MOTIVATED YET STAGNANT

"Bud, can I confide in you?
Gab asked a few minutes after she walked in looking exhausted.

Bud, I feel most of these Motivational Speakers and books lie to us.

I read them most times, you can attest to that.
"yeah sure... I'm attentive"

Yet it seems not to be taking effect in my life.

How sure are we that they are telling us everything we need to know?

Gab said staring while expecting an answer.

Bud stared too, wasn't sure if it was a question or statement.

To avoid an awkward silence, Bud settled for the former.
"Well Gab, truth is... I'm yet to get your point.
What exactly is the issue, is it that you don't believe them or that you find their stories untrue?

"well, I'm not sure.

I feel they are blowing it out of proportion.

I've been following their update and reading every recommendation

Yet my success story seems far away.

"Gab so you listen to motivational speakers and then do what?
I asked. "Do what?

What else am I expected to do, I gain the knowledge and utilize it.

"How do you utilize it, please?

I'm trying to know the bone of contention.

Motivational speakers or books aren't meant to bring success to your door post

It directs your path, gives you principles and other nitty-gritty you need to get to your zenith.

It's not a get rich quick scheme Gab...

These guys share their story with you so you learn from them.

"So you are saying that my reading isn't enough? Gab asked.

"Not really, what I'm saying is, it's not just about reading but converting what you read, the knowledge you amass. How well have you applied them physically?

Action is the deal.

It's not just about reading but consciously implementing it.

We have lots of Gab out there.

To attain that zenith, some Price needs to be paid.

If success were to be as easy as reading a book, then many would be there.

We have 4 phases of success.

1.The Humble\beginning stage: most times difficult, I sometimes call it the registration phase.

2. The making process: many don't like this stage because they find it tedious. while some throw in the towel. Every successful person today went through this phase, the preparation phase.

3. The harvest phase: I call this the enjoyment stage. This is a phase where you get the sweet from your sweat.

4. The Continous growth phase: yeah don't stop growing. Continous growth sustains your achievement.

Don't just stay motivated!

ACT!

CONVERT WHAT YOU KNOW!

LOVE, A GIFT

Image
On Valentine’s Day we express love to others and that is good, often a romanticizing of love but sometimes just a friendly acknowledgement of people we care about. God created everything and is also the origin of love. In God's perspective, love means being ready to sacrifice your life for someone. It can be so easy to get wrapped up in the sweet celebration of love for each other that we forget where all this love really came from. We love each other because He first loved us. — 1 John 4:19 Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to be just about us. If we are as intentional about loving Him as we are about loving each other, the whole day can still bring glory to the Creator. Whatever is good and perfect comes down to us from God our Father, who created all the lights in the heavens. — James 1:17 Love is a discipline. Jesus said, "If you love me just as I have loved you, keep my commandments." God has shown us his love, so we must keep to the discipline of love. If u don't do

WHAT IF EASTER DIDN'T EXIST?

Image
Death laid his hands on Jesus. It put Jesus in a tomb. There was a stone in the mouth of that tomb and the seal of the Roman government was placed upon that tomb. But on the third day, Jesus Christ stirred Himself. He rose from the sleep of death, Jesus Christ passed through the walls of that rock-hewn tomb. Jesus Christ is Alive. He is not behind us in a tomb but before us on a throne. I want to ask you a question. Suppose that had not happened. Suppose death still held Jesus like it does to those that died before him and after him? WHAT IF EASTER DIDN'T EXIST? 1 Corinthians 15:12-19. I’ll admit, it’s a loaded question. Much like, “What if you were never born?” That question is heavy, strong, and loaded. But this question, "WHAT IF EASTER DIDN'T EXIST?" should be considered very carefully. Because the truth is, an entire faith hinges upon this event. Churches today exist because they believe in Easter, in the resurrection. Countless millions of people place their fai

RELATIONSHIP ADVICE

Image
The idea of RELATIONSHIP when it involves the two opposite sex has been bastardized with so many movie scenes giving us the wrong picture. Little wonder why a lot of people fall for the wrong reasons. There is no one way fit all when we talk about a meeting of two opposite sex that then lead into relationships but at the same time, some pictorial ideologies are not true.  The right one won't always come with flowers and Valentine's love letters. They won't always come on romantic dates, movie nights out, or in a New Year's fireworks show.  They won't always have to be the one who sleeps next to you in a high school field trip, the one who films you in a beach get-away, or the one whom you wanted to be your most awaited prom dance. They won't always come on a perfect night, watching the full moon beside you, on the top of your neighbor's roof.  They won't always come along with butterflies in your stomach, racing heartbeats, and blushing cheeks. Sometimes
