Are Sure You Are Ready?

Are You Sure You Are Ready? 
Two people were given the opportunity to visit a very wealthy and powerful individual to discuss their futures.
One of them sat down, thought about and wrote down his goals and plans. Then he set time limits and put up key performance indicators for each of his goals. With this preparation, he went to meet the rich man.
The other one, dressed up in his best clothes, went to have a haircut and bought new shoes. He also went to see the rich man with the clear intention of shouting, crying, wailing, rolling around on the floor and screaming his head off in order to get help from this wealthy and powerful man.
In your opinion, who will most likely benefit from this meeting?
Dear young man or woman, 31st night will once again become an exercise in futility if you go and do all the acrobatics and shouting without a clear vision or plans for the coming year.
 Please do yourself and everyone else a favor. Sit down. Write down some goals.
Set some targets and then go and pray about them. Don't keep doing the same thing and expecting  different results. It won't work ooooo. Yoooo.
Whether it a Cross Over, Jump Over, Climb Over, Leap Over, Fly Over, Parachute Over, Crawl Over or even Somersault Over, if you don't set some goals, you will drift.
See you in church.

Golden Seeds of Life: Guard your space


The most critical skill a vision carrier must master is the ability to navigate the quagmire of hypocrisy, discouragement and self seeking selfishness disguised under the canopy of "friendship" and "concern".  She also needs the alertness to steer clear of the sand dunes of dream killing and mediocre detractors whose complete mentality is to bring others down to their limit; the barest floor. A vision carrier must be as gentle as a dove, but as cunning as a serpent in order to carry their dream to full term. I will say this again and again. You have to be extremely careful about the people you allow into your innermost circle. The ones you allow to have an influence on you, your goals and your plans. The ones you tell your dreams to. Some are only there and appear to support you as long as you don't try anything big or glorious. Try anything that intimidates their mediocre mentality and they will discourage you! Stay away from fair weather friends. Guard your sanity and your destiny. Instead, look for dream builders and vision helpers. Look for path lighters and catalysts of success. They are the ones who will become your support systems, your enablers and constituents. Guard your inner space very diligently.

Golden Seeds of Life: Take Action

Getting an idea is not anything new.Talking about them is fine too. Everyone does that. Getting up and going to work on it, now that is what makes the difference. People do not name schools, hospitals, foundations and monuments after just great speech makers, they do that for great change makers.
I discovered a while back that, there are two major types of pain in life. We experience by our actions and inactions. They are the pain of discipline and the pain of regret. The former weighs ounces and the latter weighs tones. Since pain is basically inevitable, which would you rather have? That of discipline or regret? Would you commit yourself to discipline, take action and have the success you desire or you would lazy about, procrastinate and experience the pain of regret? It is your choice to make. Choose action.
