THE CHAMPIONS SERIES 81 TOPIC: AIM FOR RESPECT AND HONOR

 


“A good name is better than precious ointment; and the day of death than the day of one’s birth.” Ecc7:1 Nkjv

Anyone who wants to build a lasting success must master the act of self-respect and creating positive track record.

Today the pursuit of honour and respect is fast becoming a thing of the past, because what we are after is creating wealth and pursuing fame.

True influence and wealth are built through honour and integrity.

“Respect is reciprocal” this is a true saying, you cannot earn respect when you are worthy of it. Respect comes to those who know how to give it and how to live it.



“There are so many honourable men and women by title, with true honourable men and women missing in action”

Honour is not obtained by position or office, no!

It is a function of your lifestyle and character. It is something you build over time.

Why do you respect those you hold in high esteem?

Is it because of their riches, cars or houses?

Why is it that there are people in society who are very rich, but nobody takes them seriously?

Why do you think there are famous people who are ridiculed and shunned?

Why is it that some elderly persons are disrespected without apology?

Respect and Honor are not earned by age, nor riches, it is not earned by educational status or political office. These two phenomena are earned by impeccable demonstration of character, integrity and sacrifice.

The world will always respect men who sacrifice themselves to make the world a better place, the world will always honour a man of integrity it’s only a matter of time, and the world celebrates a man of character.

Never settle for less than the best, live a respectable life, don’t pursue money and lose your integrity, don’t pursue money and be a laughing stock or topic of trivia discussions.

 

Be that guy or lady that when people call your name it will be to praise you or advise others to be like you.

 

 QUOTE OF THE DAY:

“Live every day knowing that one day you will be no more or put every day as if it is your last?”

 

Written Clarkson O. Adebayo

#THE CHAMPIONS SERIES 72, TOPIC: I AM A WOMAN

  I Am A Woman INTRODUCTION: After birth, as we grew, we were taught to understand the implication of our gender, the consequences of making wrong actions and attributes that distinguish you from the male gender. For some of us, we raised questions, our minds wondered ‘Why is it so hard to be a woman or a girl, as the case may be?’ But other times, we uttered words like ‘Thank God I'm not a man'. So we found ourselves accepting our gender definition when the condition was favorable and appealing, and also wishing we had made another choice, if we could, as far as gender was concerned. May I remind you that once you cannot accept or appreciate the fact that you came as a woman, you would always find fault in ‘being a woman', you would never consider yourself good enough as a woman. CAN I BE ANYTHING ELSE? Let's talk about me for a moment. I am a woman (well, I would define myself better as a Lady, with respect to age and marital status). But, the list progres...
