10 lessons from John Maxwell's book Success Is a Choice: Make the Choices that Make You Successful:

1. Believe in yourself. The first step to success is to believe in yourself and your ability to achieve your goals. If you don't believe in yourself, no one else will.

2. Fire up your passion. When you're passionate about what you're doing, you're more likely to be successful. Find something that you're passionate about and pursue it with all your heart.

3. Initiate action. Don't just sit around and wait for things to happen. Take action towards your goals every day.

4. Focus your energy. Don't try to do too many things at once. Focus your energy on the most important things that will help you achieve your goals.

5. Develop good relationships. Relationships are essential for success. Build strong relationships with people who can support you and help you achieve your goals.

6. Embrace practice. The more you practice, the better you will become. Practice your skills on a regular basis.

7. Persevere through setbacks. Everyone experiences setbacks from time to time. Don't give up on your goals when things get tough. Persevere through the setbacks and keep moving forward.

8. Learn from your mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes. The important thing is to learn from your mistakes and move on.

9. Celebrate your successes. Take the time to celebrate your successes along the way. This will help you stay motivated and keep moving forward.

10. Give back to others. Once you've achieved success, give back to others and help them reach their goals.

Maxwell's book is a powerful and inspiring guide to achieving success. It is a must-read for anyone who wants to live a more fulfilling and successful life.

Here is an additional lesson from the book:

Talent is not enough.

You need discipline.
You need dedication.
You need character.

More men have failed, not for lack of talent but for lack of character.

17/11/2023

Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not: nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not: the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.

FOR THOSE STRUGGLING WITH CLARITY

On social media, it's very easy to see everyone going about their business and wonder why you still don't know what you want to do.

For some people, they get depressed. But over here, we ask questions. We always respond to situations with a mind fixed on finding solutions.

So, how do you find your own path?
How do you discover your purpose?
What shows you what you're meant to be doing?

Before I answer that, let me branch a little. If you're confused, that's a good thing. Yes, because it shows you are ACTIVELY THINKING about your life. An unconcerned person can not struggle with confusion because it has never even crossed his mind. But here you are, taking the first step and I celebrate you. Little things like this count. You're aware now, so you have higher chances of finding clarity.

Back to our question.
Here's my answer.

Clarity is a journey. You might not know exactly what you want to do your whole life but you can CHOOSE what you want to do NOW.

I placed special emphasis on 'choose' because most times, people don't think they are the ones to decide what to. They keep waiting for a special moment or out of body experience to REVEAL what they should do.

I believe we're free will agents responsible for all our decisions including what we decide to call our vision. Pick yours. Choose something you find worthy and make it your focus for now. Yes, I said for now because your interest might change with time. Do not be so worried about stability or sticking to one thing forever. People evolve.

Is there something you love at the moment? Make it the centre of your attention.

Is there something people compliment you about often or something you do easily? You might want to explore it more.

And just in case, you find more than one thing attractive, that's not a problem. I'm a writer, public speaker, spoken word artist, founder of a fashion brand, director of two NGOs, a coach and lots more. Yet, I'm a big name (even if I say so myself) in all these industries. And what's the secret? PERIODIC ATTENTION. I started out as a writer and built influence with it. When I had solidified my brand, I diversified and added public speaking. That was how I gradually introduced them all and took time to focus on them at specific times till I could juggle them all comfortably. So, pick one, probably your favourite or easiest to monetize and after solidifying yourself as an authority in it, you could diversify. Or you might even drop one along the way. Or deleg*te its daily operations.

Don't put yourself in a box.

So, what are you MEANT to be doing?
It's totally up to what you CHOOSE to do.

You've spent too much time thinking about this already. Pick and get to work. There's always room to switch if you discover it's not what you want to do anymore.

Let me stop here.

I am sure we understand.

15 POWERFUL LESSONS FROM THE BOOK “THE MAGIC OF THINKING BIG”

1. GET THE ACTION HABIT :

Don’t wait until conditions are perfect. They never will be. Expect future obstacles and difficulties and solve them as they arise.

2. Be an activationist. Be someone who does things. Be a doer, not a don’t-er.

3. Remember ideas alone won’t bring success. Ideas have value only when you act upon them.

4. Start your mental engine mechanically.

Don’t wait for the spirit to move you. Take action, dig in, and you move the spirit.

5. Use action to cure fear and gain confidence.

Do what you fear, and fear disappears. Just try it and see.

6. Think in terms of now. Tomorrow, next week, later, and similar words often are synonymous with the failure word, never.

Be an “I’m starting right now” kind of person.

7. Get down to business—pronto. Don’t waste time getting ready to act. Start acting instead.

8. Seize the initiative. Be a crusader. Pick up the ball and run. Be a volunteer. Show that you have the ability and ambition to do.

9. MANAGE YOUR ENVIRONMENT( GO FIRST CLASS):

Be environment-conscious. Just as body diet makes the body, mind diet makes the mind.

10. Make your environment work for you, not against you. Don’t let suppressive forces—the neg*tive, you-can’t-do-it people—make you think defeat.

11. Don’t let small-thinking people hold you back. Jealous people want to see you stumble.

Don’t give them that satisfaction.

12. Get your advice from successful people.

Your future is important. Never risk it with freelance advisors who are living failures.

13. Get plenty of psychological sunshine. Circulate in new groups. Discover new and stimulating things to do.

14. Throw thought poison out of your environment. Avoid gossip. Talk about people, but stay on the positive side.

15. Go first class in everything you do. You can’t afford to go any other way.

Thanks for reading.

Never be afraid to seek knowledge from others. It is imperative for your success!

26/07/2023

This is for those in their late teens and twenties who want to escape the rat race.

There's a difference between our wants and our needs, and you must learn the difference and order your priorities accordingly. Use a scale of preference to write them out starting from the most important ones to the ones that can be put on hold.

That you want something doesn't mean you must have it now. If you keep getting things based on your whim, you might find yourself unable to afford things that do matter in future. Making money is not enough, learn financial discipline, how to save and how to invest. Have a percentage of what comes in that you always put aside. This doesn't depend on how much you earn, that's why I said percentage instead of giving a specific amount. If you think you have to earn more to save, more will come and you'll think you need some more again before you start. It is the habits you cultivate early that stay with you.

Here's a question- can you account for where 95% of your income is spent monthly? Can you point at unnecessary things you can cut back on?

The habit of delayed gratification is one that might seem inconvenient at the present but pays off in the long-term.

Don't eat your seeds because you see others enjoying their harvest. When they were planting, you were still on your way to farm. Perhaps, you were still just waking up.

Forget social media and the lifestyle comparison that it pushes down your throat. We are not all dealt equal hands, plus you don't know if that outing was sponsored by someone, so they are not even spending their money, they're investing in their future too. There's so much filtered information on social media for it to form the base of your decisions.

As much as we advice cutting down your expenses, there's only so much you can't cut. Plus, there's inflation too, so prices of things will keep increasing and what you could afford last month with 3k is now double the price. So, work on increasing your purchasing power and your streams of income. If you have a full time job, learn a digital skill you can offer to earn more. Consciously work on increasing how much you earn. Many people don't because it doesn't cross their mind or it stays as merely a wish. But you, you will take action. You will seek and you find.

It's okay if you're satisfied with living from hand to mouth. But if you desire a more financially free life, cheers to making it possible.

An Old Farmer writes to his Son who is in Prison:
"Dear Son, this year I won't be able to plant Potatoes because I can't dig the field by myself, I know if you are here, you would have helped me".

The Son writes back,
"Dad don't even think of digging the field because that's where I buried all the money I stole."

The Police read the letter and the next Day the whole field was dugged up looking for the money but nothing was found.

The following Day the Son wrote again,
'Now plant your Potatoes dad, it's the best I can do from here.
'

You can imprison me, but you can never imprison my ideas.Wisdom🙏.
