CELEBRATE YOURSELF

Celebration Is An Act Of Marking A Very Important Occasion In One's Life.

As Humans, The Tendency To Celebrate Oneself Might Be A Little Tasking, As Some Feels They Are Not Worth Celebrated, Considering The Happenings Around Them; But The Truth Is That If You Don't Celebrate Yourself As A Person, I Wonder Who Else You Want To Celebrate You. As The Saying Goes "Charity Begins At Home", I Want To State Categorically That "Celebration Should Begin With You".

Never Get Mad At Yourself Because You Have Not Attained That Height You Have Always Imagined And Dreamed Of. Rather, Keep Doing Your Best, Be Creative And Highly Focused. Celebrate Yourself.

Never Be Frustrated When Things Aren't Working Out As Planned, Instead, Remain Focused, As The Sky Is Your Starting Point And Never Your Destination.

Stay Focused. Be The Best You Can Be. Allow God To Have His Way In Your Life. Learn To Celebrate Your Success, Your Advancement in Life. Celebrate You.

Be The Most And Best Of Yourself, As This Is The What You Can Present To The Whole World.

Celebrate Your Greatness, Celebrate Your Impact, Celebrate Your Victory And Celebrate You.

THE GOOD LIFE

The Good Life is a Life constituted by Love And guided by Knowledge. One's life is as a result of the choices he made in the past, hence, if you want the best life, change the way you do things, thus improve on your present and future respectively.

The Urge to Dream, the courage to Act and the optimism to WIN makes life Meaningful, Create the Good life you desire and live it to the full.

Create a Life that feels good on the INSIDE, not just a life that feels perfect on the OUTSIDE.

The Good Life is when you are Lovely on the INSIDE and OUTSIDE respectively.

Sow the Right Words, Think the Good Thought; that is what makes life interesting and sweet.

The Good life is a Process, not a state of mind, It is a Process, never a Destination.

Make the best out of Life; Be the very Best you can be.

INSPIRING WORDS INDEED

Below are some words that I have learnt in Life that has kept me going:

ON EARNING:

Never depend on single income. Make investment to create a second
chance.

ON SPENDING:

If you buy things you do not need, soon you will have to sell things
you need.

ON RATINGS: 

Do not save What is left after spending, but spend what is left after
saving.

ON TAKING RISK: 

Never test the depth of a river with both feet.

ON INVESTMENT: 

Do not put all eggs in one basket.

ON EXPECTATIONS: 

Honesty is very expensive gift. Do not expect it from cheap
people.

If you are depressed, you are living in the past. If you are anxious, you are
living in the future. If you are at peace you are living in the present. 

Past is a Waste paper. Present is a Newspaper and Future is a question paper.

When bad things happen in your life, You have three choices. You can either let it
define you, let it destroy you or you can let it strengthen you.

Empty pockets teach you a million things in life but full pockets spoils you in a
million ways.

Our eyes are in the front because it is more important to look ahead than to
look back.

We used pencil when we were small but now we use pens... do you know why?
Because mistakes in childhood can be erased but not now. So read and write carefully
otherwise life will be tissue paper. . .

Let's make the most out of these inspiring words and be the best in Life..

LIFE IS A GIFT, APPRECIATE IT

Life is a Gift; Each passing day is a gift from God; Open it, Enjoy it, Celebrate it and Appreciate it.

Before you utter any unpleasant word today, reflect on someone that cannot speak.

Just ponder on people that have got nothing to eat before you complain about not eating 3 square meals a day.

Always remember that people die everyday, both young and old, and stop complaining when things don't go your way cos those that are dead would be happier if they are still breathing.

In this world we find ourselves, several people give birth everyday, so many are longing for the fruit of the womb as well, but some that have children often complain about their kids, just remember that there are so many who would do anything just to have a child; appreciate God and appreciate the life He has granted you.

And just before you nag about your untidy house, reflect on those that live in the streets and bridges, that have no where to call home, but you have one.

When you rant about the stress you face at work, remember that there are millions of unemployed just around you.

Before you point accusing finger on someone, always remember that not one of us is without sin and are all answerable to our maker (GOD).

Always be Happy. Show a good sense of humour and appreciate the Life God has given You.

Put on an amazing SMILE when depression come your way.

Life is indeed a special gift, always appreciate God for the gift of Life.



  



  

GOD'S BEAUTY UNLEASHED

God's beauty is unimaginable and simply amazing; It is the beauty of God enjoyed in human form.

God's beauty needs to be unfolded through you. You must do the right thing at the right time.

Appreciate and enjoy the beauty of God as you journey through life.

ONE THING IN LIFE THAT CAN TAKE YOU FAR IN LIFE IS "THE WORD OF GOD"

ADMIRE YOURSELF

I have come to realize that it takes the effort of YOU as a person to admire and encourage yourself like no one else would.

The truth is that if you keep waiting for, or expecting others to appreciate you, you might be embarking on a journey without end cos it might never happen, except in few cases.

For you to be very happy and successful in all you do, there is a need for self - appraisal and encouragement.

We all have amazing and unique talents that distinguishes us one from another, learn to appreciate yourself in that light.

Try to enumerate and understand all your positive attributes and qualities., have confidence in all your intended choices and all you have made, and always be bold to express how you feel.

Moreover, you must encourage yourself by loving yourself. Be your number one fan, when you do so, you will have a good number of fans in return.

Always have this at the back of your mind; that you have a whole lot to offer to your world, be confident and always speak positive words.

Appreciate Life! Appreciate your effort. Be the very best you can be.

The Sky is your starting point. You have so much on your inside.

AM THRILLED AT THIS FASCINATING STORY

A young lady was waiting for her flight in the boarding room of a big airport. As she would need to wait many hours, she decided to buy a book to spend her time. She also bought a packet of cookies. She sat down in an armchair, in the VIP room of the airport, to rest and read in peace. Beside the arm chair where the packet of cookies lay, a man sat down in the next seat, opened his magazine and started reading.

When she took out the first cookie, the man took one also. She felt irritated but said nothing. She just thought: “What a nerve! If I was in the mood I would punch him for daring!”

For each cookie she took, the man took one too. This was infuriating her but she didn't want to cause a scene. When only one cookie remained, she thought: “ah… What would this abusive man do now?”

Then, the man, taking the last cookie, divided it into half, giving her one half. Ah! That was too much! She was much too angry now! In a huff, she took her book,her things and stormed to the boarding place. When she sat down in her seat, inside the plane,she looked into her purse to take her eye glasses, and to her surprise, her packet of cookies was there, untouched, unopened!
She felt so ashamed! She realized that she was wrong…She had forgotten that her cookies were kept in her purse. The man had divided his cookies with her, without feeling angered or bitter. “While she had been very angry, thinking that she was dividing her cookies with him And now there was no chance to explain herself, nor to apologize.”
There are 4 things that you cannot recover:

The stone… after the throw!
The word…after it’s said!
The occasion…after the loss!
The time…after it’s gone.

Cherish Every Moment and Fill It With Love and Care For Everyone.

BE KIND TO ONE ANOTHER AS YOU MIGHT NEVER HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO MEET THAT SOUL EVER IN YOUR LIFE..

REACHING OUT

Getting inspired and motivated to go the extra mile is one aspect of my life I enjoy. Reaching out to others is another area I find rather interesting.

I draw inspirations from what I read, surfing the internet and from amazing people around me.

One thing in Life is to achieve something, another aspect is to let other people benefit from what is been achieved; in so doing, you are said to have succeeded.

An Idea shared is better than an idea kept hidden. Share what you've got, share what you have, that's the spirit of a champion.

Keep Winning! Reach Out to those that wants those fabulous ideas and inspiration of yours.

WHY WE EXIST

Many folks believe that we exist to ensure those around us are pleased and satisfied with our efforts in life; they try everything humanly possible to please men; to their greatest shock, that is very far from the truth.

The purpose of our existence is to please our maker, the God of Heaven and Earth, am not here to preach or do a sermon but this is the reason we are in existence. 

God has kept us thus far to make manifest His glory here on planet earth. It is therefore our sole responsibility to ensure that God is glorified in us.

We are on this planet to also ensure that lives are touched positively through us. What effort are you making as an individual to impact and bless lives with all you've got.

Ponder on these few lines great folks.

JUST A LITTLE GRASP

Over the years, people tend to judge or jump into conclusion that an individual is awkward, wicked and of bad reputation mere looking at him from a distance. But here this, It is until you get close to a person, you will understand him or her.

It is therefore imperative that we apply understanding in trying to access others abilities. Understanding is very key in our everyday life.

You may get angry at people that enjoy pointing accusing fingers at you or correct you openly, but the truth remains that if you want to be the best and grow in life, it is very ideal you work on the faults lines pointed at you and become the best of You.

Understanding works for all facets of one's life. In Relationships, marriages, Socially, Spiritually, academically; If you don't understand your partner, you will quarrel and fight every now and then during your relationship and in marriage. The same is the case with one's social, spiritual and academic life, there ought to be a level of understanding for you to stand out and be the best.

You should know that in trying to become a better person in life, and getting the best at what you do deserves your best efforts and by so doing, be ready for criticism, but be rest assured that those criticisms could be a stepping stone to your limelight.

You were born to radiate God's glory and shine brighter. This can be easily achieved when you learn to understand and respect people's view.

UNDERSTAND AND RESPECT PEOPLE'S OPINION.

YOU ARE THE BEST.

TIME UTILIZATION AND MANAGEMENT

Time Management is a very essential factor as we journey through life in our daily affairs.

Time management is the act of planning and exercising conscious control over the amount of time spent on specific activities in order to enhance productivity, effectiveness and efficiency.

Time utilization is one's ability to create set goals and target despite our tight schedules on a day-to -day basis in order to achieve success. Your plan is nothing without managing your time properly.

An effective time management starts with a clear vision and goal.

Time management is achievable if you do the right thing and place the most important as your priority and ensure you achieve all your set goals on daily basis.

Below are some ways to enhance and manage your time:

                                                 CREATE A TO-DO-LIST

Try getting a reminder system that will keep you abreast as to what should be done with designated time. This will help enhance your time.

                                               BENEFITS OF A TO-DO-LIST

A To-do-list helps focus your mind on very important objectives.

It helps in ordering your thought-pattern, re-strategize you for a better tomorrow.

It will be very difficult to forget your to-do-list, having put them down.

A to-do-list saves you a lot of stress, energy and time.

You are in charge when you have a to-do-list

You always get yourself busy; no dull moment with a to-do-list

You are always on track because you have a record of your day-to-day activities

You can always look at your list from time to time; hence you don't need to hold everything in your head

It enables you to place your priorities right.


                                 FOCUS ON YOUR MOST EFFECTIVE TIME OF THE DAY

In this scenario, some folks have a better time assimilating things at night, while some prefer early in the morning. You must know your most productive time of the day, and work tirelessly with that time for more productivity.

The idea is to figure out when you are most productive and then use that period maximally, paying most attention to it in order to yield massive result.

Depending on where your area of expertise lies, people have different time and things they would love to accomplish giving a set target. For instance.

A student would like to use her most productive hours to study, do his/her assignment and get set for the next class.

In the same vein, a writer would use his most productive time of the day to write and edit as much as possible, while other things can come into play in his less productive time.

MAXIMIZE YOUR TIME.
.
INCREASE PRODUCTIVITY.

CREATE A TO-DO-LIST.

YOU ARE THE BEST!!!

LOVE IS THE ULTIMATE 2

Never say goodbye if you still want to try. 

Never give up if you still feel you can go on.

Never say you  don't like a person anymore if you can't let go.

Love comes to those who still hope, although they've been disappointed somehow.

Love comes to those who still believe, although they've been betrayed.

Love comes to those who still need to love, although they've been hurt before.

And to those who have the courage and Faith to build trust again.

It takes only a minute to get a crash on someone, an hour to like someone and a day to love someone, but it takes a life time to forget someone.

Don't go for looks, they are capable of deceiving you.

Don't go for wealth, it can fade away with time.

Rather, go  for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make dark days bright.

Try and stick to someone that makes you happy.

LOVE IS INDEED THE ULTIMATE AND PRECIOUS SEED SOWN TO PEOPLE.

SHOW SOME LOVE TODAY.

KEEP LOVING; NEVER HATE.

YOU ARE SIMPLY THE BEST.

LOVE IS THE ULTIMATE

Love is a very vital quality that all should long for; It remains the ultimate and the greatest among other things.

It hurts to love someone and not get it back in return; but what is more annoying is to love someone and never find the courage to make your feelings known to the person.

Its obvious that God sometimes wants us to meet a few wrong people  before getting to meet the suitable one so that we will appreciate the gift of love when we eventually meet the right person.

Love entails taking away the passion, feeling, romance  and all there is in a relationship and find out you still care for that person.

The sad thing about life is getting to meet someone who means the whole world to you, only for you to realize that it was never meant to be, and you are left with no option than to let go of that person.

Oftentimes, some folks tend to concentrate so much on a closed door, which might come in form of disappointment, thereby not seeing the door that has been open for them.

It is true that we don't know what we've got until  it is lost; it is also true that we might not know what we are missing until it knocks at the door.

The ability to give someone love does not guarantee that it will revolve back; never you expect love in return when you give it out because you might never get it; you should rather allow it grow in their hearts.

Suffice it to say that there are things you loved to hear that you would never hear from the person you wish to hear from, but don't be so deaf as not to hear it from the one who says it from his/her heart.

LOVE IS THE GREATEST AND THE ULTIMATE.

SHOW SOME LOVE TODAY, BUT I ADVISE YOU, DON'T EXPECT LOVE BACK IN RETURN; THIS WILL SAVE YOU THE STRESS OF REGRETS.

YOU MEAN SO MUCH TO ME

YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY UNIQUE

Over the years, I have come to realize that so many folks feel secluded and incompetent when it comes to self-esteem. They feel they are not good or perfect enough to carry out a particular task.

Always have it at the back of your mind that you are absolutely unique in your Personality, Aspirations, Thought-pattern, Goals, Creative-ability, Attitude to life, Face, Body, Ethnicity, Culture, Gene, Gender, Diction, Voice, Health, Hormones, and lots more.

God has given every man different and unique talents; He thus expect you to function in the light of that unique gift and talent cos He has you there for a purpose.

Always remember that you are absolutely unique, just like everyone else. Try to appreciate others thought-patterns and way of life; this will help distinguish you from every other person.

Listen to your guts, do things you enjoy and remind yourself that you are connected and loved.

Just remember that things can only get better for you; Your character is basically a composite of your habits.

Celebrate your gifts and talents because they make you special.

YOU ARE INDEED VERY SPECIAL AND LOVED.

YOU MEAN A WHOLE LOT TO ME

APPRECIATE LIFE

Life is all about taking chances, losing, finding happiness, appreciating and learning from the past, hence realize the fact that people change with time; this fact will help you become stronger as you journey through life.

Over the years, I have discovered that there is absolutely little or no finish line for everyone in the race of life.

Our tracks and duration are different. The only thing we have in common is the same empire.

I strongly believe you can benefit from these instances slated below;

One person graduates @ age 20 and struggles for another 5 years to get a job, another might graduate @ 25 and get a job immediately.

One can marry a virgin and wait for the next decade to have the blessing of children, another lady probably after having series of abortions in the past, becomes a mother almost immediately after marriage.

A fellow becomes MD @ 38 and dies @ 56, another becomes MD @ 55 and live till age 90. Above all, I have just one sentence for you; BE GRATEFUL AND APPRECIATE LIFE.

What a life! Life is full of twists, turns, ups and downs, Happiness, excitement  and  and many more surprises and disappointments. 

Life offers each one of us different opportunities, and once an opportunity is lost, it's gone forever except by the grace of God. Come what may, learn to appreciate life.

It's up to each and every one of us to patiently prepare, wait, recognize and utilize every opportunity.

We learn on daily basis; No one knows it all or has it better.

Life can be very funny at times, but the good thing is that despite all that happens, it takes a wise man to stand up and appreciate life.

Life is worth the struggle more especially when you flash back at those things you lost and be acquainted that what you have now is greater and far better.

Although life is a competition, let us learn to go easy on ourselves and trust that God is working it all out for our good.

Whatever trials, challenges or down times you face, bear it in mind that in due course, you will be up and strong again to move ahead and lift up those who may be down around you.

WE SHOULD NEVER LOOSE HOPE.

STAY STRONG!

APPRECIATE LIFE!

YOU MEAN SO MUCH TO ME!

THE POWER OF CHOICE

 Choices entails the Power, Right, Liberty and Ability to choose. Choices are the paths an individual take in course of his/her life.

All the choices we make may not always seem good or friendly, but it's sure gonna help us learn as we journey through life.

Every choice you make as a person has a huge impact in your life; hence you must be careful what your choices are.

Everything in life is a reflection of one's choices; thus, if you want a different results, make different choices.

Most times we make right choices and sometimes wrong choices. Our choices in life should be streamlined to positivity and not the other side of positivity.

Funny enough the wrong choices were made before we thought about the effects of those choices made.

Our list of choices are unlimited due to the fact that we are humans; If you don't like how your life is going, then its time to make better choices to better your future.

When unforeseen circumstances plays a fast role in one's life, you have three options; "You let it define you", "You let it destroy you" or "You let it strengthen and build you more". It's all your choice.

One vital goal you must possess as a person is to be in charge of our own choices, take responsibility and don't try to lay blame on any individual when things fail to go as planned.

Take time out to  ponder over your choices and make the ones that will change your life for the best.

A lot of folks make wrong choices and decisions in life; but it takes a wise fellow to get back on track after the so -called wrong choices made.

We all create the person we become by our choices as we journey through life.

You must make a Choice to take a Chance or your life will never Change; Hence the essence of a well-planned choice in life.

STAY INFORMED!

STAY CONNECTED!
