On A Stand Still ?

If you are aren't a force-personnel, what's the A....tte....ntion! For? We all know the way Force men salute, well, when you do unnecessary stop-and-greet(engaging in unnecessary activities)  while journeying through life  then it can be said of you to be standing still.

One good evidence of a living man is his movement. This movement could either be a straight or an upwards-downwards one. And so a stand-still is a dangerous position to be because it signifies a lifeless state.

Life rocks but don't get rocked out of shape, ideas, growth, expansion and progress.
One good way to stand-still is waiting for everybody's approval of you or chasing their shadows so they can place you somewhere in life, just because you think they have all it takes to make you who you would like to become. Please don't make this mistake, it will keep you on the 'still' mood, just like what the pause botton on your remote control device does to your movie or music.

Secondly, try as much as you can not to always get engaged in unprofitable argument, it leads nowhere.
Never reject good advice or avoid wise counsel
Please have this in mind; When you see your ways, ideas, perspectives, suggestion, as better than every other person's, you are keeping your self at the stand still position.
If you fail to update yourself in your career line, you will be at a stand still

When you refuse to learn new things by un learning what needs to be un learnt , that's a stand still position, please MOVE!
Do you hold grudges and refuse to let go because you have this conviction that you are right and the other person is definitely wrong? Mmnn... your fingers are leaning on the 'pause' button again.

And then you refuse to share what you know that'll be beneficial to your group, just because you want all the credit to yourself? Well, you are on a stand-still position

Life is about movement; encourage yourself and believe, let go of little things, embrace new ones, skip the beat of grudges and stay open to change (positive change) and you'll notice how fast you'll move and how far you can get on this journey of succesful movement in life.

GIVE IT A SHOT!

A Wrong Time To Fail

Failure is for only those who plan to fail... oh yes!

Does anyone plan to fail? Well, yes; when you stop on your way to success, just to ask direction from 'self pity' who directs you instead, to the road that leads to excuses. Then it can be said that you actually created room for failure.

Failure is the place where you rest at that moment when you feel you can't go further.

The first place anyone fails from is their heart. How can you put your effort to halt?
The effort you have put in so far, to gain that contract, to be the best fashion designer, the unique hair maker, the best financial analyst, the most skillful footballer,boxer, wrestler, the most sought after plumber, engineer, builder, the ireplacable parent, the creative makeup artist.
How can you come this far to quite, how can you?

Never give-in to pressure, weakness, laziness, discouragement. These things are just like stairs that should lead you to the top.

Also remember to manage your weaknesses, we all have two or more of them. Study yourself, identify your area of strength and know this; where you have the opposite is where the weakness lies. State out those weaknesses and work on them one after the other.

Don't be a trash can, where any and everybody can come dump their garbage. Meaning? Don't respond to every words spoken to you or actions taken against you.

are you learning a trade and your master is giving you tough time, so tough that you feel like calling it off or the boss you are trying so hard to please does not even acknowledge your effort, or you feel your coach is being sentimental?
And for this reason, you feel like quitting the job,the team, the home,school. Don't!

Well, it's natural to feel so but you should equally understand that the reason why its looking this tough is because you are on the right part and closer to achieving your aim. Remember, the darkest night is close to the day.
Don't be discouraged my friend, hold on a little longer while pressing on.

Get this: It's too late to quiet, NOW IS THE WRONG TIME TO STOP and fail

A New Start (the Job)

As the year rolls by, we all should ensure that adequate arrangement is being made toward the coming year.

I know you are tempted to start putting on-paper those unrealistic plans for 2016. Yes, I call it unrealistic because most people do not set SMART goals, they only want to join the band wagon of 'activity-personnels'.
S= specific
M= measurable
A= attainable
R= realistic
T= timely

You need to sit up and do things the right way and the right way mustn't be every other person's way but a convinced way that will work.

your job is a vital aspect of your life because most of your time is spent at work. And so, let's talk about "a new start at work"
            Year 2016 is a brand new year, and so make up your mind to start in a brand new way, move in a grand-style.
Determine not to do things the usual way, you have the capacity to think-up new things; new method of solving problems, new way of relating with colleagues, new ideas to share with your boss or superior.

I challenge you to find something new, do a discovery;
Discover something new about using the computer,
a better way of understanding individual (those you relate with in the course of the job), identify their differences and relate with each one in their peculiar way (the method Is very profitable, please try it ) .
Cultivate the habit of not only reading periodicals and magazine, also read people, learnt that act.
Know what motivates others to do their job and incase you work in group, use that skill to get others involve in the task at hand.

Do not pick offence when you are corrected, instead pick a lesson and act on it.

Don't get involved in the 'eye-service' duty this coming year, do the needful. Even when the required is not available, make do with what is available.

Work with time and always remember that you can only use time to your advantage because you can't control it.
Do not get carried away with competition, sometimes the people that you compete with do not have so much to offer, even if they have, what they can do is limited and so if you keep doing what they are doing, who will do something new?

Finally, no matter how much you are being paid, work as if you own the business because some day you will own yours and the law of karma will come knocking.

Nice year so far but I expect a better you in 2016

G I V I N G (THE REVELATION I GOT)

Let me share this Revelation with you

It's on GIVING

...and so the Holy Spirit was taking me through this teaching on giving...

Made me understand that 'if' you have been ministered to in your spirit to give out a particular thing. You are convinced but Your heart and your head is still engaged in a serious struggle with letting go...

one reminding you how useful that thing is to you, how maybe you would be needing it in the near future.

He said to me; at that point, what is at play is simply 'Covetousness'

Ha=O ! How can it be covetousness when it's mine thing, my time, my idea, my money, my cloth, my shoe, my belt, my 3D screen, my car, my house, my writings, my Art, my, my phone, my strength,  all mine[-( ????

He then made me understand that @that point after you have received the conviction to give out that thing, its NO LONGER YOURS and so wanting to keep 'at all cost' what is no longer yours is an act of Covetousness

Luke 12:15 " And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth."

I pray the HolySpirit shade more light on this in your heart IJN...Amen!

STAY FLEXIBLE

Be flexible, be open to correction and always try to pick a point from critics. One of the advantages of being flexible is that no matter how people try to bend you, you cannot be bent out of shape. 

One thing, I have come to learn in life is that being corrected is a wonderful measure, just like a wood that is worked upon with nails, hammer, and sandpaper. The wood will turn out refined and beautiful, looking well fixed, smooth and in a perfect shape. Ready to be taken to a well-decorated house or even a palace, but as for the critics, like the nails; will be invisible, as the hammer; they will be worn out and as the sandpaper, they will be useless. The end of all those tools will be the carpenter’s shop or the trash can.

It’s also important that you understand that everyone we come in contact with in life, has a specific assignment in our life and when they are through they will have to leave so as to create a chance for the next person to come in, (consider it a graduation day.....lol).

Note: Do not try to make anyone stay, let them go if they have to, just understand that their work with you is done and you have stepped up to face greater challenges

3 Ways To Command Your Future

Learn to command your future and act positively. 

1. Speak positive things into your future, and begin to act and speak the way you will like to be tomorrow. 

2. Don’t try to maintain status quo, break the boundary, aspire to achieve greater things, far above what your parents or mentors have achieved. Define life!

3. Don’t speak negative things into your life, do not relegate yourself either. There is always hope for those that put their trust in God and persevere. 

Ben W. Hooper was a Governor of Tennessee from the year 1911 to 1915. He was born in a fatherless household, struggled through life but still made it to the Governor’s seat. 

If he could, then you can, and even do better.

PRIORITIZE YOUR ACTIVITY

Learn to prioritize your activities. 

Do not be carried, away by unnecessary things, plan your life. Do not give much attention to things that are trivial that may end up eroding your precious time Prioritize your needs (Let first thing be first). 

Be disciplined and begin with little things, soon you will be a master controller of your own life. 

For instance, some people cannot do without their phones, tablet, ipad, laptops, for a minute. During the course of studying, they can put their books aside just to browse. They can also pick up calls while they speak with an elder, even when in church or in any social gathering, they’ll prefer to browse rather than pay attention, they lose concentration to something that is of less importance.

Don’t watch movie when it’s time to study, or go to see a friend when you have a seminar to attend. 

At work, don't go for a tea break when its time to submit your report to your boss.

Always learn to do the right thing at the right time, even if you do the right thing at the wrong time, it is still a waste of time. Don’t waste that time, you have no control over it but you have control over your own activities.

IDLENESS

As young people, the word ‘idle’ should be missing from every page, in the book of your life. 

Be active, engage yourself in one thing or the other; go on course, attend seminars, get a Diploma, OND, HND, a Degree, Masters, Ph.d’s and don’t focus on certificate alone, you can learn a trade like; fashion designing, furniture, hair dressing, shoe making, bead making, make-up, and the rest of them. 

You mustn’t nut a tie to make it in life, neither must you be employed, you can be an employer of labour. Bear in mind that you cannot be richer than your employer, except you are into a personal business.

If at all nothing motivates you anymore, this should; the world is waiting for your manifestation. In Romans: 819 ‘For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God’ (KJV). 

No other person can make the exact impact you were created to make in this world and so do not seat around doing nothing or living by the mercy of others.

‘Good Christian’ ‘Bad Christian”

We live in a time when the term “Christian” has been so diluted that millions of nice & moral people genuinely consider themselves “good Christians.”


The perception should be thus; “the Christians are good people” rather than “they are goof CHRISTIANS”, which indicates that there can be “bad Christians”.

Let’s take a look at the interpretation of both;

‘Good Christians’ can be said to be those who act like Christ in the good way

Behave Like a child but don’t misbehave like a child

Matthew 18 vs 3 Jesus was teaching that we should become like children so that we can enter into the kingdom of heaven.

Children as we know are loving, kind & soft hearted, forgiving, they quickly forget offenses, easily pleased and believes almost all things that they are told.

All these are part of their behavior which the grown-ups should emulate and in as much as this is how their mind operates, we should not on the other hand misbehave like them.

They sometimes can be naughty, so impatient because they lack the capacity to

DISPOSITION ALARM

A whole lot of us do not pay attention or should I say we pay LESS attention to the drift in our disposition & attitude especially when we feel or see ourselves as being there. 

Here are few things that we should watch as we make progress in life's journey:

If you've got the brain, Watch your thought

If you've got the anointing, watch your words

If you've got the money, watch your attitude

If you've got the love, watch your response.

If You've attained the height, watch your shoulders

If you've got the qualification, tame your tongue

If you've got the experience, respect others.

You've got to stay alert &
Maintain a watchful attitude if you want all these retained

5 CATEGORIES OF THE UNEMPLEYED

The below Categories of people are responsible for their unemployment

1. Those who look down on themselves; these are people have succeed in convincing themselves that they aren't good enough for the Job.

ARE YOU UNEMPLOYED OR IDLE?

There is a reason for every and anything that happens to a man. That very 'reason' has a door that leads to the solution or improvement of the given situation.

Now, in as much as we fail to sit-back and ask ourselves deep questions, we might never make a head way in life.

This article is not only for the unemployed, it is also for those who are comfortable with the 'low-level'.

There are millions of people without jobs and are equally not self employed around the world But in this same world, there are billions of people employed(either by self or other-wise). How come you aren't a part of the later?

SETTING GOALS... In What Way? PART 11

...this post is a continuation of 'SETTING GOALS... In what way?' 
PART 1.

En-devour to read from Part 1, in other to go with the flow...


Great Dream, Good Target but Something is definitely wrong with the Part they Tow just to get to the top.

Please take a moment to ask yourself; In what way do I plan to achieve my aim?

Is my motive right? if yes, what about the part I plan to take or I am taking to get to my set destination.
Of-course anyone can get anywhere by GRACE but will definitely not last there if they lack quality skills and true-personality trait, also, with time(short time of-course) 'can' be DIS-GRACED out of the sit.

Seek first to do the job you applied for, accepted and being paid to do. In the course of carrying out your duty, you might be recommended for a top position. One that you might never dream or bargain for. 

Do you know that the bible is so complete? Yes it surely is. 
Always make out time to study it and you will be guarded in life's journey including your career Part. 

Matthew 6:33 says "But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well."

SETTING GOALS... In What Way? PART 1

We are in a time when almost everyone is awaken to progress and transition, which of-course is a good thing.

Breaking new grounds, finding good space, setting pace and leading in my field is one good thing to engage in, absolutely great!

I for-one have this zeal to do better and perform above my equal.

Here i am in the field of Accounting, loving the figures; enjoying the challenge of looking for even Nigerian kobo's, as little as 0.01, 0.25, 0.02k's. 
Trying to ensure that account for the previous month is balanced before its 28th of the current month again.

Calling our Company's Account Officer, requesting for Credit advice of un-treated transactions, returned Cheques and at the-same time requesting the correct bank details from beneficiaries whose instructions where not part of those honored.

3 ISSUES OF PARENTING

1. Criticism
this is one major discouraging factors that affects the home. Parents are quick to criticize one another especially in a case where couple have different ways of doing things, including method of correcting the children.

WHAT DEPARTMENT AND WHY?

 Departments in Church are segments created to handle specific assignment in the church.
                                     
Taking RCCG, where I worship as an example. We have the

LOVE, DATING & THE 7 SOLUTIONS THAT WORKS

IF YOU WANT YOUR HEART BACK, YOU CAN HAVE IT!

 read through til the end...

The dictionary defines love in several ways, which makes it complicating to ‘think’ about.

· Agape is unconditional love. It is love by "choice" even if you are not pleased. A good example is "God loves us with our faults".

· Philia is charity or brotherly love, guided by our likes or our healthy or unhealthy needs and desires. This is why Philadelphia is called the "City of Brotherly Love".

· Storge is the word for family love and the physical show of "affection", the need for physical touch. Sometimes it's the love between exceptional friends

Eros is the physical "sexual" desire, intercourse. It is the root word of erotic, anderoticism. (which off course breeded by lust or infatuation).                         

THE COST

Most young people 

these days

 just want everything 

at any cost, 

forgetting that 

the 'cost' at the end is 'terribly costly'

DEEP THOPUGHTS

You've got hands

                                   

You've got legs

                                    

You'v got sight

Brain Capacity

Our brain have the capacity to accumulate 'how-ever-much' the number of ideas we want to formulate in there.
Do not ever think that you are too dull or not smart enough, let that be only for those who have chosen the part of failure.
Make that move, Get Started!
Its about time you break new grounds.

GRUDGES

... & we hold grudge against others, so much that we feel we can never forgive the wrong 'we think' they've done us...

But God demonstrated His own love towards us in this:

That while we are still sinners Christ died for us. Rom 5:8

In Christ we have a perfect lead

I love this J E S U S.

GOD 

DOESN'T 

JUDGE 

BY 

MAN'S 

STANDARD!

BETTER SAVED

SALVATION is for you, do not reject or ignore it.

Do not allow anything rob you of this precious gift from God.

Accept Jesus Today & rededicate your life to Him in case you already have...

                                
Let's rock this Christian faith to the fullest... It's the best!

JUNE CELEBRANTS

... okay!

 can't mention all names but let's do a few, here we go; 

God's OWN Way...

Sometimes 

we get so used to God showing up in a particular way

so much that 

when He doesn't show up in the way that we have gotten used to,

 we begin to feel He has failed us. 

BUT 

God never fails

He is GOD and He can choose to come in an unusual way.

Or even choose not to give us what we desire when it's against His own will for us.

GOD CAN

God 

is not a man 

that He will lie, 

neither son of man that He would repent of His WORD. 

Has he said it? 

then He will DO it!

SEE AHEAD...

Look 

beyond your weakness 

and 

unbeliever. 

There are better views ahead 

& 

only those who can see it 

will get it.

ABOUT FAITH

You see... 

faith without works is dead. 

After you believe, 

you must start acting 

from the little place 

that you can

ACTION

ACTION 

is the CAR

The STAR*

When you have an outstanding future ahead of you,things will be tough
bcos
people will be threatened by your outstanding performances & will try to either
shut you out,
kill that dream,Or
relegate you to the background so as to discourage & silence you.

Out of envy & fear that you will soon out stand them.


They are too afraid to watch you shine (their problem, not yours).

They will sense that you carry something super-natural,
something extra-ordinary,
because you are somebody that can not be hidden;

Let's be Frank! Part I

Not to judge, nor to condemn but to redirect & enlighten.

Sexual Relationship for the unmarried is WRONG.

Yap, it is. Plain truth!

& so how do we handle this?
Come with me>>>

Singles of our times find it difficult to tell someone what they are truly experiencing because they don't want to loose the person whom they are in a relationship with & would rather want to do every & anything possible to keep the relationship going.

U see, no matter how smart, intelligent, high "I.Q'd" & clever you are, you still need a confidant. Someone you can trust, share things with & be totally open to.

WHO YOU ARE Vs WHAT YOU DO

I never thought of this until i had a chat with a friend of mine who happens to be a lawyer...

She said to me "joy, I would always want people to meet 'the' 'me' first before they know my profession"

E.g- people should know and like something about Joy Ndidi before they discover that I'm a Public Speaker

what’s the message in that?
I'll tell you...
The message is HUMILTY & SELF DISCOVERY

So many people have lost their Character & humility to their achievement.
They are nowhere to be found, we only see what they do:(

CHANGE TACTIS

Make your effort count and don't waste it

we all know this saying ~"doing the-same thing and expecting different result"

but

how many of us can truly beat our chest to say we ain't guilty of it?

Do a critical analysis of your daily routine...

Analyse the procedures you follow in the course of discharging your daily duties at work, in your business, home and all...

CHANGE YOUR TACTICS

Be creative
Innovative
Explore and take that chance, just risk it if it seems like it.
Make a change NOW!

Forgiveness and hatred will not only destroy your spirit...

it will also bring you down to the lowest level, thereby reducing you to nothing

"Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us"

This also means; "Lord, until i forgive that woman, until i forgive that man who have offended me don't forgive me"

make your CHOICE!
