The Journey... Part 4

Take it a step further and really consider dreams you had when you were younger or currently have about what will make you truly happy.

The Journey...Part 5

5. If money were no object, how would you live your life differently?

Many people equate happiness and success directly to the amount of money they have. How many times have you heard someone say, “If I hit the lottery, I’d…”

But remember, this question isn’t really about money at all. It’s more about thinking outside the limits we tend to put on our aspirations and actions because things seem out of our reach financially.

You may not be able to do those exact things, but once you know what those true desires are, you expand your thinking and begin to develop a plan to work towards goals you may have never imagined possible.

Now answer this question
If money were no object, how would you live your life differently?
From 8am to 8pm?
From Monday to Sunday?
Take a note and write them down.
Try and see if you can live these life now, if you can,please do. But if you can't, it will serve as your reason for working and building your dream future.

THE TRUE YOU 4.

Living a proactive life will transform your life for the better. You will feel more confident, in control of your life and will have a happier and more fulfilling life. How to achieve this goal?  Take responsibility for your own actions. Accept the idea that it's OK to make mistakes. We are humans, mistakes are part of life and are a great opportunity for learning.         Put your needs first.It’s not about being selfish: you have to focus on your needs and be happy so that you can be there for others. It is to be noted that when you are sad or unhappy you can't be fully available to others. On the other hand when you are full of joy and rejoice, you can help other people in a true manner. It’s not the other way around. It is your life, you have to make it great. Nobody else will do it for you.        Ask yourself: what do you really want in life? What are your dreams? What would your perfect life look like? To be happy you...

Financial Success 3

MONEY: WHAT I WISH I KNEW 15 YEARS AGO I've wanted to do this for a while. Following the recent economic upheavals in our nation, many have desperately searched for ways to hammer. Some have been unfortunate victims of get-rich-quick schemes. I wish someone had told me fifteen years ago what I'm going to tell you now about money: 1. Money is seasonal. It comes and goes. This is not my first recession. I've worked for over fifteen years, so I've seen at least two major "recessions" in Nigeria; times when my clients tightened their belts, prices of basic goods & food skyrocketed and my standard of living plummeted. But the interesting thing is this - before the times of lack came, there was a period when money just seemed to flow. New jobs came, new ideas came and with them, a steady stream of income. It is what I did in those times of plenty (whether I invested or not) that determined how much I suffered during the bleak times. Pay attention to yo...

Your Future ( Wake Up )

Wake Up from Your Sleep 1-2Watch what God does, and then you do it, like children who learn proper behavior from their parents. Mostly what God does is love you. Keep company with him and learn a life of love. Observe how Christ loved us. His love was not cautious but extravagant. He didn't love in order to get something from us but to give everything of himself to us. Love like that. 6-7Don't let yourselves get taken in by religious smooth talk. God gets furious with people who are full of religious sales talk but want nothing to do with him. Don't even hang around people like that. 11-16Don't waste your time on useless work, mere busywork, the barren pursuits of darkness. Wake up from your sleep, Climb out of your coffins; Christ will show you the light! So watch your step. Use your head. Make the most of every chance you get. These are desperate times! 17Don't live carelessly, unthinkingly. Make sure you understand what the Master wants. *St...
