Christ paid without res...

“We can complain because rose bushes have thorns, or rejoice because thorn bushes have roses.” ― +Abraham Lincoln “Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.” – Winston Churchill “Get going. Move forward. Aim High. Plan a takeoff. Don't just sit on the runway and hope someone will come along and push the airplane. It simply won't happen. Change your attitude and gain some altitude. Believe me, you'll love it up here.”                    ― Donald Trump  “Sometimes it takes a heartbreak to shake us awake & help us see we are worth so much more than we're settling for.”             ― Mandy Hale , The Single Woman: Life, Love, and a Dash of Sass “You are essentially who you create yourself to be and all that occurs in your life is the result of your own ma...

"I don't know why things are not going on well, maybe I am in the wrong line of business, Aww, its Monday again!"              Complain, complain, complain! its all that comes out of your mouth!  Dear, you will not get anywhere complaining about everything! I have never seen anyone complain their way to greatness! A wise man said; "Appreciation is application for more" At times, you need to take a good look around and just be grateful for what you have and who you are, what you don't know is that many are praying everyday to be in your position.      You might be asking how can that be? what could I possibly have that anybody would be praying for? yes, good questions, but maybe you should stroll down to a medical center and check, maybe you are there due to one thing or another, take a look at their morgue, you will be surprised, peradventure you have a job now you don't like, someone would kill for t...

      Sitting in a bus, traveling for an a appointment, I began to reflect on some statements I have head some people make over and over again, one of these statement being "I am just a passenger in this world" , meaning they are just passing by or something like that.       You see, when you are wrongly informed, your thinking and your talking will be wrong! it is so important for us to get the right information that will lead to right thinking and talking. Being a passenger in this world simply means you having no effect and impact on this world, this is what happens when you are traveling, you really don't most times if not all the time have no effect on the means of  transportation at all. You are just concerned with getting to your destination.       I sincerely hope you catch what i am trying to say, see, Christ didn't give up His life on earth just to make us passer by in this world, He didn't go through a...

        Many still don’t realize that Gods love for us is perfect and unconditional! Gods love for you is not based on how well behaved you are or how much you give to the less privileged! The bible records that God loved us while we were yet sinners, JN 3:16; For God so loved the world, that he gave… God didn’t send His son to die because we were so righteous, He did to redeem us from sin because He so loved us. He couldn’t watch us being destroyed!        Please understand that, it doesn’t matter the state of your condition right now, you may be having the feeling that, you have gone beyond Gods love, your sin has become so great that Gods love can’t reach you anymore, I have good news for you, Gods love for you can not be stopped not even by your deeds. 1John 4:16 records that God is love! He is the very essence of Love!       Right now, you might be asking, why don’t I feel ...

     Hear this! Because your greatness is settled and the devil is well aware of it, he(satan) will keep on fighting you! You can’t be jealous of anyone that’s has nothing to offer!      Satan knows you have a lot to offer, so he will try everything possible to distract you! Gods blessing remains permanent on those that walks closely with Him. The bible records that God is holy and they that serve Him must be holy!      It is important to note that righteousness is a gift (Rom. 5:17) but, holiness is not! Holiness is submitting yourself totally to the will of God, consciously living a life that pleases Him daily! In our world today, living a consecrated life for God seem to be almost impossible, why? because the devil has waged a war against holiness! 1Cori 2:12; Records that, there is a Spirit of the world! This spirit is to entice the children of God from living a holy life. This spirit works in 3 significant ...

Please understand that, it doesn’t matter how skillful you are, how charismatic you are, if people don’t buy what you are selling, there is no promotion for you! The Bible clearly states that, if we agree upon anything, it shall be done! There is POWER, SPEED and QUALITY in Agreement! Unfortunately, many have missed out in the opportunity of help because of their attitude! You really don’t gain any Rep. by working around moody all day! Even your helpers becomes afraid to approach you! Imagine a sales agent knocking on your door in the morning with a moody face and attitude, it doesn’t matter what he sells, you will probably not buy! Is it because he sells rubbish? No! He wasn’t with the right attitude! You can’t take people out of the fulfillment of your destiny! So being in the right attitude each day you go out is a necessity to fulfill destiny! There is no doubt that there might be a hand of the enemy in the reason why people are getting out of your life all the ...
