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?”

THE CHAMPIONS SERIES 65, THE WOMAN, TOPIC; WOMEN ARE IMPORTANT TOO.

  THE WOMAN WOMEN ARE IMPORTANT TOO   “The value of a woman should not be judged by her gender, but by her value and impact in her family, society and the world at large.”   She is only human, often regarded as an insignificant being. Sometimes she goes through a lot like: Abuse (physical, emotional, sexual and social abuse), domestic violence, social segregation, early marriage as well as being deprived of her human rights. Little do we know that life begins in her womb and it is in her guiding hands and tender care that it finds expression. She is a woman! Why do we rejoice so much when a male child is born but show little or no excitement if it is a female? Why do couples separate because "the wife could not bear a male child just females"? Why do we place much emphasis on training the male child than a female child? A woman is a special being and should be treated as one. Although she is considered as a weaker vessel but she has been a source of strength...

THE CHAMPION SERIES 64, THE WOMAN, TOPIC: BREAKING LIMIT.

  BREAKING LIMITS ” Oftentimes ladies become products of the opinions of others, rather become what God want them to be” In almost every sphere, a woman one way or the other has been limited or is being limited. PRICE TAG We are in a society where less is expected from the women folks. A society where a woman is seen as a second hand entity and nothing else. A society where boundaries are set for the woman in the home, church, office, community, and whenever she tries to go beyond the status quo she's questioned and ignored. Being a woman naturally comes with its own restrictions and challenges. But as women we must choose to deliberately break out from every negative and prolonged limitations. EVERY WOMAN IS DEALING WITH SOMETHING Every woman is dealing with something, either a physical weakness of some kind or past disappointments and negative occurrences which may be difficult letting go. Some may be dealing with spiritual, financial, mental, family and educational l...

POEM TITLED: WHO ARE YOU?

  Perhaps, we are not afraid to die But of our kin vanishing when we stagger with cravings Of our voices echoing in empty homes Empty homes that once roared with thrill and glee For if we sit and think of the life a single breath holds, How shortly a name sticks in our mouths, And how very shortly it vanishes We will be still With purpose in our eyes, we roam the earth The lies we live guard against reality and true persona The alarm goes off, We jump into the streets to a place we many a time hate To an environment that gives our souls treachery colours Time is a monster When it takes, it takes everything Do you know why we write our names on things? Perchance if your answer is same as mine, We should write our names on our bodies too. Then again, we do not. Because we own ourselves? No That golden recollection of who we are is what we own Especially in a world that forgets The silence can stroll in anytime The lips that once said our names will shut their doors You see, warnings ...
