Self Improvement

  • 5 Reasons Why You Should Be Responsible For Your Life

    Life is what you make of it. If you make it happy you will enjoy happiness. If you make it boring you will definitely be bored; make it positive and you will live a positive life. You take out of life what you give it, nothing less and nothing more.

    In other words, you are responsible for your own life. You are responsible for creating the life that you want. You can chart the course of your life. No one has the right to prescribe what your life should be or look like, without your permission. This is your birth right and your responsibility.

    Quit blaming people for what you do not have or have not achieved and start doing something about it. If you are miserable you are solely responsible for ensuring that you change it.

    In the first place, you must realise that you are the one who got yourself where you are, based on the decisions and choices you have made.

    This is what many people do not realise, that it is everyone’s responsibility to make decisions that will help chart their own lives.

    Instead, they wait for someone to come and make decisions for them and they end up waiting for eternity or continue living a life that is controlled by other people.

    Do you realise that every decision you make has an immediate or future influence on your life? Your life is made of the small decisions and choices you make every day.

    That is why it is important to make the right decisions and choices that have a long lasting and positive influence on your life.

    As human beings, we have a tendency of turning a blind eye to facing the reality of making those tough decisions and choices. Especially, if the decisions will lead to some temporary setbacks. This is a bad habit that must be broken.

    If you do not make the decision to resolve certain problems, they have a way of showing up in the nearest future. It could just be the reason why certain things are going wrong in your life. Have the courage to make decisions and learn to live with the consequences.

    Do not shy away from making those uncomfortable hard decisions that could make or break your life. Do not allow people to take away your responsibility for your own life.

    Take Control of Your Destiny

    The results of being responsible for your life are many. When you are in control of your life, you also control your destiny. You decide what is good for you and what is not good for you.

    You decide what your life should look like, what direction it should take and what it should be. In other words, you are the captain of your life.

    Sometimes things will not go accordingly, but you will be absolutely pleased that you are responsible for everything that happens to your life because you made the decisions and choices yourself. The other thing you will take away is that you will have no one, but you to blame.

    Instead, you will find solutions to fix your current inadequacies and correct the situation. Equally, when you succeed you will take all the credit.

    Well, you know how it feels to be credited with success. This is what makes life worth living for, the ability to make adjustments and decisions that help propel your life forward.

    It doesn’t mean that things will be easy when you are in control, No. But it motivates you to do even more things that make you happy. You set your own goals and move at your own pace.

    Experience Personal Freedom

    Every good thing comes with a responsibility. Being responsible is a requisite for personal freedom. It’s an expression of personal freedom and signifies maturity. It is a good measure to use as a self-check to achieve personal development and self-improvement.

    There was a time son was learning about his rights as a child at school. One day when he came back home from school he was very excited to tell me about his rights, I asked him to list them down one by one.

    What I noticed is that he was not told by the teacher that to every right there is a responsibility. He was only told one side of the story.

    I got his list and also wrote down the responsibilities that go with the rights he had listed down. It then dawned on him that to every right he has, there is also a requirement to take responsibility in order to enjoy them rightfully.

    I think that is the way life should be. Personal freedom and responsibility go hand in hand. If you want to enjoy the freedom you must take responsibility for it.

    We must ensure that we put in place things that will enhance our freedom without infringing on other people’s freedoms. We must learn to coexist as human beings.

    Accountability

    Accountability is “responsibility to someone or for some activity.” If you are married you are responsible and accountable to your spouse. Yes, it is your responsibility to be accountable. I know that most men do not want to be accountable to their wives. But it is our responsibility and duty to do that.

    I believe that we are all accountable to one another not only to our spouses but to the community at large. How we live our lives is a reflection of how accountable we are.

    How then, can you be accountable if you are not in charge of your own life? I am a Christian and believe that one day God will ask us to give an account for our lives.

    Being accountable is being responsible. If you work for an Audit or Law firm you are taught to account for your time by way of filling in a timesheet on a regular basis.

    You have to be in control of your time because every minute you spend on a file is charged to the client. This is just one way of asking you to be responsible with your time. You do not want to overcharge a client and you also want to give the best advice or service possible.

    A Sense of Belonging

    You feel a sense of appreciation when you are contributing to a just cause. You can only contribute more when you are in control of yourself. Those who are totally in charge of their lives contribute more positively to society than those who are not in control of themselves.

    As you may well know, human beings are social by nature. Belonging is the feeling of security and support when there is a sense of acceptance, inclusion and identity for a member of a certain group. We all strive to be accepted socially because that is in our nature.

    Creating genuine feelings of belonging is a critical factor in improving engagement and performance. You should not trade your acceptance to a group by giving up your responsibility for your life. You have the power and will to choose what type of relationships to belong to.

    It Is Your Duty

    Your life is your responsibility. It is your duty to look after it and do what you feel is right with it. At the end of the day, it is you who will be answerable for it to your creator. You will stand in the “dock” and be answerable for how you spent it. What you did with it.

    Taking responsibility is acknowledging that you are taking control of your life, it is telling your friends and the world that you are in charge and not your spouse, father, mother, or anyone else.

    It brings out the best in you. It is your duty and your birthright to be in charge of yourself.

    Conclusion

    One of the most important aspects of taking responsibility for your life is that you will live your life according to your will. No one will live it for you and everything you accomplish will be duly credited to you.

    No one will take away the joy and the happiness you will experience. Make sure you are responsible for your life.

  • The 6 Success Attitudes to Develop In Life

    Attitude towards life is the difference between success and failure. Those that are more successful are always optimistic and passionate, they exhibit positive characteristics.

    They are happier and more enthusiastic about life. They carry an aroma of positivity and are always looking forward to the next challenge.

    Whereas, those that are less successful are negative minded and are less enthusiastic about life. They are generally, less ambitious.

    It is, therefore, a given that if you have to be successful you must develop a much more positive attitude towards life. You must always have the zeal for taking your life to another level.

    You must never be “content” with what you have and where you are, you must always be on the lookout to maximise the available opportunities that will help improve your life.

    What then do you need to drive your motivation? Well, for starters you need to replace the attitudes that are bringing you down with the following:-

    Do the Best With Your Ability

    We are all gifted differently and believe me you have more talent and ability than you think you have. They say the biggest obstacle to your success is yourself.

    We limit ourselves by thinking in a box; by thinking that we do not have enough ability to succeed.

    Winners on the other hand don’t go into games with a second-best or not good enough mentality.

    They go into games with the sole purpose of winning. They have a champions mentality and attitude. They refuse to concede defeat.

    Instead, they learn from their mistakes when confronted by failure. They take opportunities with both hands.

    It is important that you do your very best with the opportunity that you have been given because your destiny is dependent on how well you handle your current opportunity.

    The lessons learned now could come in very handy as you progress with your life. They may not seem to be as much for now, but they could be valuable in the near future.

    Take Responsibility for Your Actions

    Personal growth and self-improvement are about taking responsibility for your actions, not only the good ones but also the not so good ones. The ones you would want to hide from people.

    You cannot grow when you do not take responsibility because success comes with responsibility. If you do not want to be responsible you have no business seeking success.

    Because the more successful you are, the more responsibility you take. Accepting responsibility is an attitude that should be developed.

    Most of the time people do not want to take responsibility for their actions. They are always looking for someone to blame when things have gone wrong or are going the other way.

    They only want to take responsibility when things are good or are going the right way.

    Unfortunately, life demands that we take responsibility for every action that we make and face the consequences of those actions.

    The attitude of taking responsibility is a sign of maturity and takes your leadership skills to another level.

    Taking responsibility makes you accountable. When you are accountable you are conscious of what you do. You take actions that will not negatively affect your life.

    Have Faith in Your Abilities

    If only you can believe in your abilities the sky is not the limit. If you want to achieve even more with your life, develop the attitude of believing in your abilities.

    Trust what you can be and what you can do. The more you trust in your abilities the more likely you are to improve on them.

    The more likely you are to take in more complex and demanding tasks that are even more beneficial to your success.

    Having faith in your ability is the first step to almost guaranteeing your success. The measure of faith you have in your abilities will drive you to keep moving forward.

    Because of your faith, you will treat failure as a temporary setback. You will rise up even higher when you fall and nothing will stand in your way.

    Be Prepared for Victory

    When you are working on something, be sure that you are expecting to win. We fail to handle victory because we are not prepared for it.

    Most of the time we are not even expecting to be victorious. Successful people are always prepared for what’s coming and they know that victory is coming.

    How prepared are you to face victory? What will you do when you succeed? Bear in mind that victory does not just come it is earned.

    You don’t just wake up and BOOM you are victorious, no, you work hard for it and most of the times victory does not just come at the first attempt.

    It takes a lot of patience, persistence and smart hard work to achieve good things. Look, if it was easy to be successful we would all have been successful, each one of us.

    Your desire should be to win and you should develop a winning mentality and a never give up attitude.

    Don’t Doubt Yourself

    Doubt is a negative emotion or feeling. When you doubt you attract negativity.

    To achieve positive results you need an attitude of self-belief. Self-belief is what fuels your motivation to do even more.

    You should believe in yourself for everything that you are doing and intend to do.

    Doubtful thoughts must not be allowed to dominate or cloud your mind. Stay focused and concentrate on the task at hand.

    To eliminate doubt in your life try this principle “if you think you can do it, just do it.” The more you do, the more confidence you develop.

    What you want in life is to be confident with yourself. To be confident that you are doing the right thing and are on the right path to success.

    Challenge Yourself to Do More

    Success is measured by the many challenges one has overcome. The more challenges you overcome the more successful you are.

    Life is generally full of challenges. We are constantly navigating through challenges every day. But if you want to achieve more with your life you need to challenge yourself to do more than the average person.

    You are only as successful as your previous challenge nothing more and nothing less. Every new day comes with it many different challenges and the onus is on you to overcome them.

    Your responsibility as a human being is to have an attitude of doing more with your life. Look, if you can move from point A to point B then you can move to point C and point D.

    If you stop at point B you will never see and experience point C and beyond. There is more to experience out there. When you keep pushing yourself, you will definitely achieve more with your life.

    When you move from one point to another, you have the chance and are privileged to experience the goodness of that place for as long as you possibly can.

    The biggest difference between the less successful people and the more successful ones is that the latter have developed an attitude to keep challenging themselves to do more.

    Conclusion

    In everything that you do, the attitude, you exhibit will always be a driving factor in determining how far you will go in achieving your intended life’s purpose.

    You must, therefore, endeavour to develop a positive attitude for your life. Until next time develop the attitude of a champion.

  • 4 Things You Need to Become Self-Reliant

    Nature dictates that we move from point “A” to point “B” and from point “B” to point “C” and so on and so forth. However, movement does not entail success nor does it imply growth. 

    Even if we do not make a deliberate decision to move we will move anyway because that’s the nature of life.

    If you do not make a deliberate decision to grow, that movement will likely not be the ideal one. It will usually amount to flowing with the wind. Most likely you would be in the wrong direction until you get a hold of yourself.

    If you want positive change and improvement you need to make deliberate decisions and take action. You need to be in control of your movements. Don’t just flow with life. Direct the steps of your life.

    It is your responsibility to make sure that you move in the direction you want. No one owes you anything and you do not owe anyone anything.

    Remember that God gave you a responsibility to look after your life. From the time you are born, you are created to be a self-reliant being. Even as a small child, you are generally responsible for your well-being.

    Even though we are dependant on one another we still live as independent souls and are solely responsible for ourselves. The sooner you realise that you are in charge of the growth process for your life the better.

    Assume Responsibility

    Responsibility is what makes the difference in life. It is what defines growth. People who are responsible for themselves experience more happiness and experience more, enjoy life in general as compared to those who are less responsible.

    We are all created to be responsible for looking after this world and together we will be answerable for what we did or did not do. Even in the early days, Adam was commanded to have dominion over all living creatures. Remember this is a command and there was no choice.

    It, therefore, follows and it is a given, that we must be responsible for our actions. For how can you have dominion without responsibility? Having dominion comes with responsibility.

    Assuming responsibility is the beginning of Self-Improvement and Personal Development. If you are serious about personal development and growth, you need to grow your responsibility traits. 

    You need to step up and be the responsible person you ought to be. Yes, I know that sometimes it may be difficult. But that’s what life is all about. If it was easy everyone would have achieved greater success and life would be boring.

    What makes life worth living is the fact that we keep challenging ourselves to reach greater heights. It’s the fact that we are never satisfied with our current achievements. 

    Some of these if not most of life’s challenges require us to have an even greater sense of responsibility. Therefore, if you shy away from taking responsibilities you may just be hindering your growth as a person. 

    Be Informed

    We live in the information age. You need to be up to date with what you want to achieve. Be it general information or information that will directly have a bearing on your expected outcome.

    Create reliable sources of information that you can tap into to feed your needs as and when the need arises. 

    Without being properly informed you are most likely going to perform below par and this may affect your results. However, with the correct information at your disposal you will make better-informed decisions that will go a long way to enhance productivity and there on it will show in the results.

    Becoming self-reliant requires that you make use of the information in your hands. Do not just gather information for the sake of it. Gather the right information and make use of it. 

    Learn how to manipulate the data to your advantage, by this I mean in the right way that does not injure others. 

    There are many sources of information out there the biggest one is social media via the internet. The internet is a hive of activities and so caution must be made on the authenticity of your sources.

    If you have to stay informed you must also learn to spend a considerable amount of your time reading and learning. I believe that success consists of more learning and practising what you have learned.

    There is no use gathering information that you do not intend to put to good use. Most of the information out there may not be of use to your plans, so be careful with what you are looking for.

    Know Where You Are Going

    For, how can you be self-reliant without having to know what you want to achieve? Everyone in life has a purpose and it is your duty to find out exactly what you want to achieve with your life. The unfortunate thing and the reality is, that many of us do know our God-given purpose. 

    The need to know where you are going in life cannot be overemphasised. Formulate an action plan that you intend to follow through and keep working on it every day.

    Keep reminding yourself of what you want to achieve in life, frequently. This will help keep you motivated and make sure that you are doing the things that will help advance you towards your goal.

    The people you meet along the way are there to play a role in your life. However, not everyone is useful all the time. Some people you meet for a certain period and never see again.

    In life, you need to identify the people that add value to your goals. So whilst you have them around utilise them and get as much as possible from them. 

    Some people will not add value to your life but instead will draw you backwards. Learn to create the right relationships that will last for a long time. Relationships that are of mutual benefit to both.

    Make Your Own Decisions

    You are not self-reliant if you cannot make your own decisions. Have you noticed that you are most happy with the good results that come out of the decisions that you make on your own than those made on your behalf?

    There’s just something that makes you glow when you look back and say wow so all this is because of the decisions and actions I took. 

    When a decision is made by someone else on your behalf it takes away that pride feeling and believe me, all the credit goes to the one who made the decision and not you.

    Decision-making enhances your level of responsibility. Which is a critical part if you want to be self-reliant. 

    Conclusion

    Becoming self-reliant is what you should aim for, in your life. In as much as we live in an interdependent world self-reliance is also an important part of personal development and self-growth.  

  • Don’t Give Up on Yourself, You Have a Second Chance

    Every day you wake up you are presented with a chance to impress. Not only yourself or your peers but the world at large.

    God always gives us a second chance to redeem ourselves. He knows that we are not perfect and that we are far from being perfect.

    He is such a merciful and wonderful God that he always gives us a second chance at life. That is why we should never give up when we are faced with temporary setbacks. 

    No matter what you have done or have not done in life, just know that there is always a second chance at life. 

    No one should deceive you that you can never get up and make it. Life has given us all an equal opportunity to succeed. Yes, some may seem like they are ahead. 

    But, no they are not, your time is coming if you can work it out, you will achieve your goals. They say that being ahead does not mean you will arrive first.

    You are not in competition with anyone. You are here to live your own life. You are not responsible for someone else’s life but yours alone.

    At the end of the day, you will be accountable for what you have done or have not done with your life. Not for anyone else but yours alone.

    Get Up and Get Going

    We all fall down at one point or another and that’s what life is, the only thing you can do when you fall is to get up and get going again. 

    When you are faced with adversity don’t be discouraged. When things are not going your way don’t give up. When you try and it seems there is no way, just keep pushing. Sometimes life gives you the unexpected.

    Those who succeed are those who never give up. Those who achieve more are those who overcome adversities. Those who live to tell the greatest stories are those who have been bruised and have overcome many adversities. 

    Remember that, it is impossible to move forward if you do not get up after you fall. Do not remain down, get up quickly and figure out what went wrong and resolve how to correct your current pitfalls.

    Learn from your failures and always make sure that, you avoid the same mistakes. Failure teaches us the things that we should not do. That is why I always say don’t be afraid to fail. It is part of the growth process.  

    If you are in a devious situation and you think that it’s the end of the world, you are mistaken there are many people out there in even more precarious situations than you are faced with.

    Maybe you don’t know that there is always someone in a much worse condition than you, you should know that today.

    Look at what you want to achieve. There is more that lies ahead of you than what you have accomplished so far. There is still more that needs to be done. 

    Look, God is not done with you, for as long as you have the breadth of life. He still has use for your life. So, get up and go and fulfil your God-given dreams.

    You Could Be the Solution

    The world is in need of people who come to offer solutions to the many challenges being faced. You could just be the answer to someone’s problems. 

    Always be ready to take advantage of what’s coming ahead no matter how little. Be prepared when the chance comes through. You do not want to be a statistic but counted among the people who contributed the most.

    Sometimes, we get discouraged or think that we can only contribute small things. But do you realise that it is the small contributions that make the big ones?

    Every effort you put into doing something does not go unnoticed. It may not mean as much for now but the more effort you make the closer you move to achieve your success.

    Your small contributions done regularly will result in big contributions. Don’t shy away and think that your contributions are not needed or do not count. Every small contribution when added up amounts to something significant.

    Small as they may seem they could just be the final bits to achieve success or help out someone. Remember that a journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. So take that step and begin the journey.

    Every step you take or make moves you closer to your target. Yes, sometimes you may deviate but ultimately with persistence and hard work you will achieve your goals.

    If you do not take action, nothing will change and nothing will be accomplished or achieved.

    You cannot just sit back and hope that things will work themselves out. You need to work them out yourself. Play your part and leave what you cannot do to God Almighty.

    Have Faith in Yourself

    Faith is what keeps us going. Faith is the evidence of things to come. Without faith there is very little we can accomplish. 

    You cannot achieve much if you don’t have faith in yourself. You cannot claim to have faith in God whom you have not seen and you have no faith in yourself, whom you see and feel every day.

    Create an atmosphere of having faith in your abilities even when the task at hand seems impossible. Remember the bible says “I can do all things possible through Christ who gives me strength.” 

    Have Faith that God will give you the strength to achieve your goals. But don’t just end at having faith. Back up your faith with your works.

    You can have as much faith as you want but without works, it amounts to nothing. The Bible says “faith without works is nothing.”

    The more faith you have, the more you will overcome what comes ahead of you. The more involved you are the more opportunities are created and presented to you. 

    Action creates opportunities. So the more action the more opportunities the less action the fewer the opportunities. 

    Develop an attitude of having faith in yourself and that the sky’s not the limit. If you believe you can do it, just go ahead and do it.

    Conclusion

    Life is dynamic and demands that we keep pressing to achieve our goals. Nothing comes on a silver platter. We work for our own breakthroughs and miracles by doing what is right. If you do not act, nothing will happen, life will pass you by.

  • The Six Qualities of Self-Development

    “The highest reward for a person’s toil is not what they get for it, but what they become by it.” ~ John Ruskin.

    We all have it in ourselves to develop to our fullest potential, whether in a relationship; work; family; sport; whatever.

    Each and every one of us is engineered to develop and reach our utmost potential. But then why is it that most of the people remain without even reaching half of their potential?

    To achieve your goal requires a mix of qualities, mindset, and behaviours; remember that all “growth is from within.”

    Here are my six most important qualities. Please take note that the qualities listed here are not in any particular order.

    Ability – Align with Your Purpose

    My first quality is ability. In life, you will have a tough time achieving your full potential if you try to do something you are not gifted for.

    If you set out to achieve your personal intended life’s purpose ensure that you are doing the right things with the right abilities.

    Thankfully, our almighty God the creator gave us all the right abilities to prosper and succeed in achieving our goals.

    It is, therefore, important that you know what your life’s purpose is. For example, you cannot succeed at being a sportsman when God engineered you to be a musician.

    The level of success you will attain in being a sportsman will be far less than the level you would have achieved had you been on the right path.

    You will spend more energy trying to succeed at being a sportsman than being a musician. Know your life’s purpose.

    Attitude – The Catalyst for Success

    The second quality and I guess my favourite is attitude. I say attitude is the mother of all success.

    Attitude is the beginning and endpoint of all self-development work. Without the right mental attitude of positive self-belief, you will not achieve anything of significant importance in life. With the right mental attitude everything is possible.

    “I can do all things possible in Christ Jesus who strengthens me”~ the Bible.

    I personally regard attitude as key to personal development and success.

    You may have all the necessary tools and equipment laid before you (which are actually endowed in you), but with a wrong attitude, you will not succeed.

    With the right and positive attitude, the sky is the limit. Many of us have a wrong attitude towards life especially when we are faced with challenges.

    Instead of seeing opportunities presented in the challenge we focus on the problem. Those who succeed see opportunities in the challenges they face. Stop crying over spilled milk and rise above the challenge.

    You cannot change the situation but at least you can control how the situation affects you. Charles Swindoll says “I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it.”

    Faith – The Strength of Inner Belief

    What is faith? “It is the demonstration of hope for things not yet seen.”“Faith is like a bird that feels dawn breaking while it is still dark”~ Scandinavian Proverb.

    I will give an example of Christianity. We believe that there is God even though we have never seen him. The bible encourages us to have faith. I believe that faith distinguishes those who realise their full potential from those that don’t.

    In fact, the strength of your self-belief is the one thing that determines if you can move mountains or foothills. But having self-belief or faith is not an easy task.

    One of the best ways to help improve your faith is to talk positively to yourself during a task. Even when the going gets tough tell yourself “I can do all things possible through  Christ Jesus, who strengthens me” these are magic words.

    Believe me, you will not know what strength you can derive just by saying the above words. It has worked wonders for me and so it will work for you.

    The subject of faith is a very broad one and I would encourage you to read the bible frequently to help you get inspired and increase your faith.

    Courage – Stepping into the Unknown

    “…..be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” ~ the Bible.

    This was actually a command God was giving to Joshua. It is easy to start the process of self-development, but much harder to keep it going especially when things are not going our way.

    When the odds are against you that is when you need to summon your courage to see you through. The journey to success is a personal one and so is the courage and will to succeed.

    The difference between highly successful individuals is measured by how much courage they have to undertake certain risks.

    Most people fail before they even start, especially in business because they have no courage to rise up when the tide rises higher than anticipated.

    When you fail at the first attempt relax and evaluate your failure and try again until you have it right. Do not settle for failure.

    “It is not the mountain we conquer but ourselves” ~ Sir Edmund Hilary.

    Chance – Creating Your Own Luck

    The combination of qualities of personal development such as ability, self-belief, and awareness are the factors that produce what I call “luck.”

    Scientists believe that there are no random accidents. Everything that happens to us is a result of our mental self-belief and our physical actions.

    We as human beings all have more or less the same chances. The difference is how we see and utilise those chances when they come around.

    In a football team where competition for numbers is high, the players will work hard during training to impress the manager so as to be named in the starting line-up.

    When this opportunity comes it is up to the player to embrace it with both hands and prove to his manager that he is worth being in the team. This is also true with life.

    If you prepare yourself opportunities will always come forth. It is entirely upto you to make good of them.

    Perseverance – Embracing the Lifelong Journey

    There are no shortcuts or hacks to self-development that I know of. I challenge anyone to help me find one.

    The only route I know to self-development is a combination of the above qualities mentioned coupled with perseverance and personal experience.

    All personal growth follows a similar route which has its own momentum and takes its own time.

    There is no success without perseverance. With persistence and perseverance comes the breakthrough to reaching our intended life’s purpose.

    Remember that success is not a destination but a lifelong journey.

    Conclusion

    I hope and trust that you have learned something from the above article. Self-development is not a race neither is it a competition.

    You are what you think. Having a positive mind is one sure way to achieving self-development.

    The above qualities are only a guide and they are the ones that I use. There are many other qualities that you can learn and improve yourself.

  • The Confidence to Perform Comes from Within

    Confidence is “The state of mind characterized by one’s reliance on himself or his circumstances; a feeling of self-sufficiency; such assurance as leads to a feeling of security; self-reliance;” – Webster’s Revised Unabridged Dictionary.

    Confidence is a powerful catalyst for self-improvement and personal development. It fuels your journey, empowering you to take bold steps toward your goals. Embrace it fully, and watch how it transforms challenges into opportunities for growth.

    Without confidence, one cannot be expected to achieve much or overcome the impossible. The people who go on to be successful are those who exude confidence in their lives.

    It is what fuels us to go out and do more even when the odds are against us; When the chips are down.

    When you are full of confidence you are fired up and charged for success. You have in you the unwavering belief that what you are doing will succeed.

    The amount of confidence you have will surely determine how far you will go with a task. This will also have an effect on how far you are willing to go in your life.

    If you are lacking in confidence you will definitely give up the first time you hit a huddle. You will have many excuses just to find a way of not continuing.

    Where Does Self-assurance Come From?

    You may be wondering and asking, how and where do people get the confidence they exude?

    Well, in as much as external stimuli has an influence on us, the final decision comes from inside. It is what you build inside that overflows outside.

    Everything you exhibit on the outside is a reflection of who you really are inside. If you are negative that’s just what you are, so be careful of what your mind feeds on.

    You cannot give what you do not have. Your character and behaviour are a direct reflection of who you are. Look, you cannot be peaceful if you do not have peace in your heart.

    Everything you are comes from the inside. Your confidence comes from the inside. It is what you have inside of you that will reflect on the outside.

    Take a seed, for example,  as small as it is, it grows into a big tree utilising resources from within.

    Of course, it is influenced by the conditions outside but all the growth comes from within itself. The growth does not come from outside. You can imagine the energy needed for it to shoot through the soil.

    Exactly the same with you and me. We are influenced by the conditions we face every day. But these do not have a final say on the outcome of our lives. We decide what course our lives will take by the choices and decisions we make.

    We make the final decisions and choices despite what we are confronted with. These decisions come from within. In other words, they are personal decisions. They are of your own volition.

    I always say you have a choice no matter what you are faced with. I do not believe in the saying that I had no choice, there is always one.

    How to Create and Maintain Confidence

    To move forward in life there is need to create and maintain a strong sense of self-belief. This is what will make and keep you pushing forward. Without it, you do not expect to achieve much with your life.

    But just how easy is it to generate and keep self-belief in the midst of life’s challenges?

    Well, it’s not easy for me. There are times when I feel like giving up. Sometimes It seems like I’m just shooting in the air.

    Here are a few things I do to help keep my confidence as high as possible:-

    • Set small achievable goals – this helps to keep me motivated when the targets are achieved. For some reason it makes me look forward to the next challenge. The smaller the target the easier it is to achieve. It is the small things that make the bigger ones when added up.
    • Look at the bigger picture – what do you want to achieve with your life? A reminder of what you want for your life should be big enough to generate enough motivation and confidence to help push you forward. If you want to achieve more you have no choice but to keep your confidence high.
    • Appreciate your small achievements – appreciating what you have conquered just gives you that feeling of being a superman. It just gives you the adrenaline to take on the next challenge. That is why I find it better to break down my goals into smaller tasks that are realistic and can easily be achievable.
    • Be optimistic and expectant – being optimistic and expectant usually produces positive results. When you are expectant you attract positive vibes.

    Maintain a Healthy Mind

    A healthy mind is key to success. Whatever you do in life starts in the mind.

    All your dreams and plans are birthed in the mind. There is nothing that is man-made that was not conceived in the mind.

    Your mental health plays a key role in your daily life. It is what makes or breaks you. You are what you think about most of the time.

    Your life is a reflection of the mental state of your mind. A Positive and successful life reflects a healthy and positive mind.

    It is, therefore, important that you keep a healthy mindset. Just like physical health, mental health is equally important actually very important.

    I have noticed that mental health is an area that is mostly neglected by many people. They concentrate on physical health a lot and neglect their mental health.

    A balanced and healthy mindset is the greatest asset you can ever have. The energy and willpower it generates are immeasurable.

    To keep a healthy mind ensure that you feed your mind the right stuff. Your mind is the get way to your success.

    Maintain Healthy Relationships

    Good healthy relationships are key to maintaining and improving your self-confidence your self-growth.

    When you have supportive relationships your confidence is high and you concentrate on achieving your goals. Remember what you want for your life is to achieve as many goals as you possibly can.

    Life is such that we are all dependent on one another. No one can survive alone. You like it or not, your survival is linked to someone else’s.

    Do not allow yourself to be in toxic relationships; they can be detrimental and sometimes fatal. If you in one find a way to sort it out.

    Make it a point that you take an audit of your current relationships, pay attention to those that add more value to your life.

    If need be, cut off those that are pulling you down. Those that are toxic and just drain you.

    Surround yourself more with people who have positive energy it rubs off. Soon you will be more positive as well.

    They say birds of the same feather flock together. The company you keep represents who you are.

    Conclusion

    To be confident is to show character that you are sure of what you want and are doing.

    It is to have a conviction that what you’re focused on is going to come to fruition. That nothing will stop you from achieving your goals.

    Above all confidence is a key ingredient to achieving your success. It is the source of the fuel that propels you to move forward.

  • How to Create a Long-Lasting Positive Self-Image

    “Life isn’t about finding yourself, life is about creating yourself” ~ George Bernard Shaw.

    Before we start please get a piece of paper and write down the answer to the following questions. What do you think about yourself, what do you think your friends, colleagues and peers think about you?

    The answers of course will vary from individual to individual and will reflect what you think you radiate and transmit to your associates and peers.

    Galileo Galilei once said “you cannot teach a man anything; you can only help him find it within himself.”

    What most of us do not know is that our positive spirit is the adventurer in us. It’s just a glimpse of what we are capable of doing. Yourself, image is the person you think you are. You are your own creation.

    When you carry a low self-image you attract into your life all the experiences and conditions that tell you how poor and pathetic you are.

    Conversely, when you are high in spirits you attract all the experiences telling you how great you are.

    When you have learned to form mental images of the conditions desired, it will be the easiest and quickest way to secure results; if not, results can be accomplished by argument, by the process of convincing yourself absolutely of the truth of your statement.

    Personal development and success have no room for a negative self-image. Which successful person have you ever seen carrying or putting on a low self-image?

    Have a Positive Mind

    “Whatever, the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve” ~ Napoleon Hill.

    Life requires us to put on a positive self-image. You see, everything begins with your mind. Have you ever noticed that when you have a positively inclined mind about something the results follow suit?

    If you have never observed this try to deliberately have a positive conscious mind about something good happening to you today.

    Believe me, just the thought will make you feel good and act positively.

    Imagine living in a society with positive-minded people. Individuals, who do not talk or act negatively towards each other, well it all starts with one person and that person is you.

    Creating a positive mind is one sure way of creating a positive self-image.

    With a positive self-image, even the people around you will be infected with it. This is the only disease you and I would be glad to spread.

    They will begin to treat you positively. Remember you attract what you think. The more ambitious and positive you think the more you attract those things that you will need to prosper.

    I agree that you may be distracted by temporal setbacks. But remember they are temporal and they offer us an opportunity to learn and grow from them.

    Imagine how boring life would be without challenges. Without having to sweat before sweet comes.

    Most of us especially the young generation, want to have sweet before we sweat. We want to cut corners and start enjoying good things where we did not sow, the end result is usually terrible.

    If God intended for us to enjoy everything at the same time he would have done that. But, then that’s not the case. That is why he gave us stages in life.

    First, you feed on your mother’s milk when you are a baby, before you graduate to feed on solids. You start small and as you learn to handle small things he increases your responsibilities.

    Some of us though, have remained and have not grown to handle larger responsibilities. This has mainly got to do with our mindset.

    Do you realise that we all have the same mind? It is the same mind that is in you and me. It is the same mind that has had great inventions.

    The difference between success and failure is how we have positioned our minds. What mental self-image do you carry in your mind?

    Having a positive mindset will definitely radiate a positive self-image.

    Act Positively

    They say actions speak louder than words. True to this is how you act in different situations.

    If you have to build a positive self-image then you have to act accordingly. Even when you have been challenged, be it physically or otherwise.

    A positive reaction attracts positive results. You cannot create a positive self-image just in your mind without reflecting on it.

    Your outward behaviour is a reflection or a mirror of your inner self. I always say that your outer reaction is an accumulation of your inner image.

    One always reveals themselves by how one reacts especially in challenging situations. Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks,

    Self-image can only be reflected by your actions. Therefore, it is very important to act positively if you have to create a positive self-image.

    Without action, there is no reaction. Imagine if all the great inventors did not act on their thoughts, we would not have been privileged to be using computers today later on the internet.

    Action is the key to every outcome. There would be no outcome without some action. Personal development and self-improvement requires us to act on the knowledge we accumulate.

    I don’t know about you but the knowledge I acquire is for sharing with the people I come into contact with including you reading this article. It is no use accumulating knowledge and not acting on it.

    The difference between success and failure is the lack of action or acting on the wrong side of the coin. Positive action will surely enhance your self-image.

    There are many situations that will come your way in life and will require your action. In this instance, your actions will be a reflection of your self-image.

    This is when it matters most, what you feed your mind. If your mind is not well fed it will be revealed. The bible says “as a man thinketh so is he in his heart.” Our thoughts are predominantly what we see, hear and read.

    “Watch your thoughts; they become your words. Watch your words; they become your actions. Watch your actions; they become your habits. Watch your habits; they become your character. Watch your character; it becomes your destiny” ~ Frank Outlaw.

    Renew Your Mind

    “You shall be transformed by the renewing of your mind” ~ the Bible.

    Nothing beats the renewing of your mind other than reading. It is by far the best way to renewing your mind. What you feed your mind is very important.

    From the time you are born to the time you grow up most of your character is a result of what has been fed to your mind.

    I will give an example if you grew up in a home where your parents fought every now and again you will most likely end up doing the same.

    It may not be your fault but your mind is conditioned that way. That is why it is important to feed your mind with the right stuff.

    If you are a parent PLEASE DO NOT DO ANYTHING, especially with your spouse that sends a wrong self-image in front of your children.

    Their minds are like cameras; they never forget easily. Remember that they learn from us. We, as parents, are responsible for nourishing their fragile minds.

    I have given myself a target of reading one personal development and self-growth book every month this is beside the bible of course.

    I know this is not much of a target but at least I feed my mind positively. Believe me, reading especially the bible, helps to build my mind which in turn helps develop my self-image.

    I have always emphasised in my previous articles the importance of reading. If there is anything that you will not leave anyone with on this earth when you die, it is knowledge.

    Therefore, when you acquire knowledge it is your choice whether to keep it to yourself or share it. Please don’t be self-fish learn to share so as to make this world a better place.

    I am only saying this to emphasise the need to read. The Bible says “By wisdom the earth’s foundation was formed.”

    Wisdom is gained through knowledge and the main source of knowledge is reading. You cannot make a wise decision without having the knowledge.

    “If a man empties his purse into his head, no man can take it away from him. An investment in knowledge always pays the best interest” ~ Benjamin Franklin.

    Conclusion

    Having a positive self-image can greatly accelerate your personal development and success process. We as human beings must always endeavour to improve our self-image after all we were created in the image of GOD.

    The more positive your self-image is the more confident you are, carrying about your daily life.

    This also gives you more confidence in achieving your, written-down life’s intended purpose. I know that there are many other ways that you can use to help improve your self-image. I would encourage you to take them one step at a time.

    Always remember that you are not in a race. Personal development is your own race and only move at the pace you set for yourself. You are not competing with anyone.

  • Why the Emotion of Fear is the Main Killer of Dreams

    Every normal and sane human being has dreams. Dreams of having a better and more successful life. 

    Dreams of having a life that is honourable and meaningful. One that is worthy and fulfilling. Dreams of living a legacy behind.

    However, you set out to achieve your dreams, is entirely your choice. It is your responsibility and it can never be transferred or delegated to someone else.

    Better still if you live to see your dreams through, is something that can only be driven by you alone. 

    Achieve your dreams and you will be in the category that everyone wants to be because most people have not lived to see their dreams fulfilled. 

    Equally, most people will never live to fulfill their dreams, not because they have no capacity but because they have been distracted by fear. 

    They have allowed the emotion of fear to defeat them. Look, fear is responsible for killing and delaying the attainment of many people’s dreams. 

    Those that are living their dreams are those that have boldly taken a step and are courageous to act. They have defeated the spirit of fear.

    “courage is the currency for success and fear is the currency for failure.”  So whatever currency you are trading in, more often than not, determines where you are in your life.

    If your major trading currency is “fear” you are probably where the majority of people are and if your major currency is “courage,” You are living your dream. If not you are on the right track.

    When you replace fear with courage, your results will definitely be the opposite of what you are experiencing now. You cannot get different results if you keep on doing the same things.

    Fear Is A Very Strong Emotion

    What is fear? “Fear is an emotion experienced in anticipation of some specific pain or danger (usually accompanied by a desire to flee or fight).” – Power Thesaurus.

    Fear is one of the strongest emotions among the 6 basic human emotions, which include happiness, sadness, anger, surprise, disgust and fear it self. 

    Because fear is such a strong emotion the human body’s reaction is to flee or rather engage in defensive mode.

    Usually, this emotion is triggered when the body feels threatened.

    However, fear is also defined as “a primal emotion that is important to survival and triggers a fight or flight response” – uwa. 

    Stronger emotions are usually very difficult to overcome. They tend to push us to do things that make us feel ‘safe’ or ‘comfortable.’ 

    This means trying by all means not to do the things that we think are going to cause us pain. Naturally, people do not want to be associated with or experience pain.

    But do you realise that you can never achieve your dreams without pain? I believe that the more pain you experience the sweeter the rewards. As the saying goes “no pain no gain.”

    If you avoid the road that leads you to temporary pain and decide to take the easier route the results will be different. You may enjoy success but I can guarantee you that it will not last a long time.

    Many of us are living substandard lives because we chose to take the easier route. The route that offers temporal success. 

    If only you can reroute your journey to take the road that has a little pain you will reap the rewards at the end of the road. It is never too late to make adjustments to your life. 

    Fear comes in two forms. There is “positive” and “negative” fear.

    Negative Fear

    This is fear that affects you in a negative way. Perhaps this is the most dangerous of the two.

    It is negative fear that is responsible for failure. When you experience negative fear your mind is just focused on the immediate solution for relief. Believe me most of the time, this is temporal relief.

    To make meaningful success with your life you must try by all means to suffer a little for a better future. Don’t be comfortable with the little relief that you may experience time and again. 

    Take advantage of the temporal relief to build on your future. If you concentrate only on temporal gratification you may end up missing your destiny. 

    Positive Fear

    This is the fear that drives you to success. The bible says “the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom” this is a positive statement and should be embraced.

    Positive fear has a lot of benefits. It makes you stick with your life’s plans. If you have to have fear, choose positive fear. 

    It Makes You Panic

    When you are gripped with fear there is a tendency to panic. It is a known fact that decisions made under fear are not usually the best.

    They are usually of a short-term nature and are not always sustainable in the long run. They are meant to get you out of a sticky situation almost immediately.

    I believe that the best decisions are made when you have peace of mind. When your mind is settled and un distracted. 

    Fear temporarily impairs your judgement. If you have to make a good judgement you must always make sure you postpone making important decisions to a later date. Avoid being in a hurry. 

    Defer them to a time when your mind is clear and focused. This way you will make decisions that will help you immensely. 

    It does not hurt to take time when making important personal life decisions that will impact your lively hood.

    Why should you not take time for a decision that will have more benefits for you? It is only reasonable and prudent that you take your time otherwise you may live to regret it.

    Fear Can Affect Your Health

    Even though fear prepares us to react to danger it is known to have a negative effect on people’s health. Fear has been known to weaken the immunity system.

    It also can interrupt processes in our brains that allow us to regulate emotions, read non-verbal cues and other information presented to us, reflect before acting, and act ethically. 

    This impacts our thinking and decision-making in negative ways, leaving us susceptible to intense emotions and impulsive reactions. All of these effects can leave us unable to act appropriately.

    Once your judgment is impaired you cannot make decisions that are long-lasting. Your primary focus is to get out of the current predicament at all costs. 

    Conclusion

    Do not allow the emotion of fear to be a disruption in your quest to achieve your life’s goals. Always find ways to overcome it and learn to move on. 

  • 5 Ways to Build Good Character for Yourself

    We all have skeletons in our closets. Some of the skeletons do not make us proud to look at. They remind us of the unpleasant bad past.

    There is no perfect individual on planet earth, non at all. Even the so-called righteous men and women of God have dark skeletons. Some are even, darker than can be imagined.

    However, there is room for all to live a changed life. What you did yesterday should not be allowed to discourage you from living a changed life.

    It should never be used as an excuse for refusing to do better. You can make a difference if you change the way of your life.

    You may not know it but we are role models for someone out there. Someone looks up to you. If you are a father or let me just say a parent, your children look up to you and it is your duty to bring them up in the right manner.

    I have made mistakes in my life, some of which am very embarrassed and ashamed to talk about. But you know what, I am ok with the mistakes because I cannot change them.

    I simply cannot change the past. I can only learn from the mistakes and move on and believe me, I have moved on and never going backwards.

    When I look back from where I’m coming from to where I am today, it can only be God and I am very grateful to him that he has allowed me to live a more decent and changed life.

    He has given me an opportunity for a fresh start. He has allowed me to write a new chapter in my life and I believe that there is a much bigger responsibility he has in stock for me.

    My focus for the remainder of my life is to help change the world for the better.

    Yes, there is so much more to work on, but my life is very different from what it was a few years back. I feel much more in control of myself and my well-being. It feels better to live like this.

    I feel God allows us to experience certain things for a reason. All those late nights I used to spend wasting away my life have helped me to stay late at night doing something constructive.

    You do not have to continue wasting your life away. You too can start living a positive and constructive life. There is room to change for all of us.

    Change the Way You Think

    They say an idle mind is the devil’s workshop. You cannot change your past. The past is nothing but history. However, you can change the course of your future by changing the way you think.

    All meaningful and long-lasting change begins with a changed mindset. If you want to see and experience significant change, start with your mind. Change your mind and begin to live a much more positive and happy life. Start where you are.

    Be the change you would like to see in the world. Stop complaining about things being wrong. Do something about them, fix them for goodness sake.

    Have you noticed that people who do not have much are always complaining about what they do have?

    Start from your home, if something is not being done properly do it yourself rather than complain. If your house is not being cleaned to your standards, clean it yourself.

    All am trying to say is that do something to change the status quo.

    The mind is the factory of what comes out. You are what you think about most of the time. Your mind is capable of creating the right environment for you.

    Change Your Associations

    If you want to see yourself progress, take time to reflect on the kind of associations you have. The relationships we maintain have a huge impact on our lives.

    Relationships that are not handled properly can be a distraction to your personal development.

    The associations you keep have an influence on your life. Start with your friends because they have a bigger influence on your social life. They say birds of the same feather flock together.

    Some of the people we hang around with are not beneficial. They are toxic. Cut of all relationships that have a negative influence on your life.

    You cannot expect meaningful change when you continue going to the club with your old pals if the problem you have is clubbing.

    If you are in a toxic relationship you need to sort that one out. For those that are not married yet, and are in toxic relationships, my advice is to quit the relationship. It is not worth it.

    If you are a girl and have a boyfriend that mistreats you, leave him. Find someone else. He will never change even when he marries you, in fact, chances are that he will be worse.

    Spiritual Growth

    The church is a good place to be. Find a Bible Based Church. You will find God-fearing people that can help you grow. For me, church is about service to the people.

    There is no greater feeling of satisfaction you can get than what you get when you are of service. A good church always encourages its members to be of service. We serve without expectation. We serve because we enjoy serving.

    There are some good folks you can find in church that will help you grow spiritually. You like it or not, spirituality is necessary for complete personal growth and transformation.

    Look, believe it or not, there is a supreme being somewhere. For me, I believe in the gospel of Jesus Christ and have found comfort in the church and reading the bible.

    Spiritual growth has many benefits, one of which is the growth of your faith and the promise of a better life.

    Have Self Control

    Self-control is the ability to restrain yourself from doing something adversely especially when you are emotionally charged.

    Learn to keep your emotions under control. Otherwise, you may end up doing something you will regret for the rest of your life.

    If you find yourself in an emotionally charged argument the best is to keep quiet and keep calm. Better still walk away. It is better to discuss when emotions have settled. That way you will be speaking with a cool head.

    Watch Your Words

    Watch your words and they become life. Be careful with what you say. They say words have life.

    The bible says “he spoke and it came to be.” I know that many of us have been careless with what we say especially when we are annoyed.

    But words truly have life, once spoken; you cannot reverse them. Yes, you may be sorry afterward but the damage would have already been done.

    Words are a direct expression of our feelings and emotions at a particular time.

    Make a decision every morning that you will not curse or swear during the day. That you will not be slanderous or say something that you do not mean.

    Make a decision that every word that comes from your mouth will be that of encouragement. It will not always go right but it is just the right thing to do.

    The magic word to use when you realise that you are wrong is I’m sorry, and please say it unconditionally.

    Conclusion

    Character is what defines a person. Change your ways and be of good character. There are many young people out there who need to be molded into young men and women with the character that can help change the world.

  • How to Enjoy the Journey of Your Life

    A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step in the right direction. Do not be discouraged by what you do not have. Your life’s journey is about to begin.

    “It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters, in the end.” Ursula Le Guin.

    Today you begin to chart the course for the rest of your life. Forget about what you did not accomplish or achieve yesterday.

    What you do not have, should give you the motivation to move your life from where you are to where you want it to be. From The state of stagnation to a state of accomplishment.

    What you do not have, you cannot lose. The most important possessions you have right now are your life and your health. These are the two most important things you should worry about. Ensure you protect them at all costs.

    Many of us are living a life that we are not happy with. This should not discourage any of us from aiming to achieve more with our lives.

    You need to start from somewhere. You need to start from where you are. What lies ahead is more than what you have left behind.

    Your current situation or circumstances should instead give you motivation for working even harder to better your life. It will not be easy, but it can be done and it has been done before.

    Your source of encouragement should be, if someone has done it before then you can do it even better by learning from them because you are not reinventing the will but working with a proven method.

    Start From Where You Are

    Do not despise the days of your humble beginnings. Start with what you have and from where you are.

    Be dedicated to your cause and give it all you have. Regardless of what amount of resources you have, just get started. Along the way, you will learn to build more resources.

    Take stock of your current possessions, especially your personal skills set. You will be amazed to learn that you have far more than you thought you had. Your human capital is more than adequate to get you started.

    God has given all of us, unique talents to enable us to do something worthwhile with our lives. If only you can unlock them they are the gateway to a better and more fulfilling life for you. Life is much easier when you are doing what you love.

    If you have been waiting for the right moment to start,  today is that moment. It is the right time to take that leap of faith and move into the unknown.

    Today is the day you will look back with pride and appreciate that you took decisive action and stepped into the unknown.

    Your journey to conquer your fears and experience life begins with the step you are taking.

    Have courage and faith that you will enjoy your journey. Yes, there will be rough patches here and there, but with God by your side, you will triumph.

    Make Everyday Count

    Every day of your life is a blessing, make it count. You are the master of your soul. No one on this earth will make you happier than yourself.

    You are most happier when you are doing the things that you love doing. Time seems to stop when you are enjoying what you do.

    Enjoy these moments and make sure you do more of them very often. Life is too short to be sad. Make every day a special one.

    Not everything will go accordingly but decide to be happy regardless of the situation.

    You owe it to yourself to live a happy and fulfilling life. You are special in the eyes of God. Do not let anyone take that away from you.

    No one has the right to dictate or influence your current situation without your permission. Not even your spouse, your boyfriend, or whoever, they have absolutely no right without your permission.

    You cannot give an excuse that it was so and so who led me to do Something wrong. I find these excuses childish.

    If you are in the wrong place it is your choice. You can either stay or move, the choice is yours to make. But make sure to make the right choice.

    The best way we can contribute positively to humanity is by ensuring that our own lives are a reflection of what we want. If we profess Christianity people must see Christ living in us.

    We must be the change we want to see in the world. That change begins with you and I changing the way we think, the way we do things, and the way we treat others.

    Take Charge of Your Life

    You are responsible for your life. No one is answerable for your life. It is your right. If you think someone will give an account for you, then you are mistaken.

    Nature demands that each and every one of us account for our conduct. It also demands that we do the right things. I know that it is in our nature to do the right things.

    I also know that we have a tendency to do otherwise. God help us.

    Your life is in your hands. You are responsible for making sure that you account for it and make meaningful contributions to humanity. It is your duty to make the world a better place than you found it.
