HOW TO SUCCEED IN 2012


Welcome to year 2012, the year with great promises.

Every year comeS with its challenges and blessings. While others are crying that a year is bad, others smile to the bank always.

So what makes others cry while others laugh in a year with great promises such as this?
It all depends on how we start our year. How well did you lay the foundation of your year in order to reap the benefits this year promises?

Are you depending on chance or luck?
Let me tell you my FRIEND, in our present world, nothing works on chance or luck. You either plan for or be prepared to fail! You either pay the price OR you don't deserve the prize!

The year has just began: have you draw up your plan for the year? Or are you waiting for manna to fall from heaven?
The days of manna are no more! This is the time of fending for yourself.
And how will you fend for yourself when you don't have a well written plan to guide you in your life dealings?

My dear, start this year with a plan. A simple plan will do - something as simple as this:
(1) FAMILY:
* I'll spend more time with my family this year.
* I'll ensure I help my son/daughter with her school work this year
* etc.

(2) FINANCES:
* I'll add another source of income to my major income to help in improving my family living standard.
= Alternative sources of income =
- Work at home businesses: Data entry, Virtual Assistant, etc
* I will sale my second car to raise money to start a business.
* Etc...

(3) SPIRITUAL:
* I'll study the word of God everyday morning and evening before going to bed.
* I'll teach my children the ways of God
* I'll fast every Friday
* Etc...

(4) CAREER
* I'll attend courses this year to improve my earning
* Etc...

(5) SELF DEVELOPMENT
* I must learn a new language this year
* I'll make sure I read a new book every week
* Etc...

A simple plan like the format above can go a long way in guiding you to the prosperity door of year 2012.

NOTE:
After identifying the areas you want to work on (like above), analyze the situation critically and develop alternative measures/areas that will help you in achieving your goal(s) for the year and select the best alternatives that are feasible.

Writing down a plan is NOT ENOUGH! You must follow the plan strictly and make changes along the way where necessary.

In simple terms, YOU'RE IN CHARGE OF YOUR YEAR ONLY IF YOU KNOW WHERE YOU'RE GOING AND HAVE A MAP (PLAN) ON HOW TO GET THERE.

Have a glorious year. My promise is: I'll always be by your side to give you my best; so keep visiting this blog and post comments where necessary, as well as tweet, facebook or email the blog to your love ones - You'll will never know "the block that will complete their building".

STAY BLESSED.

Fear is Fake!!!

Fear is a state of confusion. It a state of hopelessness. Fear cripples, fear destroys.  It rendered a strongman weak. It rendered potent man impotent. It makes a rich man poor. Fear kills! There was a Youngman, he loves cooking so much, so he decided and picked a job with a restaurant in his city.   It was a big restaurant that offers late services. His job was to cook soup on a daily basis from 8am to 5pm. He loves meat so much. Whenever he was preparing soup for the restaurant, he will steal pieces of meat from the soup. He did this on daily basis.   One day, he went to work very early and found chickens in the restaurant store. He cannot remember when last he had eaten chicken and chicken happens to be his best meat. He look around to see if anybody was around. There was nobody in sight. He look to the left, right and back, there was no body watching him. He caught one of the chicken, twist its neck, hide it under his clothes and...

Start Today

There was a little boy whose father asked him one day: “What would you like to be when you grow up?” and he replied, “I’d like to be the best footballer.” The next day, as early as 5am, his dad came to his room and woke him up. When he checked the time, he was surprised that his father would wake him up so early. He said, “Daddy it is just 5am, I still have to sleep.” But his father said, “No, my boy. Last night you said you wanted to be the best footballer. If that is going to happen, then you have got to learn to wake up early, jog and train every day. If you do this until you are eighteen years old, you will be the best.” Reluctantly, the boy got up from bed and went to jog with his daddy. The interesting part of the story is that the boy ended up being the best. What does this tell us? It is not enough to make a decision for success; you have got to wake up early and start heading towards your goal. You can’t still be in bed at 8am in the morning and expect to be the best; it does ...
