WHAT TO CONSIDER BEFORE BUYING A POWERBANK
Portable battery chargers, better known as power Bank have
become a great utility for Smart phone users as it not only helps to keep your
devices charged up while on-the-move, but also because they in spite of being
handy and portable, can charge your Smart phone and tablet multiple times
depending on the capacity.

JOKE (2)
One day Akpos and John were watching T.V when the news came
on, showing a man standing on a bridge about to commit suicide.
JOKE (1)
Yesterday was the saddest day in my life. I was at a park when I saw a woman seriously complaining about her stolen phone.
So I went near her to listen to what she was saying.. I was also downloading something with my phone at that same time..

YOU HAVE ALL IT TAKES TO MAKE IT (Part 1)
“Whether
you think you can or you can’t , you are right” ~ Henry Ford
Why do
you lament that don’t have the money of the connection needed to make it? When
all you needed to make it is within you.
ONE YEAR TO LIVE
Anthony
Burgess was 40years old when he learnt that he had only one year to live. He
had a brain tumour that would kill him
within a year. He knows he had a battle on his hands. He was completely broke
at that time and didn’t have anything to live behind for his wife, Lynne, who
will soon become a widow.
CHALLENGE YOURSELF
“The
biggest change you will have is to challenge your own self-doubt and your
laziness” ~ Robert
Kiyosaki
Most
times as individuals, we never challenge ourselves. We just love the “status
quo” that is we love our situations the way they are and we don’t want
to change them.

THE NIGERIA OF MY DREAM
Before going
to bed, I had to eat something. I opened the fridge and yes, every foodstuff
inside my fridge had turned into block; the light had been on for eight years
without going off. I finished eating and went to bed.
IF OPPORTUNITY DOESN’T KNOCK, BUILD A DOOR
A famous motivational speaker once said, “If
opportunity doesn’t knock, build a door”
Most people complain of lack of
opportunities. Some attribute it to lack of money. Some will say it’s due to
their parental background. To some people, they claim it’s due to their
educational qualification. If only they were graduates with a Bachelors or
Masters Degree, they would have been very successful and achieve their dreams.
STAND UP FOR YOUR INTEGRITY
This is
a story of a man known as Joshua, he was a Christian in a local congregation.
He was very devoted and committed to the things of God. Joshua was punctual and
regular to service, he was a church worker and in charge of the church
instruments and maintenance.

ACTION IS THE REAL MEASURE OF INTELLIGENCE
“Action is the real measure of
intelligence” ~ Napoleon
Hill
No matter how good your decisions may be, they
must be backed up with positive actions, if not, they are just a waste of time.
For
about a week now, I have been doing marketing for my business. I got to this
school and introduced my bulk sms service to them. The Proprietor said, “I have
been hearing about bulk sms, but I don’t really understand it. Can you quickly
do a practical on it by sending a text to my phone?”
I
agreed. I quickly brought out my blackberry phone, asked for his phone number,
opened my bulksms site and sent him a message. He was impressed and without
wasting time, we went into further negotiations.
The
truth is, you don’t need to tell people that you are intelligent, they will
know by the actions you are taking. You claim to be intelligent in school,
graduated with a first class degree, have never failed any exams.
Now the question is what are the positive
actions you are taking towards achieving your dreams?
The
only thing that separates your decision from reality is action. Whatever you
desire to get, whatever position you desire to attain, hardwork will take you
there.
Listen
to Nore Roberts “If you don’t go after what you want, you will never have it. If you
don’t ask, the answer is always no, if you don’t step forward, you are always
in the same place”
Did you
get that? Go after what you want. What stops you from achieving your dreams? Laziness is the answer. The
earlier you starts working hard towards making your dream a reality, the better
for you.

5 TIPS NEEDED TO BUILD SELF-CONFIDENCE
Do
you have belief in yourself? Self confidence is the belief or trust you have in
yourself, it is the idea that you can make it.
Sometimes,
you ask yourself this question, “Can I take this step?” by doubting yourself
means you won’t take that step? This type of self doubt means that you lack the
confidence in yourself.
Tips to
building Self-confidence
1. Identify your
insecurities: Insecurity is the lack of
trust in yourself or in your relationship with people. Look intently at
yourself. Fish out where you lost your confidence. Is it because of the
enormous task ahead or the risk of taking it? If it is the task, just tell
yourself, “I can overcome the arduous
task?” Don’t be weighed down by what you know you can do; it will only require
a lot of effort and dedication.
2. Trust and believe
in yourself: Trust is when you have believe in someone or when you have
confidence in people. You choose to trust people; no one forces you to believe
someone else. But you choose who you are
to trust. So if you can trust others, why not trust yourself? Why not believe
in your ability and capability? There is something you can do very well. Do not
look down on yourself, rather take that bold step, it is by taking that step,
that your confidence starts building.
3. Look in the Mirror
and smile:
The only object that has a clear view of
you; your shape, size, height is your mirror. I am sure you have mirrors in
your house. So stand in front of it, look at your beautiful and handsome self,
look deep inside, the goal, the gift hidden in you, imagine yourself on higher
ground and smile at your image in the mirror.
See the beautiful and elegant
smile, fresh chin, smile again and appreciate the work of nature in you.
If your life can give you the beautiful you, then there is a beautiful and
precious gift inside you, why not work towards it?
4. Move with morale-boosting
friends:
A famous saying goes, “Show me your friends and I will tell you who you are”.
Yes, the kind of friends you move with determine who you are or will become. If
you run around with corrupt friends, you will become corrupted. Therefore, move
around with bold and ambitious people. People who always inspire you towards
achieving your dream.
5. Avoid
perfectionism: You can’t attain perfectionism, so you don’t try to chase it. No
one is perfect, everyone has his/her flaws, but you can get better. Everybody
makes mistakes but it is stupid to repeat the same mistake.
So believe in yourself, correct your
mistakes, move with the right people who inspires you towards bringing out the
next. Don’t aim for perfection, rather keep improving on yourself. Smile and
say to yourself, “I can make it”.

OUR WORST FEAR
“Take
the first step in faith, you don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take
the first step” ~ Martin
Luther King Jr
Our
worst fear is failure, and most
people live under the shadow of failure that they are so scared of failing that
they don’t take any risk at all.
But listen to me, our worst fear shouldn’t be failure but “How do you rise each time you fail?”
You must understand that failure happens to everyone but
real successful people are those who rose up whenever they encountered failure
and kept trying until they achieved success.
If you have failed before or even failed many times, then
don’t be afraid anymore, rather think of how to rise each time you fail.
I had tasted the bitter pill of failure that I am not scared
of failing anymore. All I just do is to take that bold step and if I fail I try
again and if I succeed, I proceed to take another step.
So today, like a snail,
you must come out of your shell if you must get to where you are going. Don’t
be scared of failure anymore.
Ralph Waldo Emerson advised,
“Do
the things you fear and the fear of death is certain”

WHERE ARE YOU GOING?
It was Abraham Lincoln that said, “The
world stand aside for any man to pass who knows where he is going”
Now,
the question for today is where are you going? Most people always say that they
haven’t achieve anything, others would day that they haven’t achieve their
dream. Now ask them, “What is their dream? You will be surprised that most of
them don’t even have a dream.
Listen
to Lawrence .J. Peters, “If you don’t know where you are going, you
will probably end up somewhere else”.
So I
challenge you today to have a dream. Write it down. Set daily goals. Write them
down where you can always read it. The point is he knew where you are going.
Lets
take a close study at the life of Abraham Lincoln. He became the president of
America at age sixty(60). He failed more than 11 times. He was born in extreme
poverty, but he never gave up all because he knows where he was going. He ended
up becoming one of America’s greatest presidents who helped to keep America
united during the civil war.
The
bottom line is ask yourself this question, “Where am I going?” What do I really
want to achieve?” once you have discovered it, then give everything towards
achieving it”
I will end with this quote from Martin Luther King Jnr that, “If
you haven’t found what you will die for, then you are not fit to live.

INITIATOR NOT IMITATOR
“It is
better to die in originality than to succeed in imitation” ~ Herman
Melville
You
were created as an original being, formed in the image and likeness of God. You
are unique and one of a kind. Stop
wishing you were someone else !!!!
Appreciate
what God has made you to be and start developing the gifts God has given you.
You are a unique blend of gifts and character and you have a special purpose on
earth. This you must know.
Long
before you were conceived by your mother, God knew you already. He had formed
you and destined what you were born to be. God carefully chose your race, sex,
skin colour and your physique.
He
carefully planned for you and deposited in you the gifts, talents, skills that
you possess. You are neither an accident nor a coincidence.
So
today, refuse to copy anybody. Be an INITIATOR,
and not an Imitator. Think and
come up with your own ideas.
William Albright said, “The
man who follow the crowd will never be followed by a crowd”
So
step out of the crowd and take the lead. Be an initiator!

TRUST GOD COMPLETELY
One day, a
man planted a tree as ask God for rain to help it grow and God send rain. Next,
he prayed for sunshine and God sent sunshine. Finally, he prayed for frost to
strengthen its branches and God sent that too, but the tree died.
Greatly
upset, the man decided to consulted
Master gardener. “I ordered all the right things to make it grow, what
went wrong?” he asked. The gardener took him aside and showed him his own
garden, filled with healthy plants and trees.
Listen to
the gardener, “When I plant a garden, I ask God to send whatever I feels it
needs. I figure he knows best”
Most of us
are like the man in the above story. When we pray, we tell God what we want
rather than what God wants for us. Most times we act like instructors,
instructing God and telling him what to do.
Why can’t we
just be like the master gardener in the story. Submit totally to the will of
God, trust Him completely for He knows what is best for our idea.
For you to
live a fulfilled life, you must trust God completely, submit totally to His
will for He knows what is best for your life.

YOU CAN MAKE AN IMPACT
One of
my favourite motivational story talks about a man who wanted to make an impact
on the world. As a young man, he wanted to change the world but he couldn’t.
Days passed by, months passed by and years rolled past and he kept pondering on
how to make an impact.
But now
an old man, he discovered himself and realized that he would had started by
making an impact on his family, his family would make an impact on his
community, his community would affect his town, his town would make an impact
on his city. His city would impact the country and his country would change the
world.
Now, as
an old man, the only person he could change was himself and if he had worked on
himself many years ago, he would had made an impact.
So if
you want to make a change and affect the world positively, start with yourself.
And when others see the change in you, they will want to be like you, others
will ant to be like them and gradually, you are making an impact.
Don’t
look too far, speak to that friend of yours, your colleague, coursemate, boss,
leader, siblings, parents, start be impacting their lives.
Yes,
you can make an impact.
