What's riskier?
Staying in a job you're not growing in, or quitting your job and starting all over?
James Altucher asked one of the most brilliant questions: "How many people can make a major decision that will ruin your life?"
If all it takes is one person to say "You're fired" or "Our entire department is getting laid off" or "Amazon just bought our competitor, we're screwed," then who's at risk more?
The person who didn't take any risks with their career and was relying on permission from other people to learn new skills and move up the corporate ladder?
Or the person that said to themselves, "I've seen this story before. It doesn't end well. Why don't I pack my bags, get my life together, try some new things and see what sticks."
It's impossible to live life without risk. If you're avoiding it, you're asking for a miserable, unfulfilled life.
"It is in the presence of danger that we are gifted with the strong incentive for action, dedication and surpassing oneself" ~ Anne Dufourmantelle
(To the people who have a spouse, children, mortgage, etc - Risk is not saying YOLO and missing your child's tuition payments. Risk is understanding that the best way to take care of your family is to make sure you're prepared when that 1 person makes a decision to ruin your life.

As The 7th Month Of 2017 Ends
Hurray!!!!
The last day of July 2017
is finally here, though it did not take long to come but I am quite happy that
it has come.
On the 30th of June, we
prayed that the Good Lord should grant us His grace to enter the new month in
peace and happiness and also see us through it, not only did He grant our first
wish but He has also brought us to the last day of the month.
And He is not going to
rest until He takes us to the next new month which is the month of August
because He is not noted to leave any job half completed or unfinished.
Whatever He starts, He
will not only finish but also make it perfect.
It's Monday and it is the
last day of July 2017, are there any programs you had planned to execute but
which did not see the light of the day in the outgoing month, don't worry, pray
to God for grace because tomorrow will not only be a new day, it will also be
the commencement of a new month and as you know nothing is fixed, anything can
happen.
Welcome to this new day
and may you experience the peace and joy that the world ordinarily cannot give.
Selah!

God Is Still On The Throne
Are you on the threshold
of despair right now because your expectations are yet to be met?
Have all your mates left you behind and you are frustrated enough to ask "Where is God?"
Are you passing through experiences that make you think that there is no more hope?
Listen my good friend
Have all your mates left you behind and you are frustrated enough to ask "Where is God?"
Are you passing through experiences that make you think that there is no more hope?
Listen my good friend
I have a message for you
this morning
No matter how long the
darkness lasts, it must give way to the light
No matter how long the
night lasts, the day must come
No matter how long the
winter lasts, summer shall come
And so no matter how long
your wilderness journey has lasted, the promised land is about rising out of
the depths
Watch out for it, it won't
be long now
We are all on a journey
We don't all have the same
path
but in our ignorance we
compare ourselves with others
no two persons have the
same route in this life journey
not even identical twins
My Bible tells me that in
this life, there are seasons and times
When your season comes,
you shall blossom
When your time is rife, no power on earth can stop
you from manifesting
Don't rush yourself out of
your set time
Wait for your own time
Wait for your own season
God is still on the
Sapphire Throne
And He still has the final
say in all matters that concern His very own creations
Blessed be His Holy Name
And may you be blessed
today and always
I remain your friend

You Are The CEO Of Your Own Life
Do you know that we all
have just ONE LIFE to live?
Do you know that when a
man is dead, his own Christ has come?
Do you know that all our
struggles to be anything are only here on earth and that though no one has come
back from the dead to let us know how their own world is but the Scriptures
make us understand that the dead have no emotions, no memories and nothing
alive again in them
Knowing all these
therefore, what are we supposed to be doing with the daily opportunity we have
to still be on this side of eternity?
Picture your life as a
Corporate entity, do you know that you are the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of
your life?
When God created you, He
gave you the Power of Choice, so instead of living your life by chance, you can
really live it by choice!!
As the CEO of Your life,
it is your responsibility to make it a success with numerous dividends on all
fronts
Take control of your life
today and be the best you can be while you still have the opportunity

Act Out Your Wish
How long have you wished
that things were not the same as they are right now?
How long have you dreamt
of being the toast of the world starting from those around you?
How long have you been day
dreaming of living in that 10 bedroom duplex with all the pleasures of life
en-suite?
How long will you continue to wish that things happen?
I tell you today, that until you ACT OUT YOUR WISH, it will NEVER come to be.
How long will you continue to wish that things happen?
I tell you today, that until you ACT OUT YOUR WISH, it will NEVER come to be.
That's not a curse, just a
statement of fact
If you are desirous of
living in a Mansion, then go out there and make the money and build your own mansion.
What is that wish of
yours?
Put action behind it and see it come to pass
Put action behind it and see it come to pass
Remember to thank me later
