THERE IS ALWAYS SOMEONE BETTER THAN YOU... BUT NONE LIKE YOU*

_There will always be someone who knows more than you, who understands things faster and is better at academics_

_There will always be someone who is wealthier than you, who gets what he wants, earns more, and probably spends more_

_There will always be someone more beautiful/ handsome, who attracts compliments_

_*There will always be someone better than you .. but there can never be someone exactly like you, and that’s the part we don’t notice – because we are too busy trying to be like others*_

▪ You forget that even though God  raised some people over you, God has also raised *you* over others in your own way. 

▪ *But you don’t see that you have the most beautiful smile, or that you come from a loving home.* 

▪ *You don’t see that even though you’re not rich, you’ve managed to get that thing you’ve always wanted*

▪ *You may see yourself as ‘unattractive’, but you’re married to someone who would deny that with a passion*

 *You may deem yourself a failure because of a grade, but you’re succeeding in life itself*

_God will gift people with different things, God will raise them but there will always be someone higher in that rank_

_Thus we encircle the world, each of us intertwined above and below others_

 *but all of us are imperfect, because above us is the Most Perfect..... God.*

Self development Nuggets

*1. Make friends with successful people and occasionally buy them gifts and surprise them with lunch because successful people always give and hardly get, so when you give them, they value the gift a lot*.

*2. Get a mentor and follow his instructions and respect the relationship. Never beg your mentor for money or disrespect his or her privacy.*

*3. Make new positive friends as often as possible and ensure you keep the communication line open. Create a network of friends and not just connections.*

*5. Show kindness to everyone. Some small boys today will be big boys tomorrow. The biggest dog in the neighbourhood was once a puppy. Keep the information/secret to yourself.*

*11.Stay away from television as much as possible. You can watch educational channels. Men with big TV sit in front of them to watch men with big libraries.*

7 WAYS TO BE TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF

 

There are things we must carry and handle with extra- carefulness because these things are fragile and once broken, it is not easy to put back together and once some of these things get broken, they can lead to huge damage and destiny wastage.

 

1. Your Name:

 

Your name is very important and fragile. Some names stink in the ears of people simply because, those who bear those names spoilt the name. The way to handle your name with care is to be careful of your doings. Your actions can rubbish your name. A good name can open doors for you & your children and generations after you.

Carry your name with carefulness. It is a huge asset.

 

2: Your heart:

 

Many hearts are broken, shattered, wounded, and bitter today. One of the factors responsible for this is because many of these hearts' owners were careless with their hearts. You can guard your heart against being broken and bitter. Runaway from people, and things that are bent on breaking your heart. Carry your heart like a crate of eggs. You need a whole heart before you can be said to be fully whole!

 

3: Your purpose:

 

Your purpose is your destiny. If you don't handle it with the utmost care, it can slip off your hands, gaze, and get broken. So many things can come like pressure on this crate of an egg of purpose. Discouragement, lack of funds, anxieties, etc. These are things that may want to come like pressure on your purpose to break it. Don't allow them! Carry it with care. Carry your purpose away from people and things that may want to put pressure on it and break it.

 

4:  Your health:

 

You have only this body as a vehicle that will carry you through your journey of destiny in this life. Handle your health with care. No matter how big your vision is, once you are dead, nobody can run the vision like you! Fight for your health. Avoid things that can destroy your health. Wealth is useless when your health becomes useless. Don't kill yourself before your time. Do your best to stay alive. WE STILL NEED YOU HERE ON EARTH. Don't use your FORK, KNIFE, GLASS, and your SPOON to dig your grave. Watch what you EAT and DRINK. Don't eat anything because it is edible and don't drink anything because it is appetizing. Always pray for divine immunization against sickness and diseases.

 

5: Your Marriage:

 

 SO MANY PEOPLE HANDLE THEIR MARRIAGE LIKE A CARTON OF INDOMIE NODDLE.

Your marriage is fragile. Handle it like a crate of an egg. It must not break! A broken marriage is not easily put back together, because, when a marriage breaks, many things get broken with it. Remember, it takes two to tango. Husband and wife must always carry their marriage like an egg. It must not break!

 

6: Your words:

 

Your worth is attached to your words. Be careful with words. Once broken, you can't gather them up again. Many people are careless with their words. They speak violently and carelessly. They make empty promises and break them. Some say things they later wish they never said. Guard your words. Be careful with your diction.

 

7: Your eternity:

 

Those who are running up and down to fulfill destiny here on Earth without thinking of their eternity do not belong here! The matter of eternity is not something you should handle with levity. Think about where you will spend eternity, You will die one day. I will also die one day. All that we are and have in this world are vanity upon vanity.

 

Take the matter of your end very  seriously. Stop living carelessly as if you have an extra life. Don't live for the pleasure of this world. Live to Spread positives.

YOU ARE WHAT YOU THINK!

 

WHY DO YOU CARE SO MUCH ABOUT WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK? 

 

 That will only cause you to reduce yourself to please others.

 

You need to decide what’s meaningful to YOU. Your journey does not have to look like everyone else’s. Follow your unique convictions and purposes and let go of the fact that some people may not agree or understand.

 

You only have one life and it’s yours. Make it meaningful and make it count, which may likely require you to not follow the crowd. Truth is, you were called to be a leader anyway.

 

If you think you are important, that's what you are. If you think you are inferior, that's what you are. If you think you are capable, then you can do it. 

 

If you think you deserve it, nothing can stop you from getting it. And if you believe in yourself, you can do great things!

 

You see, what people think of you shouldn't be your headache; it's their problem; not yours. You know why? Because what people think of you cannot make or unmake you! 

 

The only thing that has the power to make or unmake you is what you think of yourself. For what you think about, you bring about!

 

MAKE UP YOUR MIND THAT YOU ARE HERE ON EARTH SURFACE TO HAVE YOUR IMPACT ON YOUR GENERATION. 

 

You become what you think about yourself. Think goodness, think greatness, think success! Compete with your self. You must be better than whom you're yesterday. 

 

Live the life you love. Work daily to outshine yourself. You must fulfill God's purpose for your creation. Never strive to outshine anybody. Be your competitor. 

 

Your blessings are always bigger than your disappointments. At times, the desire for more or someone better makes us lose what we already have in our lives.

 

When you lose materialistic things in life, you can still rebuild but if you lose the true people and their love, that’s when you become empty. Some people don’t value their loved ones and often find faults in them. They criticize them for getting all the little things their partners are doing to make their life more beautiful. They end up losing them, all they are left with is an empty life.

 

Value what you have and those you have in your life. Learn to be content, accept your loved ones, and appreciate your blessings.

 

Eagles don't struggle to fly. Struggling is the father of frustration. You must make sure you elevate your standard of quality. Make a higher demand for yourself. Raise your standard. 

Be passionate about your passion. Your passion matters. When you desperately want something and put your best efforts and remain persistent, results are bound to come.  

 

Go get it! Don't copy anyone. Be your original! Greatness is inside of you, manifest it.

 

Remember your word is your bond!

 

Never promise what you can’t deliver.

 

Always keep your word and only then will you be able to create a brand; a product of value.

 

Your name is the value you have so keep it solid and learn to earn the trust of others.

 

HOW ARE YOU LIVING YOUR LIFE?

 

LARRY  OR HARRY

Larry and Harry, two homeless men were given a chance to travel to a third world country on an all-expenses-paid trip.

They were told to carry nothing and return with nothing...

They were to make sure they spend all that was given to them.

Provision had been made for their expenses and welfare which they would get upon arrival at their destination.

The only caveat was that neither of them knew when they would be asked to return home.

As they arrived, they were both given a huge sum of money and a credit card with no limits but reminded to spend it all before returning to their home country.

At this, they became instantly wealthy by local standards.

Harry thought to himself. "Wow! This is my opportunity to live like a king for I don't know how long this would last".

So he went and rented a Ferrari and rented the best room in the best hotel in town.

He went to the best stylist, shaved, and transformed his looks.  He had parties every day. Everyone in the city thought the cars and the wealth were his and they loved and respected him for it.

But...

At the back of his mind, Harry knew he would go back home someday and leave all of it behind but he didn't want to think about it.

Right now he was living in the moment and enjoying himself to the fullest...

Larry, on the other hand, rented a small Honda to get him around town and stayed in a modest inn.

 He thought to himself. "This money will not last and I don't know when I am going back so I have to do something tangible with it."

 He decided to use it to change some people's lives while there was still time.

So he got busy, went out on the streets, and started making a difference.

 He didn't just give away money, rather he tried to help people be self-sufficient.

He paid off all the school fees of some promising young ones to enable them to get an education and take care of themselves and their families.

He found some responsible adults and funded them in a business that guaranteed they would be able to take care of their family and create employment.

He devised a means of helping some of the homeless people get off the street and getting them into a trade for he thought "I wish someone would do this for me when I get back".

In short, while Larry was there, he was busy changing lives...

Then after just two months, they were suddenly notified that it was time to go back.

They hadn't even finished spending all the money but still had to leave it all.

They both said their goodbyes and headed for the airport.

At the airport, they were given their original clothes to put back on before boarding the plane back to their country...

Harry reminisced on the good times he had but wasn't too happy that he was going back to his old life.

 How would he readjust to being homeless?

Larry on the other hand felt good. He came with nothing and is leaving with nothing, but he at least helped others with a chance at life and that alone meant the world to him.

Readjusting to being a homeless person wouldn't be a problem because he never lived like the wealth was his anyway and always had it at the back of his mind that he would leave it all someday.

But... Little did they know that each moment they spent on vacation was being secretly recorded and they would be rewarded accordingly.

Now, which one do you think would be cast back out to the slums as a homeless person, and which one would be entrusted with large sums of wealth and position of authority?

The same goes for our lives here on earth.

We are sent here on a mission and will return empty-handed except for the recordings of our dealings here on earth.

 Yet, many of us walk around thinking that the wealth we have is ours to keep forever.

We look at ourselves in the mirror and think that what we see will always be there, forgetting that we are wearing a temporary cloth, a human body, that would be required of us before we leave this world.

Our sojourn on earth is but a short time while eternity lasts forever. What we invest in this trip determines how much control we get on situations next trip and in eternity.

So... HOW ARE YOU LIVING YOUR LIFE? ARE YOU LARRY OR HARRY ???

LIFE IS A QUESTION?

 

LIFE IS A QUESTION AND HOW DO WE LIVE IT IS OUR ANSWER

Love the life you live, and live the life you love. Live your life on purpose. Lighten up, always rejoice, laugh often. You only have to live your life once but if you do it well, once is quite okay for you.

 

Life does not allow us to go back and fix what we have done wrong in the past, but it does allow us to live each day better than our last.

 

Live your life well, make the best use of the hours, weeks, months, and years God is offering you to be here on earth. Envy no one, it will do you nothing good or desirable; it's an invitation to depression and blood pressure problems.

 

Never live by other people's opinions. Excuse yourself from living by dogma thereby living by other people's negative thinking about you. Use your initiative and allow your intuition to guide you, your inner mind won't deceive you.

 

Be courageous enough to make follow your heart!

 

In the end, have the understanding that it's not the years in your life that count, it is life in your years. Affect your generation positively.

 

Allow God to smile on you for being here. Your day is blessed.

 

I love that it's always the simpler things that are the most effective for getting us in gear to move towards our goals!

 

We tend to over-complicate the essentials like setting goals. Self-discipline type of things like waking up early to get a jump-start on the day.

 

Be awake to achieve success! Do not allow what you are passing through define you and thereby dim your future. Great things are still happening, dare to believe.

 

You are in charge, you are not ordinary. You are an extraordinary being! You are here on purpose. Give birth to that great idea that has been asking you to take a step on for a while.

 

Don, 't allow adversity to define you. Rise to achieve greatly. Adversity reveals the genius of a General. Turn that adversity around to stream of opportunities!

 

You will surely leap over walls! You shall soar like the Eagle. If your dream doesn't scare you, it's not big enough. Dream big dreams. Broaden your mindset.

 

Remember, this year is a leap year. You shall leap forward to achieve greatness. Commit your ways to god, do all that needs be done, then watch yourself.

 

 See you on Top!

 .

 

ONE ON TEAM WORK

 

A businessman gets stranded on a lonely highway in the US. The tires of his car get stuck badly in a mud pool.

 

He looks around for help and finally finds an old farmer. The businessman goes to him asking for help to get his car out of the mud.

 

Farmer gauges the situation, and agrees to help him and says, let us take the help of Warwick, an old bull at the farm.

 

The farmer ties the bull to the car and starts shouting, "FRED, PULL!... JACK, PULL!... JOHN, PULL... WARWICK, PULL".

 

As the farmer keeps shouting these words, the bull Warwick gets the car out of the pool of mud.

The businessman is relieved but doubts in his mind.

 

He thanks the farmer and asks him, "you said the bull’s name was Warwick, and he was alone, then who were Fred, Jack & John?"

 

The Farmer answered, "see, Warwick is old and is also blind. He does not know he is pulling this car alone. The moment he hears the other names, he thinks he is in a team, and he gives his best".

So is the case with all of us. The very thought that there are others in this same situation as us, gives us a great deal of comfort, hope, confidence and enthuses us to put our heart and soul into any task that we undertake.

 

It's not without reason that the very word TEAM is said to stand for "Together Everyone Achieves More".

 

 

CELEBRATE YOURSELF

Become more comfortable expressing your truth and your feelings about what matters to you.

Living is a risky business. There is always the possibility of hurt and rejection.   To experience love, you will risk being hurt.  To find success, you will risk failure.

Planning it safe is not an option if you want to experience the best that life has to offer. Starve your fear, and decide to a live beyond anxiety and doubt.

Make what you want greater than what you fear. You are  an unrepeatable miracle, all of us are born unique, but most of is die copies.

Regardless of  what is happening in your life, or how you feel right now, know that you are a miracle. You have miracle. Working power, the power to make your own dreams come true.

The world is waiting for you to live a bigger life, and to express the greatness that has been placed in you, do it now.

All I am asking is ; ‘be who you are’! Just that? Yes! Just that. Being who you are is enough; because you are extraordinary the way you are. Look at how you came to be.

Whatever your heart can conceive can be achieved. Think great thought.

 

 

 

 

 

TIPS ON HOW TO REMAIN POOR

Never wake up early. Keep stretching and turning in bed until you get too hungry to continue, If there are no bedding bugs. Why hurry to get up

.

 Never plan how to spend your money. Whatever you get money, start spending, it right away and when it’s finished, you try to count and recall how you spend it.

 Don’t think of saving until you have real big money. How can you save when you earn so little?
 Those telling you to save are not sympathetic to your burning needs.

 Don’t engage in activities usually reserved for the “uneducated.” How can you a graduate, engage in petty trade, network marketing, or home based production? That’s for people who never went to school!

 Don’t think of starting a business until an angel comes from heaven and gives you capital, how do they expect you to invest before you get millions? Even though more than of the businesses in your town was started with little capital; you as a smart person can only start with millions.

 Complain about everything expect your own attitude and laziness. Blame the system, the government and the banks that refused to lend your money. They are all bad and do not want you to get rich.

 Spend more than you earn. To achieve this, buy consumer products on credit and keep borrowing from friends and employers.

 Complete in dressing. Make sure you’re wearing the latest clothes. Intimidate the congregation with your trends fashion every day. Whenever your neighbor buys a new phone, you get one that is more expensive.

 Get yourself a nice second hand car that costs more than three times your yearly salary.

 Give your children everything they ask for since you’re such a loving parent. They should not struggle for anything because you do not want them to suffer that way, they will grow up lazy and hence poor enough to ensure they can’t help you at a old age.

 Devote your time, energy and resources to watching football. Keep up with all matches, fixtures, and transfers. Ensure you adequately argue your points among friends for hours after each game. After all, one day Messi and Ronald will remember you and send you some percentage of their income.

 Stay on Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp and Instagram all day to post, comment or watch videos. Engage in discussions that add no value to your life just to be seen that you are current and up-to-date.

KEEP YOUR THOUGHT POSITIVE

Think positive, think possibility. Think success, think greatness. Think life ,think love. Think growth, think maturity. Think excellence,think rewards. Think planting, think reaping.

Think…..! you’ve come so far and all that will be for noting if you get discouraged by how for you still have to go. Trust in yourself and your ability to bridge that distance!

The key to success is unyielding determination / not talent, smart. Go get what yours.

Don’t look for easy wins and expect to come out stronger on the other side. You have to first rip the muscle before you can grow it.

Think well to live well. The major capital needful for you to excel in life is your mind. Think possibilities!

Keep your thought positive and see possibilities, you are who you think you are. Think big.

Be determined and remain focused that you will achieve greatly, whatever! You need to be strong and courageous to achieve greatly.

Think of your past success or record of break through, there must have been some efforts of determination and perseverance displayed.

Pay the price now to have the prize in the nearest future. The constant and determined effort that breaks down all resistance.

Always believe in yourself. A hidden secret of your success is accepting where you are in life and making the most out it everyday.

Stay focused on your life journey and leave your foot prints behind. You’re the biggest project you’ll ever work on this earth, commit yourself to self development.

Beat your own record day to day, complete with yourself and you.

 

TRUE RELATIONSHIP

                HOW MANY ARE REALLY ARE IN A TRUE RELATIONSHIP IN A POSITIVE SENSE

I know most of you will ask what is true relationship. For every true relationship the most important things that you have to understand is that it will keep changing with time and changing , Most people hold on to these relationship so strong that they want same relationship forever and that is when the truth of relationship itself gets lost.

True relationship is when you understand the truth of a certain relationship and once that is understand only then you can tap it with love.

I know I am talking a complicated subject and can’t explain the whole thing in an article and could lead to a book but I will give you few example which will give you an idea what I trying to say .

·         THERE ARE TWO MAIN POINTS YOU HAVE UNDERSTOOD HERE

 

1.      Most people come into a relationship to fill gaps in their life that is not true at all. For example, a girl didn’t get enough care from her father so she goes outside and allows a boy into her life to fill that care. A boy doesn’t get attention from his friends so he get’s a girl who gives him all that attention and your  tend assume that it is love, but is it really true love or gap filling?

 

2.      other side of this same concept, Father is always  strict with their children but then children begin to hate them because as they grow then want a someone to guide them and not someone to discipline them! Mother keep loving their children the same way when they are babies even after they grow. Here the same love begins to move towards negativity with time because they don’t want the extra love when  they are were babies and want some freedom. Don’t you think again the truth is lost here???

 

This has to be understood and you have to change accordingly only then you move to a true relationship which leads to love.

 

People change with time then how do you expect the relationship to same forever best part, even you also change with time.

 

         THINK ABOUT IT
