TOUGH TIMES DON'T LAST!

The world is full of challenges targeted at sweeping you off your feet. 

Once you're in pursuit of your dreams, you're bound to encounter diverse obstacles intended at distracting you from getting to your destination. 

Those obstacles and challenges that accompanies them may be inevitable sometimes. They're not what you can run away or sigh away from but when they show up, you have to face them head on. 

But there is a great news: they won't last. Don't give up. 

Giving up is not an option. 

Bowing down your head in despair wallowing in self organized pity party is not an option. Crying, murmuring, grumbling,  complaining and apportioning blames is not an option either. 

One favor you can do to yourself to strengthen yourself is to brace up to encourage yourself by yourself even if no one is right there to encourage you. 

Always draw inspiration from others that have gone ahead who have gone through even worse situations than you think you're going through right now and eventually came out victorious.

There is no glory without a story and there is no success without a scar. 

If you listen to the stories of successful people; what they went through before they eventually arrived at the success destination they're being celebrated for today, you would be scared. 

But in the midst of the challenges, they push through and eventually emerged a celebrity.

No matter how dark or shady your path in life  may seem, know for sure that there would be light at the end of the tunnel. 

Also have it at the back of your mind that when the going gets tough, its only the tough that gets going.

You require the ability to hold on through your challenges with the assurance that light would break forth, the tides would finally turn and your change would eventually come. 

These positive mindsets would activate a positive energy within you that would propel you to take appropriate positive actions that you require to take yourself to a place of lasting success.

Be positive, be assertive and be affirmative of the fact that your success in life is a done deal.

Again, giving up is not an option. Failure is not an option either.

You can either WIN or WIN with a proper mindset. 

Yes, you heard me right; "either win or win". i.e no other option than to win and to succeed. 

When you get to this point in life, even failure becomes an advantage. You treat failure as a negative feedback that can be utilized and converted to a positive outcome.

You need to start engaging the positive side of failure. Yes, failure could be positive if you have a proper mindset. Failure is a discovery of the approach that would not work.

If you had ever failed over anything, what happened was that you have discovered another approach that thing would not work. That is to say, you need to engage another approach that would work.

Try another approach. And keep trying other approaches until you eventually come out successful over that thing.

Push through that hard situation and you'll be surprised with the outcome you can come up with when you don't give up on yourself and your dreams.

To your success in life in the midst of thick tough challenges, situations and circumstances.

Stay Blessed.

YOU TOO CAN SUCCEED: SUCCESS IS NOT A ROCKET SCIENCE

This is a motivation for you today.

Know it deep within you that success in life is not rocket science. 

If anybody had ever succeeded around you, then you too are a bonafide qualified candidate for success. 

The major differences are in time and access. Some other factors could be skills and expertise or resources and finances. 

But while we all have equal access to the same time frame (24 hours each day), some are more prudent in the deployment of there time on productive endeavors and engagements than others which is responsible for the variance in the degree of success and achievements being recorded by different individuals. 

Also, leveraging is another critical component of success which we cannot overemphasize. 

Some people are good at leveraging than others. 

That does not imply that success is exclusively reserved for them at the expense of others. 

However, everybody has what it takes to be a successful specie in life at any endeavor of choice.

What you can't achieve is what you have not conceived in your hearth and also, what you cant achieve is what you don't want to achieve. 

Even if you don't have the requisite experience, knowledge, skills, expertise, means and even the leverage required, you can always take to learning new skills relating to your area of success in view. 

You can always pick up specific literature relating to that field in order to build up the required capacity. 

You can learn new skills or reactivate the old skills that you have had but have not been profiting with. 

You can locate a mentor, i.e. someone that have recorded success in the area of your interest and follow their footsteps and guidelines. 

You can carefully look down deep within and around you for dormant resources that you have left untapped for so long and begin to consider reactivating them for effective and productive use. 

You can actually start up from scratch and build up your success from the base to the top.

Also, always remember that Success is not a Rocket Science. 

                       

It can only take time but if you're determined; The Sky is Your Starting Point.

Success in life is a continuous adventure. 

Success is a continuous journey in which the destination is the starting point of another success journey. 

Success is a process. 

Nobody just sleeps and wake up a success overnight. 

Success is like a gigantic structure that is built over time: a lot of capital investment both financial and human goes into its foundation and to the building as a whole.

Success requires a lot of selfless inputs and sacrificial efforts with a lot of patience to see materialize into the desired result.

You have all what it takes to succeed in life only if you're determined and are intentional in taking the right steps required in the right direction.

To your valuable and distinct success in life.

Every Nigerian Deserves A Good Life

A good and a descent lifestyle is what every Nigerian deserves irrespective of his or her religious, ethnic, political, social, age, cultural and gender affiliations. 

A good lifestyle and a life of absolute comfort with every requirements that enhances a comfortable living should be a necessity and not a luxury for all Nigerians. 

Access to a good healthy lifestyle, quality education and good food should be a normal phenomenon within the country but unfortunately, today, not everyone equally have the privilege of access to all these basic necessities in our great nation. 

As such, as much as everyone desires a great life, the reverse has always been the case these days as our nation have been characterized by all manner of anomaly ranging from vast ignorance to abject poverty to gross insecurity to bad governance and so on in resent times.

While it was the desire of some of our heroes past that Nigeria should be a great place for all and sundry, bad governance and so many other factors had made there dreams unfulfilled; what obtains in Nigeria today is a situation in which a good and a descent lifestyle is only an exclusive list for the rich and the wealthy.

As much as it could be the responsibility of the government of the state to ensure a good lifestyle for it's citizens by making policies that favor the economy, providing a suitable favorable environment for investment and provision of basic infrastructural amenities that enhances productivity for her citizens, depending on our government of the day would lead us into greater frustrations combined with the ones we've already had.

Hence, we citizens should device legitimate means for ourselves to provide a lifestyle of comfort for ourselves without necessarily depending on our government for everything.

HOW CAN WE PROVIDE A LIFESTYLE OF COMFORT FOR OURSELVES WITHOUT DEPENDING ON GOVERNMENT FOR EVERYTHING?

It is the citizens of a country that makes a country and not the country that makes her citizens. A great hero of the United States of America once told his fellow compatriots that: "Don't think of what America would do for you, think of what you would do for America". 

So, that statement infused a mindset with a consciousness of nation building into an average American. That is why America is what it is today. Her citizens made her.

We Nigerians can replicate the same in our country in spite of what obtains today by focusing on what we would do for our nation rather than what our nation would do for us. 

This can be hard on us though as our government has no doubt failed us in so many ways. 

But if we must make progress as a nation, we must put aside whatsoever hurt we must have suffered and fashion out a way forward for ourselves.

Let us take up the responsibility of acquiring skills that would transform our lives.

There are a whole lot of digital skills out there that we can exploit that can transform our financial lives completely as good citizens of Nigeria which so many citizens of the country have taken advantage of and are better off for it today. 

If someone made it legitimately by exploiting the benefits of Digital Skills, we all can make it if we put our minds to learning and implementing the same. 

The onus is on us to make our lives better.

The good life that we deserve, it is we that would make it happen for ourselves.

Thanks for reading.

WE ALL HAVE MONEY TREES

Imaging yourself having a number of trees in the heart of your residential estate that produces several currencies from which you pluck from on daily bases and they produce based on how well they are nurtured? 

You’ll probably treat those trees as sacred, provide them with maximum protection ever possible, properly nurture and groom them for maximum yield. 

You’ll also probably not mind what it would cost you to ensure that the trees are in good shape daily so that you can have a good pluck from each of them everyday.

Unfortunately, many of us have these trees planted all around us but couldn't recognize them. 

What a tragedy? 

Many of the sufferings we go through on daily bases today may have been uncalled for had we known the value of what we possess right within and around us. 

Simply put, we all have money trees growing around us and we still suffer lack of finances simply because we do not recognize them and so we treat them the way we treat every other trees. 

Isn't that insane?

If you are able to discover those trees, you’ll probably give up every other engagement to concentrate and focus on nurturing them effectively and efficiently so that you can always have great maximum daily yields from them.

WHAT ARE THESE MONEY TREES?

These money trees are not far-fetched, only that we don’t pay attention to them. We have them right around us but we can't see them. They include but are not limited to the following:

• Our daily experiences we often trivialize that are capable of enriching us. You can make good money from your daily experiences by converting them to publishable contents which are of high demand these days in the digital space. Like we all know; content is king. These days, a good publishable content is a great source of revenue as many online publishers can pay a good price to anyone that can come up with a great content for them. So, you can be a writer of great contents and be paid good sum of money in return. There are a number of platforms available online where you can subscribe to and be employed to write contents to be rewarded financially in returns. Examples of such sites include: www.fiverr.com, www.upwork.com, www.freelancemom.com etc.

• Your untapped gifts and talents that have been lying idle from time immemorial which could have turned you to a financial giant by now had you put them to good use. These untapped gifts and talents may also be referred to as your potentials which you must discover in order to impact your world positively with them. These potentials of yours are the values you have to bring to the table which you exchange with financial returns.

• Skills that you can pick up and learn and make yourself a better person by forcing out a new version of you on a daily bases. These skills could be digital skills or otherwise depending on the area you choose to create impact. So many people have picked up new skills and transformed there financial status and entire life in the shortest possible time. You too can replicate the same.

• Positive Relationships. Succeeding in life is about leveraging. No man is an island; neither can anyone succeed alone or as an island. We would need good people around us to fulfill our great dreams. The degree of great people we have around us and around the pursuit of our dreams could literally convert to good revenue for the accomplishment of our dreams. “Good people have great monetary value”. Always locate good people around you and surround yourself with them and be a good person yourself.

YOU ARE THAT CHANGE THE WORLD DESERVE

Nigerians should stop waiting for the government to create a change. 

We should by ourselves start effecting the positive changes that we deserve by creating the changes we’ve for long longed for. 

The legitimately wealthiest people around the world and especially in the US are not necessarily government officials. 

They are ordinary citizens that created a business out of the change they created for themselves and eventually transform the lives of people around them by impacting them positively with those changes they created.

The developments in the developed countries of the world are not necessarily completely initiated by their government though the government plays vital role in providing enabling environments for the thriving of the private sector. 

Individuals with the support of the government in these countries initiated the changes they deserve with the mindset that the status quo must not continue;

Positive changes were initiated and transformation birthed.

Hence, the changes they create does not affect only there nationals but the world at large in a positive dimension.

By the changes they create, they are enriched in the realm of Billions of dollars and they are also empowered to transform the world and to affect many human lives positively.

Some examples of these world changers include; Henry Ford of Ford Motor Company, Bill Gate of Microsoft, Jeff Besoz of Amazon, Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook, Steve Jobs of Apple Computers, Larry Page and Sergey Brin of Google and so on.

In the US for instance, the least lucrative sector is the government sector while here in Nigeria the reverse is the case. 

But we Nigerians can through our exceptional creativity "delucrate" the government sector by creating and effecting the positive changes that we deserve and hence affecting the world positively in return.
