Your MISSION Prt3.




Do you have a sense of Direction?

Any one who wants to grow but don't know himself will end up going through cycle in life says - John Maxwell

To go forward in life, you must know yourself : your strength and weaknesses, your interests and opportunities.

You must be able to gauge not only where you've been, but where you are now. Otherwise you can't set a course for where you want to go.

To reach your full potential, you must know where you want to go and where you currently are. With both of those pieces of information you're liable to get lost.

There are three kinds of people when it comes to having a sense of direction in life.

1. People who don't know what they would like to do
- these people are often confused. They lack a strong sense of purpose. They don't possess a sense of direction for their lives. If they are growing, they are unfocused about it they dabble. They drift. They can't reach their potential because they have no idea what to shoot for.

2. People who know what they would like to do but don't do it.
- These people are usually frustrated, everyday they experience the gap between where they are and where they want to be. Sometimes they aren't doing what they want because of fear of losing. They are not ready to pay the price to learn, grow and move forward. No matter what the reason, they too miss their potential.

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...
