THE CHAMPIONS SERIES 84, TOPIC: 26 IMPORTANT LIFE PRINCIPLES





A- Accept; accept others for who they are. 

B- Break away from everything from anything that stands against your goals and vision.

C- Create an inner cycle of friends with whom you can share your dream with, and yank away those who only see your flaws and nothing good about your vision.

D- Decision; decide to be successful and be intentional about it. ‘Decide to be something better than what you use to be and don’t change your mind along the way.’

E- Explore; explore and experiment. There are a lot of things out there that are yet to be discovered. “What you discover is what you’ll offer to the world.”

F- Forgiveness; forgiveness is key to happiness in life. There is a great difference between a man who live in hate and one who lives a life of forgiveness. 

G- Grow; in biology, growth is defined as an irreversible increase in size, for you to be relevant to your generation you must grab every opportunity of growth. Aspire to grow in every area of your life and grow positively. 

H- Hope; always hope for the best in every situation you find yourself. Hope is a powerful tool that keeps a man focus on his goal and vision in life even when the world is against him.

Hope comes alive when it is connected to the almighty God.

I- Ignore; learn to ignore things that are irrelevant to your purpose and vision. You don’t need everything to become who God wants you to be, focus instead on those things you need, things which if you don’t possess will delay you. Ignore negative things and cynical and negative people and critics of every good thing in your life.

J- Journey; the journey to a new world, don’t be so engrossed in your past that you have become irrelevant in the present. Take a break and journey to a new world where you become relevant and impactful.

K- Knowledge; knowledge is key to success in life. No matter who are you are, where you are or where you come from, without knowledge you won’t go far in life. Knowledge depletes ignorance and gives room to development and increase.

L- Love; love as if your life depends on it. Let love lead in your life. Remember the golden rule propended by Jesus Christ, which says; “love your neighbour as yourself and love the Lord your God with all your heart. Love is key to a peaceful and joyful life.

M- Manage; manage your life, your time, your resources and your relationship, don’t leave anything to chance. 

N- Notice; you’re not alone on earth others need your help. Notice the poor and needy around you and put laughter in their faces.

O- Open; open your eyes to opportunities around you, don’t live your life looking at only challenges or problems. Within every problem or challenge is hidden opportunities. Be open-minded to the possibilities scattered around you.

When you open your eyes and mind to opportunities you’ll see them around.

P- Play; never forget to have fun after a period of hard work. Success without happiness is not a success.

Q- Question; always ask questions. Never assume that you know something. The word assumption is the most basic form of knowledge.

R- Relax; refuse to allow stress, weariness and worry rule your world.

S- Share; share your talent, knowledge, potential, resources, gift and skills with others. Always remember that your talent and gifts are meant to impact lives destinies.

T- Try; try even if seems all hope is gone, or your dream is impossible to achieve. Never quit in the pursuit of your purpose or any worthy while dream. Nothing is more frustrating than looking back at a goal you could have achieved if you had not quit or what you could have become if you had not quit. “Keep trying until you get it right.”

U- Use; use your talent, resources and gift to the best of your ability. Make sure you die empty, exhaust your gifts and talents in impacting your generation. Go to the grave empty. 

V- Value; place value on people, friends, relationship and family that have supported you in one way or another. And also aspire to live a life of value and create value wherever you go.

W- Work; work hard every time to be the best in whatever you do and wherever you find yourself.

“Every sun that rises offers a second chance.”

X- X-ray; learn to look into the heart of those around you and see the good in them. Always be an encourager to the downtrodden, how can you do this? By seeing through their packaging, you know what I mean.

Y- Yield; yield to God almighty and obey His word. You must learn to yield to good advice and changes. 

Z- Zoom; zoom off to a place where sorry, past failures, disappointments and fear won’t have any effect in your life. Always envision possibilities in every situation and see a happy ending in every circumstance.

Don’t let anything interfere with your purpose, dream, vision and happiness, see beyond your limitation and live in the reality that everything will work out for your good.

POEM TITLED: HOME

  This is what we get We know suffering like the back of our palms We know the smell of death better than our farms We know war in sick flesh We know it is in the agonizing screams of mothers and babes We know it is in the guns of soldiers that ever remain fresh Home is a divided populace of meaningless greed Home is pessimism Our fathers fill their bottomless cups with speed They keep pouring, cup after cup until their eyes form a prism This bizarre world do not motivate our mothers to chip in counsel Our families hang loose on the rope of half-light We are left to form roots lighter than parcel We remain buried in the dark, yet they call us children of light What are roots if they strangle you?

THE CHAMPIONS SERIES 85, TOPIC: THE DANGERS OF WHAT IF?

  I have thought of the best title to give this article and the above was all I could think of. So many lives have not been inspired or will I say some destinies have been limited or simply not being helped because we have always dwelt so long on these two words “ What if ” . What if, I am criticized? What if I don’t sing the song so well? What if I fail at my first attempt and many what-ifs? IN THOSE DAYS Some of my friends and I in 2012 pioneered a group called “world-changers” and in the early stage of The initiative I had so many questions unanswered within me but somehow, I was so focused on the passion burning within me to lend my little voice to the youth who was our targeted audience? I had somewhat ifs? On my mind. Then, as an undergraduate, we had days we travelled to states for strategic meetings to plan for the world changers events , I didn’t recognize the impact of that investment we were making on ourselves and others. One of the days while we went for this...
