HOW TO OVERCOME THE STORMS OF LIFE

"But those who hope in the LORD  will renew their strength;  they will fly up on wings like eagles;  they will run and not be tired;  they will walk and not be weary."  Isaiah 40:31 (CEB) WHEN YOUR FAITH & FOUNDATION IS IN CHRIST JESUS, YOU SHALL CONTINUE TO RENEW YOUR STRENGTH AND IN THE MIDST OF THE STORMS OF LIFE YOU SHALL BE SOARING HIGH LIKE THE EAGLE, DESPITE THE OPPOSING CHALLENGES. HOWEVER, WHENEVER YOU SHIFT YOUR FOCUS FROM YOUR FAITH IN THE LORD TO THE STORM, YOU WILL BEGIN TO SINK, JUST LIKE PETER IN BIBLE STORY. "Lord, if it's you," Peter replied, "tell me to come to you on the water." "Come," he said. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, "Lord, save me!" Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. "You of little faith," he said, "why did you doubt?" Matthew 14:28-31...

How To Live A Happy Life

You have the choice in life to decide what you focus your mind on; when you focus mainly on what you don't have, what you can't control and all the bad experience from your past or even your present, you will always be unhappy and depressed. However, when you replace constant expectations with habitual appreciation, you can face the future with joy, hope and you will begin to attract resources and see opportunities that you have been oblivious to. Many people get in the habit of lamenting what they can't amend, instead of being grateful for everything, including their mistakes, because it is in the furnace of failure that success was forged. The Ultimate Success Book puts it this way, "And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose." Romans 8:28 (ESV) "Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." 1 Thessalonians 5:18 (ESV) This i...

From Loser To Champion

The Law Focus could be used to turn our greatest fear to our greatest asset for success, by refocusing our creative thoughts from negative imaginations to positive imaginations. To this requires a change in perspective because when you change the way you look at something, you will begin to see a different perspective from what you previously focused on. By always focusing on the valuable lessons you can learn from any bad experience, instead of blaming yourself and becoming too fearful to try again;  your greatest fear could be changed to your greatest asset for success. The Law of Focus helps you to keep your mind on the right track and control your mental dialogue and emotions to achieve your ultimate goals in every challenge, especially when others are loosing their minds and unable to envision a way out. Whenever you allow yourself to be trapped in a victim's mentality, feeling so bad, perhaps due to a bad experience, you will sabotage your mind's ability to focus on the v...

BEWARE OF THE FOUNDATION

BEWARE OF THE FOUNDATION Our journey in life could be compared to a building site with different phases of development from conception through design process to construction and final completion and hand-over. At every phase of a building project, the builder shall face different level of challenges depending on the type of building. However, the foundation of every building is an indication of the amount of load it is designed to withstand. A gigantic mansion would have a stronger foundation than a bungalow Likewise at every stage of our journey in life we will face diverse challenges and when your foundation is not strong  enough, you will buckle under the pressure of the load. When you have a big dream and you are determined to make that dream successful, then you must be prepared to build a solid foundation that will withstand every challenges life will throw at you. How then can you build a solid foundation for a successful life? "Unless the Lord builds the house, They ...

The Farmer And The Seed

No good farmer would plant a seed and then dug it up every day to check if it has started sprouting. Rather a patient farmer will water and nourish the soil to enable the seed germinate and flourish, because the soil is as important as the seed. It takes a good soil and a patient farmer to transform a seed to a fruitful harvest. Likewise, the journey to a successful life starts with the seed of our desires and dreams of greatness planted in our minds. However, like the impatient farmer many people destroy the seed of their desires and dreams by prematurely aborting it through their doubts, fears, negative words and disempowering thoughts. On the contrary, successful people continuously water and nourish the seed of their desires and dreams by believing in it, visualising it, affirming and vocalising it as an accomplished fact. They are patient enough to hold unto the seed of their desires and dreams for as long as it takes to become a reality. "Therefore I say unto you, What thi...

Leadership Demystified

The ability and competence to become a successful leader; whether in an executive or non-executive capacity is an ongoing transition and not a fixed position meant only for the privileged elites in any society or organisation. The idea that only a few privileged individuals can master the process of leadership to permanently occupy high positions is a myth and such ideology is synonymous with colonialism. You can learn the process of leadership and become a successful leader, whether you sit in the executive suite or you are the company janitor. Simply put, everything in life is learnable and the only thing that can stop you from succeeding is when you allow someone else's negative opinion of you to become your reality. ".... If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth." Mark 9:23. Your were created to become a successful leader in your area of dominant gifting, so refuse to give up until you dominate your domain. This is an excerpt from my new ...
